Free translation:

When people get old, other people's name is easy to be forgotten. 

Word gloss: 

1. nu: if or when
2. me-vulung: become old. me- 'agent marker, involving change of status'; the root is vulung 'old'. 
3. a: subject case marker
4. caucau: people
5. ma-djele-anga: to become easy already. ma- 'to be in the condition of'; the root is djele 'easy, simple'; -anga 'COS'. 
6. a: LIG
7. ma-alim: to be forgotten or be caused to be forgotten.  The root is alim 'forget something/someone'. malim or madraudraw means 'to forget something or someone' in a AV structure. If we use malim or madraudraw, the main part of the utterance will be madjeleanga a malim/madraudraw tua ngadan nua caucau. This word also breaks a previously established phonological rule which says Paiwan languages avoids vowel clusters. maalim, madjeleanga are two examples. You hear clearly how two vowels stand next to each other. 
8. a: subject case marker. 
9. ngadan: name
10. na or nua: of, GEN
11. zuma: others
