PREFACE

The whole of the Sulu portion of thin work is
ori<]:inal. It is the result of the lahour of luy late
brother Andson, who devoted much time to the
^tudy of several native dialects during the thirteen
years he resided in the Island of Sulu and various
parts of Malaya. That he attained an unusual
proficiency in the Sulu and Malay languages is well
known, and his voluminous notes in my possession
-are evidence of the careful investigation which he
bestowed upon the Sulu before placing it against
its English and Malay equivalents. All the in-
accuracies and literary imperfections to be met
with in these pages are attributable to my short-
-comings ; however, as I did not undertake the editing '
of this volume from choice, but from a sense of
duty, I trust to the indulgence of critics and those
for whose benefit it is intended. The idiomatic
Phrases and Sentences have been constructed to
-employ nearly every Sulu word in the vocabulary.

PKEFACE.

The Author's object in adding Malay, to what he
originally designed as a Sulu work only, was to ac-
celerate the further fusion of two dialects which have
so much affinity and which will make the language
of North Borneo the English of the farther East.

I have to acknowledge my indebtedness to
Marsden's Dictionary of the Malay Language, and
to Maxwell's Manual of the Malay Language for
material and information which have aided me in
constructing the Malay part of the Introduction.
From a small Sulii vocabulary,* by my esteemed
friend Mr. Thomas Henry Haynes, I have adopted
a few nautical terms.

INTRODUCTION

The Sulu language is formed chiefly from Bisaya
and Malay. Its similarity to both, in grammatical
construction, is very marked, yet the distinction
colloquially is most remarkable. It is spoken by
all the natives of the Sulu and Tawi-Tawi archi-
pelagoes, and by a very considerable portion of
the inhabitants of Magindano, Palawan, Balabac,
Basilan, North Borneo, Darvel Bay and the adjacent
Islands, extending southward as far as Cape
Kanyongan, including the State of Balongan. These
places, at one time, were all tributory to the Chief
termed the Sultan of Sulu. They have been
described by Burbridge, in his Gardens of the Sun,
as '^Beauty spots of the Eastern Seas, . . .
** blessed with the heat and glory of eternal summer ;
** warmed by perpetual sunshine, deluged by copious
" rains, and thrilled by electricity ; . . . enormous
** conservatories of rare birds and curious animals ;
** where man is the Adam of a modem Eden, primi-
** tive in habits, and numerically insignificant.**

The Sulu nobility all write with a certain amount
of facility. Like the Malays, they have adopted the
Arabic character with certain modifications. They,
however, always employ bdris or signs to assist them

X INTEODUCTION.

in distinguishing their vowels, whereas the Malays
generally leave them out.

The Sulu people are a bold, fearless race, and,
up to a very recent date, were most notorious
pirates. In their lovely isles they lived compara-
tively contented until their ancient enemies the
Spaniards gained a footing amongst them. Now all
is changed ! Spanish rule is hateful to them and
many are leaving the Sulu archipelago for
British North Borneo. In time they should make
valuable subjects to the Chartered Company, but,^
■whilst taming, they will require very careful treatment .

The primary object of this work is to assist the
Europeans of North Borneo in acquiring a know-
ledge of Sulu to enable them to converse with the
Siilus in their own dialect rather than through the
medium of Malay, which, although understood by
many, is still a foreign language to them.

The advantage to those already conversant with
Malay in having the Malay equivalent of each
Sulu word in juxtaposition is obvious.

The system of orthography adopted is similar to
that employed by Marsden in his Dictionary of the
Malay language.

The hard sound of ch as in character is repre-
sented by k, as — kalachiccho, cartridge.

INTRODUCTION. XIII

OF GRAMMAR.

The grammar of the Sulu language is very similar
to that of the Malay.*

I. NOUNS.
Nouns, both in Malay and Sulu, undergo no
change to indicate number, gender, or case.
Number.
Number, when not sufi&ciently clear in the context,
is denoted ** By the use of separate words expressive
of plurality and singularity ** — as, ma-taudy many ;
mUnga, some ; — or by specific numerals. It is also
sometimes expressed by the duplication of the noun;
•e. g., bdtu, stone; bdttc-batu, stones.

The particle ma as prefixed to adjectives, in the
Sulu, signifies intensity of their power. In some
instances when it precedes certain nouns it denotes
plurality; e. g., in kuday the horse; in ma htLra^
the horses.

