"Si n
pa sove diyite n, Diyite n ap sove kite n."
In this quote, the first “sove” means to defend, to salvage, to save.
The second “sove” means to
run away, or to flee
“Diyite”, of course, translates dignity or self-respect
“sove kite” translates to run away from..... literally to run away and
leave.
Egzanp: Li sove kite m – He ran
away and left me.
So literally, the quote says “If we don’t defend our dignity it
will run away from us”
which basically means “If we don’t salvage our self-respect we’ll
lose it” …… something like that.
