Speak the Language

In Puzzlaria, many years ago, a secret language was developed. The language was used to communicate secret messages during war between Puzzlaria and Rationalica.
In the secret language:

"Kaf navcki roi" means "Take three pieces".

"Kir roi palt" means " Hide three coins".

"Inoti kaf kir" means "Cautiously take coins".


In the secret language, how would you say "Hide pieces cautiously"?

I figured that direct translation for "hide pieces cautiously" must be "palt navcki inoti,"
but did you guys noticed that "palt" (hide) was at the end of "hide three coins"?? So there must be some sort of grammar-thing going on there.
I think the real answer might just be "navcki inoti palt" or even "inoti navcki palt" because "inoti"(cautiously) was at the beginning of "Cautiously take coins"
Just a thought :)
