I got a response from a tok Pisin speaker. He found two things wrong: "kaunim 
ol vot na telim yupela" should be "kaunim ol vot na tokim yupela", and "Sapos 
yu tokim" should be "Sapos yu tok". Considering that he has over 35 years of 
experience with the language, and I spent only a month learning it, he was 
quite impressed.
