Mandaya A Day 3

past prefix = yanag/ya; example, nag-usap/nag-istorya/talked = yanagbalaw (talk = balaw)

present prefix = ya/ga; example, nag-uusap/naga-istorya/talks/talking = yabalaw/gabalaw 

future prefix = mapag/mo; example, kakausapin/istoryahon/will talk = mabalaw/mapagbalaw

amazingly, Mandaya is like French. you eat the words with a constricted breath and a narrowed tongue gently touching the palette (roof of the mouth). the odd effort will silent most of the first syllables or letter/s of the word. yanagbalaw then is silently pronounced as yabalaw. mobalaw as mabalaw.
