I can't make sense of the direct speech:

(ctotapmor-016) Ye’kwana (Cáceres Arandia 2021)

yööje 0-i'shaa-'se xxx edö    o-wokü-dü       susu           t-w-ö'dü-'se          kün-a'ja-aakö

‘así quiso mostrarle (pelar) xxx, quiso decir "!toma tu teta!".’

Could be [edö] [o-wokü-dü susu] 'esto (es) [su bebida la teta]'