Gender.
Differences in the sexes are, with two or three
exceptions, denoted by the following words expressive
of the sex : —

Sulu. Malay.

TJsog, male Laki-laki, male

Bahaiy female Perampuan, female

The above should always be applied to persons,
but may be applied to animals.

The following should be applied to animals only:-
Mandangany male Jantan, male
* All the examples not in italics are Malay.

XIV INTEODUCTION

Omagak, female Betina, female

The exceptions are mostly titles, as —
Junjong-an, Sultan.
Pangi-an, Sultana.
Ddyang, Lady.
Tfian* Sir or Mr.
Cases of Nouns.
Both in Sulu and Malay the modifications of the
sense, as in English, are expressed by prepositions :-
English. Sulu. Malay.

To pa ka, kapada, sema

For kan akan

With ibaii dengan

At ha di

From dien-ha deri-pada

By dien-pa ulih

Examples.
Pa baiy to a house.
Die^i ha bai, from a house.
Ha bdi, at a house.
Ha guah bai, out of a house.
Ha ids baiy on top of a house.
Ha sum bdi, beneath a house.
Kan Allah taala, unto God.
Iban tdbang sM nabl, with the help of the prophets
Where the noun is the subject of an action, a pre-
position is not generally required ; e. g. —
Sdh-a in kdyu, light the fire.
*In the Malay, "Tuan" under certain conditions can be^
applied to women, f Sin = of the.

INTRODUCTION. XV

Tigbak kdhdi, cut the wood.
Ma-nUla kdtuH, fell the tree.
Lesdg agGng, beat the gong.
The possessive or gentive case, in the Sola, is
expressed as follows : —

1. By placing the possessive adjunct han before
the noaii, as —

Kan bai, of the house.
Kan Sultan, the Sultan's.
Kan kapal, of the ship.
Kanpalentah, of the government.

2. By inserting the word sin (of the) between the
subject of possession and the possessor, the noun
denoting the possessor always to be placed last ; as —

Sdia sin sUga, brightness of the sun.
Ka-atds-an rni bUd, the height of the hills.

3. Simply by position, the noun, which signifiea
the possessor, to come immediately after the subject
of possession ; * as —

Ata lanang, good belonging to the Chinese.
Kura Datoh, the Datoh's horse.
The genitive or possessive case, in the Malay, is
expressed in two forms : —

1. By emplojring the possessive adjunct "punya"^
after the noun, as —

Sultan punya, the Sultan's.
Bumah punya, of the house.
Farentah punya, belonging to the government
Kapal punya, of the ship.
* In the Sulu this method is less frequently employed.

XVI. INTEODUCTION.

2. By position, *' the word denoting the subject of
possession always preceding that which denotes the
possessor ; " as —

Chaya mata hari, brightness of the sun.
Ka-tinggi-an bukit, height of the hills.

The use of the Malay "punya" should be employed
only when absolutely necessary. For instance, it is
more idiomatic to say "kuda Sultan" than "Sultan
punya kuda" (the Sultan's horse).

" The only changes, to which the form of nouns is
subject, are those which they undergo as deri-
vatives.*' This applies to both dialects.

Derivative nouns or substantives are formed from
primitive words by prefixing or affixing certain par-
ticles; and frequently both prefix and suffix are
employed in constructing a derivative noun.

They are formed : —

1. From nouns by prefixing ha and an to the
radical ; and also by affixing an only, as —

Ka-raja-an, royalty Eaja, King
Ka-datoh-an, royal Datoh, Prince
O-an, pillow 0, head

Duru-an, wet-nurse DUruh, breast

2. From adjectives by prefixing ka and affixing
an ; and also by affixing an only, as —

Ka-rendah-an, lowness Eendah, low

£a-mati-an, death Mati, dead

Manis-an, sweetmeats Manis, sweet

Ea-slpug-an, nakedness SipUg, ashamed

Kortaur-an, multitude Tavd, many

INTEODUCTION. XVII

Sdh-an, penalty Sdh, wrong

3. (i.) From verbs by prefixing ka and affixing an

to the radicals, as —

Ka-lari-an, flight Lari, to run

Ka-nanti-an, expectation Nanti, to wait
Ka-pagoi-an, flight Pdgoi, to run

Ka-tagad-an, expectation Tagad, to wait
(ii.) From verbs by prefixing pa (M. "pe") and

affixing an, as —

Pe-kirim-an, a messenger Kirim, to send
Pe-karja-an, performance Karja, to work
Pa-tog-an, sleeping-place TOg, to sleep
Pa-maigOh-aji, a bath Maigoh, to bathe

