Maithili to English:
एकटा प्रदर्शनी खेल काल किओ टिप्पणी कयलनि कि लागि रहल अछि कि खेलाड़ीसभ जालीक ऊपरसँ गेन्दकेँ आगा पाछाँ वॉली कऽ रहल छथि, आ शायद तेँ वॉलीबॉल एहि खेलक बेसी वर्णनात्मक नाम होइत ।
During a demonstration game, someone remarked that the players seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps volleyball would be a more descriptive name for the sport.
