The girl ran around the tree and hit the ball.
11 words*, 15 symbols, 15 syllables, 15 morphemes; isolating
*This is a dubious guess. Except for 矮女, there is no clear polysyllabic word (although it can be broken down to "small woman"). I counted 团驰去 (to run around, literally "round fast go") and 足岩 (to kick, literally "foot hit") as well.

18 morphemes but because the noun-prefixes are an essential part of the word for the meaning, they are often not counted as separate like this. Also, the -a endings on native Bantu verbs could be thought of as a meaningless affix or as a part of the stem that gets replaced by other morphemes in some situations.