(iii.) From verbs by prefixing jpi/gr (M. "per" or

^*pel") and affixing an, as —

Pel-ajar-an, a school Ajar to learn

Per-mandi-an, a bath Mandi, to bathe

Pag-hlnang-an, work Hlnang, to work

Pug-bayad-an, payment Bdyad, to pay
(iv.) From verbs by prefixing pen, pern, and peng,

which are all adopted from the Malay, as —
Pen-churi, a thief Chun, to steel

Pem-bayar, payment Bayer, to pay

Pen-akau, a thief Takau, to steal

Pem-bUnoh, a murderer BUnoh, to kill
Also —

Peng-gali, a spade Gall, to dig

Peng-liat-an, sight Liat, to see

Pang-lta-han, sight Kita, to see

(v.) From verbs by the repetition or duplication

XVIII INTRODUCTION.

of the initial syllable, as —

Sa-sapu, a broom S&pu, to sweep

Si'Slpah, wicker ball Slpak, to kick
II. ADJECTIVES.
Adjectives, both in Sulu and Malay, have no case-
forms, no gender-forms, and no number-forms. Th^
changes they undergo in the formation of abstract
nouns have already been noticed. In simple con-
struction they generally follow their Substantive;
as —

Hari raya, a festival day.
Kuda putih, a white horse.
Kapal ma-tas, a lofty ship.
Tdu mcmgiy a bad person.
Mangi ka-suddh-an,* a bad end.
" But, when a quality is predicated of a noun, or
in other words, when in the corresponding English
phrase the verb substantive intervenes, the qualitive
is made to precede the noun, although the verb is.
not necessarily expressed,*' as —

Kechil rumah saya, my house is small.
Balk orang itu, that man is good.
Aslvl in hai sin patek, my house is small.
Maraiau tdu ien, that man is good.
Ma-putih in kura mi Idja, the horse of the King^
is white.
Adjectives may be formed from substantives by
prefixing the particles nug (Sulu) and " ber " (Malay)
as —

* There are many such exceptions in the Sulu.

CoicPARisoN OF Adjectives.
The comparative degree is formed by means-
of the words lebih (more) and dien or dien-ha*
(M. **deri" or ''deripada") or by either of them
separately.

Examples.
Lebih panas deri daholu, hotter than formerly.
Lebih manis deri-pada gula, sweeter than sugar.
Baik Ini deri itu, this is better than that.
Ini-lah suchi deri-pada lain, this is cleaner than the

other.
Lebih pOso dien ta^TUihy hotter than formerly.
Maimoh dien-ha sukal, sweeter than sugar.
Ma/raiau dl dien dun, better here than there.
Lebih mahanet Ini dien-ha ietu, this is more difficult
than that.
The superlative degree, in the Sulu, is formed by
placing the words tiid (most) or pakaraiau (very, ex-
cessively) after the positive. In the Malay, it is-
formed (1) by prefixing the intensive particle "ter;"
(2) by an adverb to which that particle can be pre-
fixed ; (3) by either placing the word " s'kali " (en-
tirely) or " amat *' (exceedingly) after the adjective.
Examples.
Ter-bersdr, very great.
Ter-lebih tuah, extremely old.
Putih s'kali, perfectly white.

* Dien or dien-ha=deri or deri-pada = than, from.

INTEODUCTION.

Besar amat, exceedingly big.

Amu Ini in maraiau ttid, this is certainly the best.

In gabok titd, the worst.

Maraiau pakaraiau, very good.

Maraiau tud, the best.

Ma-tambok pakaraiau, excessively fat.

Positive. Comparative. Superlative.
<English) Hot hotter hottest

(Sulu) Paso lebihpaso nm-paso tud

<Malay) Panas lebih panas panas s'kali

The ma prefixed to adjectives, in the Sulu, seems
to be a contraction of the Sanscrit word maha (great),
introduced through the Malay. It tends to intensify
the power of those words with which it is employed.
The duplication of adjectives increases their
qualifjring power.

