- La maale de los djudyos se topa en el sentro de la sivdad vyeja, toda la kaleja golyendo al miskle de flores, las plasas kon las pisinas, los arvoles de portokales kon los kortijos finos avyertos para ke los turistos vijiten.
- The Jewish district is located in the center of the old city, the whole street smelling of a mixture of flowers, the plazas with the swimming pools, the orange trees with the fine open patios for the tourists to visit.
Usage notes
Unlike in Spanish, kon need not combine with pronouns in Ladino. One can simply use kon mi, kon ti, and kon si in contrast to Spanish conmigo, contigo, and consigo, but konmigo, kontigo, and konsigo are all attested as well.
