Navy Department, Washington, April 6, 1917.
My dear Mr. von Preissig: The department has received through the commandant
of the naval station at Guam the manuscript of your Grammar and Dictionary of the
Chamorro Language. The energy and zeal displayed by you in the preparation of a
work of such magnitude is fully appreciated, as is also your generous offer to place the
results of your labor at the disposal of the department without remuneration.
While the department recognizes the great benefit that would accrue to the depart-
ment of education and the inhabitants of the Island of Guam through their possession
of a textbook of this character, there are not at this time funds available for its publi-
cation.
I have placed this matter in the hands of the Director of Naval Intelligence, who
will safeguard your manuscript and submit requisition for the publication of the work
when funds for the purpose shall be available.
Very respectfully,
JosEPHUS Daniels, Secretary of the Navy.
Chief Pay Clerk Edward R. von Pueissig, U. S. Navy,
Naval Hospital, Mare Island, Cal.
[Note. — Chief Pay Clerk von Preissig was promoted to be assistant paymaster,

INTRODUCTION.
By Edward R. von Preissig, Ph. D.,
Author of Etymological Comparison of the Finn-Ugrian and Magyar Idioms; Short
History of Atistria- Hungary; Political Institutions of the Old World; etc.
That the present work is the first lexicographic record in the English language of
the Chamorro idiom of the Marianas Islands, and especially of the island of Guam, is
submitted as its principal "raison d'etre," as well as the author's justification for
undertaking a task rendered exceptionally difficult through the paucity of materials
on which to base outlines, which difficulties were further amplified by the character
of the sources at his disposal. As stated in the bibliography following, only three
dictionaries are available at the present time, of which the Japanese-Chamorro Dic-
tionary contains about 60 very small pages, with a vocabulary comprising 30 pages,
presenting the Chamorro equivalents in phonetic spelling; the German-Chamorro
Dictionary, with a vocabulary of 86 pages, also adheres to the phonetic spelling and
only the Spanish-Chamorro Dictionary, published in Manila in 1865, maintains the
spelling of the Chamorro words in accordance with the representation used by the Cha-
morros of the present day, a usage which has been transmitted to them through their
mothers from generation to generation. The fact that there has been great need for
a printed record of the Chamorro language is brought into bold view by the evident
losses sustained by the spoken language since the comparatively recent date of the
publication of the last mentioned dictionary. These losses have forced themselves
upon the author's knowledge during his preliminary investigations among the natives,
when it was his ever-recurring experience to be compelled to abandon word after
Word contained in the work of the Spanish author, for the reason that they were no
longer remembered by any of the living Chamorros, and although all these words
represented, upon the most casual etymological investigation, the true genius of the
old language, they have been lost to it forever, havii^ apparently die4 with the last
generation.
Immediately upon having finished his outline plan for this Work, the present
lexicographer Was required to decide a question of the utmost importance, that of the
spelling of the Chamorro equivalents to be adopted by him. Mr. W. E. Safford,
author of the scholarly Grammar of the Chamorro Language of Guam, having given his
permission for the use of his Work, the careful study of the same offered a great number
of convincing arguments in favor of the phonetic spelling, and the Work was com-
menced in accordance with this decision. However, upon submitting the partial
fruits of his labors to the scrutiny of a number of Chamorro gentlemen, the author
Was suddenly confronted by the absolute necessity for the reversal of his con-
clusions. Whatever may have been the detailed experiences, the consensus of
opinion Was adverse to the acceptance of any innovation, pride of race and language
and reverence of ancestors and old-time traditions playing no small part in the final
decision, reluctantly but unalterably tendered, offering no compromise on the ancient,
illogical, impracticable, but nevertheless beloved, and therefore not to be changed, old-
time Chamorro method of spelling. And thus the author resigned himself to the task
of rewriting all the work done, and presents it now in the finished form appearing
(1)
herein, acceptable, and, he hopes, useful to those for ■whose especial benefit it was
planned and oct^cuteO .
Before concluding, the author ^viaiies to express the hope that his principal aim,
that of the facilitation of the work of the public schools of Guam, through the placing
into the pupils' hands of the means for the acquisition of a thorough understanding
of the meaning of the English words learned by them in the course of their school
term, may be accomplished.