III. NUMEEALS.
The nimierals in both dialects are very simple.
The cardinal numbers are : —

The term which represents ten, in the Sulu, is partly
Bisaya and partly Malay; Jiang ^^one, and poh is a
contraction of "piiloh** (ten).

From eleven to nineteen inclusive the nmnerals, in
the Malay, are formed by adding bias to the cardinals.

It will be observed that they are formed in the
Sulu, by a different arrangement : —

INTEODUCTION.

In the Malay, the decimal numbers, from ten up
to ninety inclusive, are formed by placing the
digits before the term which represents ten. In the
•Siilu, they are formed by prefixing Tea and affixing
uh to the cardinals : —
Twenty
Thirty
Forty
Fifty
Sixty
Seventy
Eighty
Ninety
One hundred ang-gdtus or rdtus sa-ratus

The intermediate nimibers, in the Sulu, from ten
upwards, are formed by inserting the word tug
between the decimals and the units. In the Malay,
they are formed by adding the units to the decimals ;

IV. PEONOUNS.
The pronouns of the First Person are : —

English. Sulu. Malay.

(Singular) I, me aku, kti, patek aku, ku, saya

(Plural) We, us kdmi, klta kami, kita

" Kami ** and *' kita/* in Borneo, are frequently em-
ployed in a singular sense, therefore, the necessity
sometimes arises of accentuating the plural. This is
done, in the Malay, by adding the word " orang "^
(people) to '*kami" or "kita.** In the Sulu it is done
by the use of separate words expressive of plurality
or by specific numerals but not by the word tdu,
which, in other respects, is the equivalent of the
Malay word " drang.**

Aku is employed both by superiors and inferiora
in Sulu. In the Malay, it is generally employed by
superiors in addressing their inferiors or servants.
**Hamba*' (your slave, or, your servant), in the

INTRODUCTION. XXV

Tfian and ** inchi ** are effectively employed as^

most commonly applied to Europeans and those
natives who have made a pilgrimage to Mecca,
whilst the latter can be applied to any untitled
native who holds a position above his fellow-men.
Pronouns of the Third Person : —

English. Sulu. Malay.

(Singular) He, she, it sia, nia dia, iya

POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS.

In the Sulu personal pronouns are made ta
assume the possessive form by prefixing kan, ka, or
kai. In the Malay the word ** punya is added.*'
Singular.
My, mine ka-aku, kan-patek saya punya
Thy, thine kan-nio, ka-nio angkau punya

His, hers, its kansia, kan-nia dia punya

Plural.
Ours kan-namu, ka-naimi kita punya

Yours kai-mu kamu punya

Theirs ka-nila, kan-sila dia orang punya

follow the word denoting the object possessed.
As-^edang ku, my sword ; lima ku, my hand ;
asdwa sin taan, your wife; slmud 7iia, his or
her mouth ; bdi iw, my house ; kin^a viu, your
horse ; bai kan-nia, his or her house.

XXVI INTEODUCTION.

DEMONSTRATIVE OR DEFINITE
PRONOUNS.

*' This class may include not only demonstratives
proper, but also the definite articles, together with
relatives and interrogatives, which, in these as in
other languages, are for the most part the same
words employed in a different sense. They are
enumerated as follows " : —

that which, those, who, the.
that, those, the.
this, these,
what, which,
who, whom, which.
, who, whom, which, what,
self.

In the Malay, when the personal precedes the
reflective pronoun this is changed by prefixing
^*sin;" as—

Dia sin-dlrl, he himself. *
Angkau sin-diri, you yourself.
Hamba sin-dlri, I myself.
The demonstrative (adjective) pronouns generally
follow the word to which they belong ; as —
Tati ien, that man or those men.
Bdi Ini, this house.
Orang itu, that man or those men.
Eumah Ini, this house.

* " Nen •• is another form of yang.

INTKODUCTION. XXVII

v.— VERBS.
** The verb, in the same manner as the noun, may
be distinguished into primitive and derivative.

The primitive verb is, in its original significa-
tion, either transitive, as'* —

SuLU. Malay.

Sagau tangkap ... to catch.

Lobak pukul ... to strike.

Or intransitive, as —

Panau jalan ... to walk.

Tog tidor ... to sleep.

