Gilbertese Rosary Prayers
This language is also known as
Kiribati and Ikiribati.
This language is spoken by 60,000 people in
in Kiribati, which is the former Gilbert Islands. It is now called
Kiribati (pronounced Ki-ri-bas, the native pronunciation of "Gilberts".) The Kiribati islands are primarily coral reefs consisting of hard sand and little soil surrounding lagoons. Included in the group of islands is Christmas Island (Kiritimati), Tarawa, Banaba Island, the Phoenix Islands, and a portion of the Line Islands.
It is also spoken in Tuvalu, Fiji, Nauru,
Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu.

See also The Work of God's Children page for the illustrated version of prayers in this language.

E rau te bong, e mimitong!
A raoi bwai ni bane.

In the official arms used by the Gilbert Islands since 1969, the motto in Gilbertese is "Maaka te Atua, karinea te Uea; mataku i te Atua fakamamalu ki te tupu," which is rendered in English as "Fear God, respect the King. "
