I thought that I had checked everything enough times, but my attempt to copy the N'Ko language translation didn't work as intended. N'Ko appears to be a right-to-left language, and Google Mail has problems when I try to write both RTL and LTR languages in the same email subject line or same email paragraph. (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_system#Directionality.) Sorry about that. Let's see if this comes across correctly: "ߡߎ߲߬ ߞߵߌ ߟߊ߫ ߛߍߥߊ߫ ߞߎ߲߬ߢߐ߮ ߣߌ߲߬ ߞߘߐ߫؟".