** The derivative verb is either the primitive
determined to a transitive or intransitive sense by
the application of particles, or it is a verb constituted
by means of those particles from other parts of
speech, as nouns, adjectives and adverbs.'*

The following inseparable particles are signs of
the verbs which express action : —

SULU.

Malay.

viam

mem

man

men

mang

meng

The above are varieties of the same particle modi-
fied to suit the initial letter of the primitive word.

The other Sulu inseparable particles prefixed to
verbs are : — Pa, mug and nug.
The transitive suffixes are : —

Sulu. Malay.

Han, hay any ay i kan, i.

Kata meng-ata

The transitive sufl&xes may be employed either
independently or in conjunction with a prefix to
enforce the transitive sense of the verb.
Examples.
Ldrut'i piidangy to unsheath a sword.
Eg-a in kiida^ let loose the horse.
Nug-kangi-han banuay to ruin a country.
Lepas-kan kuda, let loose the horse.
Meng-unus-kan pedang, to unsheath a sword.
Meng-aru-i kabun, to renew a plantation.
When reciprocity of action is required to be
-expressed the verb is repeated in both its forms, as —
Tahartg-man-ahang, to give mutual assistance.
Tangkis-man-angkis, to parry each other's thrusts.
In the Malay ** the particles or modified particle
*ber/ *bel,' *be,' denoting the intransitive sense,
are prefixed to the verb or word verbally employed
without any annexed particle ; *' as —
Malay.
Bel-ajar, to learn.
Ber-diri, to stand up.
Ber-suarak, to shout.
Ber-prang, to go to war.
Be-lari, to run away.

Mug-tindogy to stand up.
Mug-bunohy to go to war.
Milg-pagoiy to run away.
Nug-amid, to drift or float away.
Nag-dumaliongy to keep silence.
Nug-liumaiaviy to smile.
Mug and nug coalesce with any of the letters of
the alphabet.

Tenses.
The tenses, where not implied or expressed by
** some particular attribution of time,** are formed
by the aid of the auxiliaries (see paradigms, page
xxxvi) and not by any alteration in the form of
the verb itself.

The Present implied : ** hamba liat,** aku kita^
I see; **mata hari nalk," mdta siiga domag, the
sun rises.

The Present expressed with precision : ** dia ada
makan s*karang ini,** sia ka-maun sin-iniAni, he or
she is eating now; **pagi ini prau ber-layar,'* ?ia
Idyag in sakaian mahainat %ni, this morning the
vessel sails.

• Mug and nug are also prefixed to transitive verbs.

INTRODUCTION. XXXI

The Past is expressed by the words ** telah
(past), and ** sudah '* (done), in the Malay; and bakas
(past) and hohus (done), in the Sulu.

The Future, when not expresssed by some word
or phrase to indicate futurity of time, is expressed
in the Malay by the auxiliaries ** mau,*' ** handak,**
"bulih,** and **nanti;** and in the Sulu by **i)iau
bayahy** '* pug-pay*' and ** gana-gana.**

The Passive Participle in the Malay is denoted
by the prefixed inseparable particle ** ter,** the
Sulu equivalent of which is nug or nug-ka. The
particle na also denotes the passive participle in the
Sulu.

Malay. Sulu.

Ter-pukul nilg-ldbak ... struck.

Ter-tulis nug-ka-sulat ... written.

Ter-pilih nug-ka-pilipili ... chosen.

Participle Present. — Present continuity of action
is often expressed by the words ** lagi,'* ** sambil,*'
isab, viaiejiy &c., as —

Lagi datang rdtangnaJsab ... coming.
Lagi tidor matOg na isab ... sleeping.

Number and Person.

These distinctions do not apply to the Sulu and
Malay verbs.

Moods.

** The moods of the verb may be ranked as
follows, viz., the imperative, indicative or assertive,
conditional and infinitive or indefinite, which admit,
for the most part, of being expressed in the present.

Imperative. — To convey a command the simplest
form of the verb is used, as —

Malay. Sulu. English.

Bri dihil give.

Makan ka-viaun eat.

Duduk lingknd sit down.

But, to emphasize an order or command the
annexed transitive particles are frequently added to
the verb. The particles or expletives '* lah," tali or
bah are also employed to emphasize a command.
Examples. ' ^
Malay. Sulu.

Xiepas-kan anjing eg-iin erok ... let loose the

dog.
Pulang-kan mfii senda ... return the

gadei pledge.

