(cf. nkon, ko; mo, nmo, mo; ya, nya; mon, nmon; ton, nton, ta; nyo, nnyo, la, nla). N.B.

Ang id nkon (ko). My dog. Ang kon amy tiglang na. Ang amay nkon (ko) tiglang na. My father is now old. 2) in the meaning of a predicative adjective kon is always used and never nkon or ko.

Sa ualy duhdha pagaduwon ko (nkon) si. Dl bal matod nga nabayran ko (nkon) si? But if the verb is negatived kon cannot be used; nkon or ko must then be employed and be placed between the negative adverb and the verb: Wal ko (nkon) pagbuhta in. This was not done by me. Dl ko (nkon) malipatn in. I cannot forget it. Ind ko (nkon) malngkang inng bat, kay mabg-at gid. I cannot move this stone, for it is very heavy. Ind pa nkon (nd ko pa) mapyan ang bg-o ko nga baly, kay wal ko pa (ual pa nkon) pagbutang sing mga galamitn nga kinahnglan.

I neither invited him nor will I invite him, because he has vicious habits. 5) in sentences where the verb is preceded by a quasi-auxiliary or by adverbs of time or place like sarng, but, din, dir, dir, sn-o pa, etc. nkon or ko should be used before the verb, even if the latter is not negatived, e.g. Sarng ko mabhat in. I can do it. But ko mnon inng bino. I wish or like to drink this wine. Sn-o ko pa (sn-o pa nkon) mapatndog ang bg-o nga baly? When shall I be able to build the new house?

c, This letter was formerly used after the manner of the Spanish c. It had a k sound before a, o, u, l, r, and at the end of syllables and words and an s sound before i and e. In conformity with modern usage k and s are employed in this dictionary instead of c, except in the spelling of some foreign expressions. Even words of foreign origin are now quite frequently adapted to suit the modern Visayan orthography and terms like consul, acacia, concejo, etc. become knsul, aksya, konsho, etc. Hence words written with c under the old spelling will be found in this dictionary under k or s. All historic and sentimental reasons that can be brought forward for the letter c have apparently no weight with the present generation, whose ideals are uniformity, standardization and practical results in preference to other considerations.

d, The letter D in Visayan is pronounced as in English. D after various prexes such as pan-, hi-, ha-, etc. is very frequently either elided, or changed into N, e.g. panhon (dhonleaf); panlap (dlapto lick); hinangt (dngatto reach); hanmdum (dmdumto remember), etc. D followed by a sufx is often (especially in Hiligynon) turned into R, e.g. tahron, katahurn, matinahron (thudto respect); ginsugran (sgudto commence); palabuarn (badto breed), etc. See also padngparng; daddar; tdungtrung; tudkturk, etc.

e, The Visayan language has a vowel-sound that is neither that of Spanish e nor of Spanish i, but occupies a position somewhere between the two. Consequently this sound is represented sometimes by e and sometimes by i, even in spelling the same word, e.g. babye, babe, babyi, babi; bebngka, bibngka; bgne, bgni, etc. In choosing between the two vowels i has a better claim to recognition than e, for the following reasons: 1) The full open sound of e is never heard in Visayan, whereas i is often very clearly and sharply pronounced. 2) Whilst it is true that in many words the sound, of which we have spoken, is vague, yet as a rule it approaches i more nearly than e. The conclusion is that i can always be used, and that e might without loss be abolished from the Visayan Alphabet. The following words under e are given, because, although they are of Spanish origin, yet they are frequently used in Visayan. ebanhelsta, (Sp. evangelista) Evangelist. ebanhlyo, (Sp. evangelio) Gospel, evangel, good tidings. bano, eban, (Sp. bano) Ebony.

i, The letter i is pronounced in Visayan as in Spanish, except when it has an abrupt sound as in the words:dal, daldl, tah, hib, etc. To avoid an hiatus i slurs into a following vowel as if a y had been inserted, and in fact y is often inserted in modern spelling, e.g. his, hiys, tin, tiyn; os, yos, etc. However a distinct hiatus occurs when an abrupt i is followed by a vowel, e.g. dali, dali-, not daly; tahin, tahi-n, not tahiyn; ginharan, ginhar-an, not ginharyan, etc. (From dal, tah, hr, etc.). i-, A prex used: 1.) in forming all the passive tenses of many verbs having a passive in i.