It is the author 'a duty, as well as a pleasure, to acknowledge here the services rendered
by the following-named gentlemen, who assisted in verifying the Chamorro equiv-
alents in this work. Thanks for this valuable help are due to Messrs. Vicente Calvo,
Jos6 Cruz, Vicente Herrero, Pedro Martinez, Atanacio Perez, Jose Roberto, Juan
Taitano, and Francisco Taitano, all of Agaiia, island of Guam. The author also
acknowledges his indebtedness to Mr. J. Schnabel, superintendent of the schools of
Guam, for many suggestions in connection with this work, to Mrs. W. G. Johnston,
teacher in the Guam schools, to his wife, Mrs. Hester von Preissig, member of the
Guam Normal School faculty, and to Messrs. Atanacio Perez and Francisco Taitano for
assistance in the final revision. The author also desires to extend his thanks to Mr.
W. E. Safford, for permission to use his scholarly philological study of the Grammar of
the Chamorro Language, which has been of the greatest service in the preparation of
this work.

PRONUNCIATION.
a without an accent in Chamorro is pronounced the same as the "a" in father; or in
the Italian si parla Italiano.
b almost the same as in English, but it is not as hard, and there is a perceptible
tendency toward "v."
c represents the sound of "k" before the vowels "a," "o," and "u"; in Chamorro,
when it is desired to render the sound of "k" before "e" and "i," the diph-
thong "qu" is used, instead of "c."
ch pronounced the same as "ch" in chanty.
d the same as in English, but softer.
e as "a" in /ate.
f as in English.
g is pronounced hard, as in gold, before the letters "a," "o," and "u"; the sound
of "ge" as in the English get is indicated by the letters "gue," or the sound of
"gi" as in the English gimp, by the letters "gui," the "u" in both cases being
silent, except where accented (see paragraph on Accentuation); at the end of
words the "g" is sounded hard, almost like a "k."
h is always silent, and is of most infrequent use, especially at the beginning of words;
it occurs mainly in words derived from the Spanish.
i pronounced like "ee" in meet; in final syllables, "e" and "i" are almost inter-
changeable, and the apparent confusion in spelling is sanctioned by accepted
usage.
j has the sound of the English "h," but is strongly aspirated.
k is not used by the Chamorros; its sound in the English alphabet, as in kettle, is
represented by the letter "c" before the vowels "a," "o," and "u," and by the
diphthong "qu" before the letters "e" and "i"; the advisability of the phonetic
(and therefore more logical) representation of this sound was carefully considered
in carrying out the present work, in connection with various other letters of the
Chamorro alphabet, principally "j," and "11," and the adherence to the ancient
manner of spelling was decided upon only after most searching inquiry which
plainly disclosed the advisability of this course; one-half, or more, of the present
work was rewritten when the author became convinced that any change in that
direction would render his efforts futile by proving this lexicographic work
unacceptable to those for whose benefit it was planned.
I is pronounced as in English.
II carries the sound of "j " in English, but with a strong nasal twang and a trace of a
soft "d" suggested in its articulation; the letter "y" is now generally used in
the place of "11," conveying the same sound.
m pronounced as in English.
n as in English.
fi. as "ni" in onion or bunion; the same as the Spanish "n" in Nina.
ng. The pronunciation of this diphthong is somewhat difficult of description; in Cha-
morro the letters "ng," unless followed by a second "g," never convey the sound
of "ng" in the English finger; when bearing the characteristic accent extending
over both letters, the pronunciation strongly suggests a reversal of the two letters,
the combined sound being that of a gutteral "g," begun in the throat, but not
(4)
finished, and followed by a soft "n" (much the same as the "'n" in the Spanish
Nina), thus producing, first, an unfinished "g" and an "n," or the sound value
resembling "gn."
o as in no.
p the same as in English.
qu used to represent the sound of "k" before the vowels "e" and "i."
r as in English.
s represents both the sound of the English "s" and of the "z," the latter not being
used in the Chamorro alphabet; no rule can be given for the distinctive sound,
which can be only ascertained from usage.
t the same as in English.
u has the sound of "oo" in root; in final syllables there exists the same interchange-
ability between the letters "u" and "o" as has been described under the lette
"i"; thus tdotao is often spelled tdutau, it being impossible to make a proper
division on account of the sound of the last syllable, which carries a value half
way between "o" and "u."
y is pronounced nearly as the " j " in joke, but with a softer articulation.
The letters x, k, v, w, and z are not used in Chamorro.
ACCENTUATION.
Accents have been used in the present work only where they are of essential value,
or where their omission would cause a change in the meaning of the words involved.
Accordingly, the following paragraphs comprise these essentials only.
