Ndingabaleka ngawo.

I can run with it.

Ndingaxhuma ngawo.

I can jump with it.

Ndingadanisa ngawo.

I can dance with it.

Ndingaqubha ngawo.

I can swim with it.

Ndingatsiba ngawo.

I can skip with it.

Ndingakhaba ngawo.

I can kick with it.

Ndingasuka ndihambe ngawo.

I can escape with it.

Kodwa andingekhe ndibhabhe ngawo.

But I can never fly with it.