Iginahtag (ginahtag) nya in sa kon. He is giving me this. Iginhtag (ginhtag) nya in sa kon. He gave me this. Pagaihtag gid nya in sa kon. He will surely give me this. Wal nya pagihtag in sa kon.

j, The soft Visayan aspirate is best represented by the letter H pronounced as in English. Therefore the letter J can be dispensed with in writing Visayan, even when Spanish words occur, such as:Jesucristo, Jos, alhajas, etc., which are spelled:Hesukrsto, Hos, alhas, etc.

k, This letter has the same sound as the English c in cat, come, cut, fact, etc., but is pronounced a little softer than ck in lack, pack, struck, etc.. Modern writers almost exclusively employ k, where formerly c (before a, o, u, all consonants and hyphens, and at the end of words) and qu (before e and i) were used. Bearing this in mind it is easy to nd in this dictionary expressions originally written according to the old spelling, as ac, cac, catac, ccac, bc-h, bc-it, bquid, ququic, etc., under ak, kak, katak, kkak, bkh, bk-it, bkid, kkik, etc. The prexes pan-, hi-, ha-, etc., if composed with words beginning with the letter k, become pang, hing, hang, etc. and the k drops out, e.g. kars pangars; kalyohingalyo; kuys hanguys, etc. ka, A particle employed to connect a cardinal or ordinal numeral with a noun or with another numeral. Ka is also used after distributives, and after the indenite pil, whenever the latter has the meaning of how many or few, e.g. Duh ka pl ka lbo. Twenty thousand. Ttlo ka gats ka lbo k to. Three hundred thousand men. Lim ka karabw. Five buffaloes. Am in ang ikapl nla ka ank. This is their tenth child. Sa ikawal ka (nga) dlaw sa blan sa Enro. On the eighth day of January. Pil sil ka to? How many are they? Mga pil lmang ka to ang nagtalmbong. Only a few men attended. Nakabton sil sing tagnapl ka mngmang. They received ten pesos each. ka, (H) Personal pronoun, often used for ikwyou (singular). Sn-o ka bal? Who are you? Din ka makdto? Where are you going to? Ginbayran ka na nya sang ya tang sa mo? Has he paid you what he owed you? ka-, Short for maka- or naka-. Ind ak kakdto ddto. I cannot go there. (kakdtomakakdto). Kaabt (nakaabt) na si dir? Has he arrived? Has he come? ka-, A prex of very wide use in the formation of abstract and collective nouns as well as of an exclamatory superlative which nearly corresponds in meaning to the English How! e.g. lamkalam (wisdom, learning); psankapsan (diligence, application); pntaskapntas (cruelty); ngotkaangtnan (connection); lbutkalabtnan (participation, implication); uyng kahinguyngan (outlay, expenditure); btkabatan (childhood; children);

v, This letter does not belong to the Visayan Alphabet. Wherever it occurs in terms taken from other languages b is generally substituted, e.g. vinobno; vigiliabihlya; evangelioebanhlyo.

w, As this letter does not belong to the Spanish Alphabet it does not occur in Visayan literature previous to the American Occupation; o and u were generally used in its place. At the beginning of a syllable its correct pronunciation is almost identical with (or just a shade softer than) the w in English words as wag, well, will, woe, would, etc.. At the end of a syllable after a it forms the diphtong aw (e.g. daw, twtaw, swsaw, lnaw) that is nearly equivalent to the English ou in out, about, loud, etc.. At the end of a syllable after e or i its correct pronunciation is quite peculiar and can be learned only by hearing, e.g. bagw, barw, sirw, twbew, etc. It is to be remarked that many Visayan words ending in o or u lose these vowels in some verbal forms and in terms derived from them and take the letter w instead, e.g. bywon, salywan, gmwan, spwan, kaburywan, etc. (from bay, salay, gam, sap, buy, etc.). way, way, For wal singthere is none, etc. Way ak kwrta.