In words of two syllables the accent is usually on the first syllable, and this is the
case even though the word be adopted from the Spanish, the latter language requiring
the accent in such words to be placed on the last syllable. Thus the Chamorro
cdjet, derived from the Spanish cajel, or bdston, identical with the Spanish hast&ti,
have the accent in the Chamorro equivalent on the fu-st syllable, while the Spanish
words carry the accent on the second syllable, as noted.
In words of more than two syllables the accent is usually on the penult, as in the
Spanish, and in the case of variation from this rule, an acute accent is placed on the
syllable to be accented. Agaga (red) carries no accent, as the emphasis in this word
is on the next to the last syllable; on the other hand, dpac& (white), also written
Apacd, has the acute accent indicated over the first vowel, to indicate that the stress
falls upon the first syllable, in exception to the rule above given. Through the
addition of particles to root words the accent is often shifted, and in all such cases
must be written in. For example, tdta (father) has the accent on the fii'st syllable;
tatdjo (my father) bears emphasis on the second, and tatanmdme (our father) has the
stress on the third syllable, indicated in each case by an acute accent placed over
the vowel contained in the respective syllable. The acute accent is also used when
the syllable containing a, e, i, 6, or u is to be accented, or when the stress falls on a
syllable with a or ii, thus: mad^nao, yina'cd.
After certain words and particles there occurs a change in the vowels following.
Thus in the case of the definite article, "y," besides the complete change in the two
vowels following, as described on the first page of the "Grammatical outline," from
"o" to "e," and from "u" to "i," the prefixing of this definite article effects a change
from the open sound of the vowel "a" to that of "a" in cat or at, and somewhat
resembling the so-called "Umlaut" in the German language represented by "a."
This change is indicated by the same accent in Chamorro, two dots being placed over
the "a" when this vowel is preceded by the definite article, thus, "a."
A peculiar pronunciation of the vowels "a," "e," "i," "o," and "u," in certain
words, especially in such as may be formed by reduplication of syllables, is indicated
in the Chamorro language by the accent ^ .
"Whenever this accent occurs, the respective vowel, which generally in such words
terminates the syllable, is pronounced without change in the equivalent indicated
in the table of pronunciation; for instance, the "6" is pronounced as the "o" in no,
but while the articulation of the vowel is begun as usual, the accent effects an abrupt
and sharp termination, such as might be indicated by the sudden elision of a consonant
intended to follow the vowel.
When two vowels follow each other, such as "ii," or "ee," the separate pronuncia-
tion of each is indicated by an acute accent or by the accent '^ . In the case of "ue"
or "ui,'* when it becomes necessary to show the separate pronunciation of the "u,"
which, when following "g," is always silent before "e" and "i," unless accented, this
is accomplished by placing over it two dots, as follows: "giie," and "giii."

CONCISE GRAMMAR OF THE CHAMORRO LANGUAGE.
THE ARTICLE.
(a) indefinite article.
No indefinite article was used in the old Chamorro idiom. In the modern vernacu-
lar the Spanish un, in invariable form, with both masculine and feminine nouns,
takes its place.
Examples:
un laje (a man).
un palauan (a woman),
un patgon (a child).
un raina (a queen).
(b) definite article.
y (from the Spanish; pronounced: e) is the definite article, and is invariable; it has
the effect of changing certain letters in the nouns following.
Examples:
o is changed to e, chotda; y chetda (the banana),
u is changed to i, ptigua; y pigua (the betel-nut).
Note. — See fourth paragraph under "Accentuation " with reference to change in
vowel "a."
(c) the article before proper nouns.
Before titles and names of persons and animals: si; also si tata (the father) and
si nana (the mother).
At the end of a sentence or subordinate clause, or when the proper noun is used in
apposition: as.
For example:
y lajimo as Isaac (thy son Isaac).
y ni§inaluni as Jose (the wise Joseph; or, Joseph, the wise).
Before places, rivers, natural objects, denoted by names of no known signification:
iya; y ya.
For example:
iya catan; y ya catan (the north).
daiigculo iya Jagatna; dangculo y ya Jagatiia (Agana is large).
THE NOUN.
The grammatical gender is not known in the Chamorro language. The natural gen-
der is designated by the prefixes laje (man) or palauan (woman), and the sex of
mammals is sometimes indicated by toro (bull) or baca (cow).
Examples:
laje na manog (cock),
palauan na manog (hen),
toro na chiba (he-goat).
baca na chiba (she-goat).
(7)
NUMBER OF NOUNS.
Nouns may be of singular, dual, or plural number.
