1 He is an upright man. 2 You must speak the truth. 3 His reputation is bad. 4 In your tribe here how many people are there ? 5 Young people are fond of pleasure. 6 Lead him out for a walk. 7 Intimidated by him. 8 Do not be in a fluster. 9 He started in a hurry. 10 It is more important to remove the impurity of the heart than the uncleanness of the body. 11 He speaks recklessly. 12 You should not heedlessly introduce his name. 13 This table is filthily dirty. 14 It is too dank in here. 15 Urgent spinning makes bad yarn. 16 Dirty people do dirty things. Proper recreation. 17 This person is not negligent, therefore his reputation is good. 18 His mind is made up, so he acts without precipitation. 19 His mind is agitated so he does things in a fluster.