Marl lah dl na hah ... come here.

Bangun lah hanguii tah ... waken, arise.

When the pronoun of the second person accom-
panies the imperative, it should follow the verb ; as —

Malay. Sulu.

Lari kamu dagan na hah kau ... run thou.

Jalan kam*orang panaunakdmu ... march ye.

Indicative. — '* The indicative or assertive mood
partakes of the simple quality of the imperative,
particularly in the first and second persons of the
present tense,*' as —

Malay. Sulu.

Aku mau viau hay ah na aku ... I choose.

INTRODUCTION. XXXIII

Hamba jalan panaunaakic* ... I walk.

Saya minta vilki aku ... I ask.

Angkau kata long mu ... you say.

** But it sometimes assumes both prefixed and
annexed transitive and intransitive particles,** as —

Hamba ber-kerim surat ini, I send this letter.

Saya me-nanti titah tuan, I wait your orders.
Pa-ra aku in sidat Ini, I send this letter.
Mug-tugar-i aku ha titah sin tuan, I wait your orders.

And, in the third person it admits with greater
ease the application of those particles ; as —

Dia ber-jalan dahulu, he walks first.

Dia mem-basoh tangan nia, he washes his hands.

Anjing mem-buru rusa, the dog pursues the deer.

Orang itu sudah mem-bayar utang nia, that man
has paid his debts.

Sia nug'tlniur-a in lima nia, he washes hands.

Irok miig-payihut usa, the dog pursues the deer.

Tate iaun bakas nilg-bdyad in dtang nia, that man
has paid his debts.

** In the interrogative form of the indicative the
personal is usually made to follow the verb,** as —

Apa kata kamu, what sayest thou ?

Brapa korang kamu, how many do you want ?

Ka-mana pergi kam*orang, whither are you going?

Uno long mu, what sayest thou ?

Pela in na kolang kamu, how many do you want ?

Pakaien na kamu, whither are you going ?

In those examples the verb in the Sulu precedes the subject.

Meng-apa kamu lari, why do you run ?

Di-mana angkau dapat itu, where did you get that ?

Malta kau pagoi, why do you run ?

**In the assertive form the agent or nominative
usually precedes the verb/' as —

Tukang men-egga rumah, workmen build a house.

Orang mem-!kul baban, men carry burthens.

Ujan jatoh ka-dalam laut, rain falls into the sea.

Kapal ber-layer ka timor, the ship sails to the east-

Tdu na ra hahahaUy men carry burthens.
Ulan na liolog paliim dagat, rain falls into the sea.
Kapal ndg-layag pa thnolythe ship sails to eastward.

Conditional or Potential. — ** The rules which
govern the assertive apply equally to the conditional
or potential form, the word which precedes it in
construction, and causes the verb to express a
conditional or potential, instead of an assertive or
positive sense, not affecting the application of the
transitive or intransitive particles;** as —

Malay. English.

Jeka tuan datang. If you come.

Kalau raja me-larang. If the king forbids.

The preposition dien (from) is generally followed
by the preposition ha (at, in, on), but there are
exceptions to this rule, as —

The preposition **ka'* is, in a similar manner,,
frequently followed by '*pada;** but pa, its equiva-
lent, is not followed by ha the equivalent of
** pada."

♦ " Deri " or " deri-pada," and " dien " or " dien-ha" are specially

X.— PARTICLES.

Although examples of the application of most of
the particles have been given already, there are
several which require special mention.

Tall or ta ( ** lah ") is an emphatic particle that
may either follow or be affixed to words employed
in asking a question, or expressing a command, as —
mai'tah, *'meng-apa" tab, wherefore? pa-ka-ien
tall, *' ka-mana tab,'' whither? Katoh tali, *' pergi
lab,*' go; jm gilali tali, **ka-luar lah," go out. The
elimination of tah, or ** lah," would not affect
the meaning of any of these words, but it would
make them less emphatic. Tali is also used
euphoniously.

Bah (- ** lab ") is an expletive that may either
follow or be affixed to nearly all kinds of words.
It is also employed as a particle of intensity.

Dali seems to be a modification of hah.

* Aia Tuhan ku, oh my Lord ! f Ya Tuhan ku, oh my Lord !
J Astonishment or affection.

