The Morphological Dictionary of Soikkola Ingrian

Hello,
My grandmother was Ingrian, but because she passed away more than 50 years ago, I must brush up on my memory. That’s why I found the morphological dictionary of Soikkola Ingrian on the Web as a bull eye. Estonian Research Information System is behind the Ingrian language project, and the dictionary is one of their studies so far.

When I installed the audio dictionary application, Windows didn’t find it safe. Despite that, I installed the application, and it works fine with the dictionary. If you install an audio application and complications occur, you can’t complain about them. It goes with all these kinds of Alfa versions.

PS If you wonder why I am using the English language here, it’s because only some people interested in Ingrian understand Finnish. On the other hand, my Russian knowledge is almost at the zero level.

Ei oo ehtoisa sia; Not a Lovely Destination

 I have written this poem using the Ingrian language that my grandmother spoke. I checked the conjugations with Wiktionary. I also looked up words from the dictionary of Ingrian dialects that I received a week ago, edited by R. E. Nirvi in 1971.

Ei oo ehtoisa sia

Miun troppa on olt kivegäs.
Siks en pölkää orastuvaa surmaa.
Miä vaa sallin, jod en synny
uuelleen tähä miraa.
Tää mailma ei oo
ehtoisa sia.

Not a Lovely Destination

My path has been rocky.
That’s why I’m not afraid
of impending death.
I only hope I’m not born
on this planet again.
This world is not
a lovely destination.

My Poem in Ingrian and in English

 I have written this poem using the Ingrian language that my grandmother spoke. I checked the conjugations with Wiktionary. I also looked up words from the dictionary of Ingrian dialects that I received a week ago, edited by R. E. Nirvi in 1971.

Miä oon väsynt 

Miä oon väsynt.
Uni ono karttant minnua.
Oon nukkunt vähä,

Oon nukkunt vähä

Miä vaa sallin,
sto koolo tulloo
ennen ko musto

In English

I’m tired.
Sleep eludes me.
I have slept badly
When the eagle in the sky flies.
I have slept badly
When an eagle owl hunts mice.
I hope
that death will come
before I lose
my memory.
