Náo bǔ shỉa pỉe súq hóa bi, shỏi nảofā súq máq ba.
Whatever water you don't need to drink, [shout and] swim in it!
I'm not sure about the "shout" part. Did I correctly hear "shỏi" or did you say something else?

nảofā is a mistake of mine, I meant to say nảodūo ("flow"), I've mixed them up, sorry.
You misheard shỉa and shỏı. All the remaining of the Toaq sentence is correct.

Ah, shỉa is just a typo, I meant to put chỉa.
