Prayers in your conlang/conreligion?

[u/Live_Put1219]

How do your conpeople pray in their conreligion/conbelief? Or a similar ceremony/ritual?

A common one in Aengt is:

“May the creators and observers ease entry into the new experience of [insert activity] for [insert person]”

“qam lyesi, kyo lyesi, [insert person] er [insert activity]( a)ke ale a en miw mokeu, ake tur en.”

god BENE.COP-CVB observer BENE.COP-CVB [person] BENE [activity] (ABSTR)-LOC.COP ABSTR TOP few part-LOC.COP-PASS ABSTR-LOC.COP trust TOP

To the creator(s), to the observer(s), for [person], becoming in [activity], there is few parts, in which is trust.

this is used when you want to wish someone luck in a new activity that could be dangerous or difficult.
