Soap tree

Acacia holosericea

Nyumirli ngu nyila-ma parrawi-ma. Wilypu manani ngulu kuyangku-ma parrawi-ma nyila-ma. Ngamarlart-ku yaluwu-ma parrawi-wu-ma. Pirrkap manani ngulu. Tarukap ngulu waninyani parrawi-yawung.

Parrawi is used for soap. They used to rub the juicy soap pods into a lather. They would collect it and wash themselves using the soap pods.
