Hmm... tigog (p)om tumingaa/kotingaa tavan
I hardly use the above expression. My mother was fond of it. She was very conservative in a good way. Money wise, she was good at handling, for example. Say I went on a spending spree, without any care for any time after, could launch the expression from her.
Hmm... tigog (p) om tumingaa/kotingaa tavan
English translation : 1) Hmm... may end up craning (one's) neck/ consulting the sky.
Alarming! Like belly up too. Oh, save that sight.
Posturing to the sky above to miraculously grace a shower of fortune.
Ya, ya, next to squander. Better make a habit of saving. Money or in-kind. Going overboard is un necessary.
Au zou insan katanud sumuang pias doungosodop mokiuung hampun. I have no personal account of a nocturnal outing in a jungle for durian wake/mokiuung hampun. Nakaandad zou mah hampun id daadatad nouung. "Asapou toomod tuva hampun". I like that sound. Dadi.... I want to recapture nuances of my first language, Kadazan. Nung mokiiuung hampun ko boos Kadazan : Welcome to my blog. Enjoy!
