Okay. I like to share with you all some Tausug words.
-
* Lasa - (love) yes. It means love. It kinda sounds awkward especially if you are Tagalog since lasa means taste in tagalog. You say I love you in Tausug as: Kalasahan ta kaw or Malasa ako kaymu. ( I know. It sounds weirder as we go on. haha.)
* Lingkat – (beauty) You say You are beautiful in Tausug as: Malingkat kaw.
* Dupang – (crazy or fool) Yeap. If you heard me saying this to you, I hope you know the meaning already. :P
* Hapdi – (hunger) Hyapdi ako means I’m hungry.
* Sibi - (little)
* Laggu – (big)
* Kalas – (pink) So, lilpink is sibi-kalas. hahah. It’s absurd. Just absurd to hear. :P
* Mairum – (black beauty) You can say malingkat to any girls but mairum best describes those girls who do not have fair complexion.
* Dayahan – (rich)
* Miskin – (poor)
* Mangih dagbus - (ugly) You say You are ugly as Mangih kaw dagbus.

Haha. I was like a dupang when I was encoding this post. ;D I kind of find it hard to look for Tausug words to post in here. Anyway, that’s all for now. I hope you learn something.
