I’m collecting #Translation (s) of the phrase “I voted” for an upcoming art #Quilt project

Interested in #languages spoken in the #SanDiego region of the US including #Kumeyaay #Chinese #Japanese, #Korean #Hmong #Thai #Laotian #Vietnamese #Tagalog #Portuguese #Russian #Armenian #Greek #Polish #Hindi
#Persian #Somali #Dari #Pashto

My #Quilting style works best with a Latin alphabet, but I may be able to replicate non-Latin scripts if they aren’t too curvy

TIA!

More on "quern": a survival of Proto-Indo-European *h₂ in Pashto?

As I posted before, "quern" comes from #Proto-Indo-European *gʷerh₂-nu- like this:
🔈http://www.ancientsounds.net/eastern-origins/quern-from-PIE-gwerh2n.wav

*gʷerh₂- also developed into [gur] in #Pashto and #Punjabi
🔈http://www.ancientsounds.net/eastern-origins/PIE-gwerh2-to-Punjabi-gur.wav

This recording of Pashto ګور [gu:rħ] ends in a voiceless pharyngeal fricative
🔈http://www.ancientsounds.net/eastern-origins/Heston-Pashto-gurH-heavy.wav

I don't know if this is normal, but Iranian languages do preserve some PIE "laryngeals" as consonants