INTRODUCTION. XLVII

Kali and tah, in both dialects, are interrogative
particles that may either follow or be affixed to
words in any part of speech that may become the
subject of a question, as — laja-tah, ** raja-kah,** is
it tlie king? pfitih kali, ** putih-kah,'* is it white?
iaan tally ** itu kah,*' is it that? KaJi is in less
general use than tah in the Sulu, wliilst the reverse
is the case in the Malay.

Na is an intensive particle and an expletive. It
also denotes the past tense.

Diy the particle of negation, generally precedes
the nominative in a sentence, as — di aku tfiaka
trtm-tumy I do not remember; di aku maka panau^
I cannot walk. Di, no ; di ttid, never.

Tfid denotes the superlative degree of adjectives
and adverbs.

Hi (- ^ ** si *') is a particle that is prefixed to
proper names, and sometimes to verbs.

Ma is an inseparable prefix. Its functions have
been noticed under nouns and verbs ; nevertheless,
it may be remarked here, when adjectives follow
their substantives via is generally omitted. It
is never prefixed to ddkolah, great ; or, aslvl, small.

Piefff a form of the prefix piigj is employed
together with the affix an in the formation of
substantives from verbs. It is also prefixed to verbs.

An, as a transitive suffix, seems to be a contraction
of han. A little care is necessary in distinguishing
it from the particle an which is employed in the
formation of substantives from verbs, &c.

XL VIII INTRODUCTION.

Kia seems to be a modification of ka.

Sa (" se) is an adverbial sign. The same effect
is . produced by sa following an adjective as b}^
adding ly to an adjective in English ; e.g., bfnialsa, -
*' se benar," truly from bfnial or benar. It will be
observed that *' se *' precedes the adjective in the
in the Malay.

ORTHOGRAPHY.

This Introduction would not be complete witlK)ut
some notice of the orthographical vagaries of many
Sulu words. These vagaries are frequently attribut-
able to dialectical differences, which are best
exemplified in those words adopted from the Malay,
but in the majority of cases they are due to the love
the Sulus have for euphonious expressions.

The euphonious changes are effected (1) by the aid
of mutable letters, and (2) by the interpolation of
an additional syllable immediately after the initial
letter or syllable of a word; e.g., k is changed
into If as kdngog, langog ; p into m, as mdgoiy
pdgoi, etc. ; tmnpang into tamumpang ; gdbau, govid-^
ban] mfdy minui\ bugit, biugit; tdbang, toindbang ;
ddg-an, domdg-an, etc. D, when it comes between
two vowels, is frequently changed into r, as edoh,.
erok ; taud, ka-taur-an ; sud, pa-sur-an.

The beginner, at first, may find these seeming
inconsistencies somewhat troublesome, but with a
little practice in the language any difficulty iiir
the matter will disappear.

^in pdtek, pardons, thousands of pardons (be exten-
ded) to this your 'slave; or 7nlki ampun in pdtek.
When addressing his Highness directly, they say
Junjongan or miinga JunjongaUj may it be your
Highness ; Junjongan being the Sulii title of the Sul-
tan. Europeans in addressing the Sultan call him
Tuan Sultan ; this is not a Sulu way of addressing
him, but it is most common among foreigners. In
speaking of the Sultan, his subjects never use Tuan
before his title but say only Sultan or Junjongan, as :
kiira sin Junjongan, the Sultan's pony ; astana sin
Sultan, the Sultan's palace.

The form so common among Malays of addressing
persons of rank, and speaking of themselves to
superiors in the third person is not so common
among Sulds. There is a more independent tone
about the people in this respect. With the excep-
tions already mentioned, aku and its abbreviation
h^t, I; Kami, we; ekauorkati, you; and kdmu with
its abbreviation mu are used alike by superiors
and inferiors in conversing with each other, but ekau
should never be used in addressing the Sultan,
although all below him may be addressed in the
second person ; e.g. : —

This (your) servant Mlki ampun in patek;

The cash current in Meinbong is called by the

by the Stilus tang si. Before the introduction of
^*tang chi/* (brass cash), the currency was iron
cash, 10,000 of which were equal to a dollar. The
Chinese name for this kind of money is ** thi cbi,'*
corrupted by the Suliis into ktlshing, the name now
applied to brass cash. A distinction is sometimes
made by the addition of tambdga, as kushing
tamhdga (brass cash), but kushing alone is gen-
erally used.