(a) Mutual or reciprocal relationship is represented by the dual number, formed by
inserting the particle um before the first vowel of the primitive word.
Examples:
ch§lo; chela (brother, or sister).
chumSlo (two brothers).
chumgla (two sisters).
perientes (kinsman).
y pumarientes (the [two] kinsmen).
(6) The plural form is indicated by sija, generally as a suflBx, but may also pre-
cede it.
Examples:
guma (house).
sija na guma (houses).
Certain nouns form the plural by taking the prefix man, which in some cases changes
the initial letter of the primitive word.
Examples:
ch to n, chelo; maneld (brother; brothers).
f to mi, fafajan; miamafajan (buyer; buyers).
c and qu to ng, Quilisyano; Manguilisyano (Christians).
p to m, pale; mamale (pater; patres).
s to fi., saque; maflaque (thief; thieves).
t to n, tailaye; m.anailaye (villain; villains).
Exceptions:
laje (man); lalaje (men).
jaga (daughter); jajaga (daughters).
patgon (child); famagii on (children).
palauan (woman); famalauan (women).
laje (man); lajijo (my son); lajimo (thy son); lajifia (his, or her, son).
lajinmame or lajite (our son); lajinmiyo (your son); lajinfiija (their son).
A kind of plural is expressed by prefixing to proper nouns the particle ja.
Example:
si ja Pedro (Pedro and his friends).
No special form is used to indicate case, and the connection of the words in
a Bentence must decide the same.
Examples:
agang si Pedro (call Pedro).
nae si Pedro nu este na leblo (give this book to Pedro). Leblo (book)
also written lebblo.
If the name of the object possessed ends in a vowel, the genitive or possessive
may be indicated by adding an n.
Examples:
y leblon Jose (the book of Jose).
si Marian quiquo (Mary, the wife of Francis).
THE ADJECTIVE.
There are but few words in Chamorro which may be considered true adjectives,
as most of them are really other parts of speech formed into adjectives, participial
adjectives, etc., by the addition of prefixes, suffixes, and infixes. In the present
work the classification given by W. E. Safford in his Grammar of the Chamorro Lan-
guage has been adopted.
GRAMMATICAL DIVISION.
(1) Qualifying adjectives. — (a) Simple adjectivea; (6) adjectival prefixes; (c) adjec-
tival suffixes; {d) conjunctive particle; (e) predicate adjectives; (/) adjectives with

mation of the plural.
(2) Demonstrative adjectives. — (a) This; (6) that; (c) yon, yonder; {d) formation of
adverbs from demonstratives.
(3) Interrogative adjectives.

chi (limit); taichi (infinite; without end).
Isao (sin); tai-Isao (sinless; innocent).
sinajguan (containing); taisinajguan (empty).
(c) Adjectival suffixes.
The suffixes on and yon. By adding on to certain verba ending in a consonant,
or yon, if the verb ends in a vowel, adjectives are formed expressing possibility.
Examples:
fatinas (to do); fatinason (feasible).
tanga (to desire); tangayon (desirable).
goflie (to love); gofliiyon (amiable).
ago (to change); aguyon (changeable).
pun6 (to quench; puniion (extinguishable).
4562—18 2
12
(d) Conjunctive particle.
The particle na. Attributive adjectives are connected with the nouns they modify-
by means of the particle na, which is not translatable into English.
Examples:
mauleg na taotao (good man).
laje na patgon (male child; boy).
patgon na chiba (young goat).
guefmauleg na palauan (good woman),
y tailaye na chalan (the bad road, or street).
The particle na is omitted where the adjective expresses an inherent attribute,
as in y atulong aga (the black crow).
(e) Predicate adjectives.
The particle na is not used in connection with predicate adjectives. There being
no copulative verb in the Chamorro language, the predicate adjective may be con-
sidered to have a verbal nature. Mauleg (good) may be translated as to be good.
Nouns, when used as adjectives, may also be considered as verbs. The predicate
adjective usually precedes the subject.
Examples:
mauleg y laje (good is the man; the man is good).
guefmauleg y palauan (the woman is very good).
magajet y sinangan (the story is true).
chago y chalan (the road is long).
cadada y inepe (the reply is short).
cajaga y tijong (the hat is blood-stained).
(/) Adjectives with definite article.
An adjective with the definite article when used in a restrictive clause follows the
subject and is connected with it by ni; in a descriptive phrase the relative na (distinct
from the adjectival particle na), is used.
Examples:
y patgon ni y malango (the child who is sick; expressing: the sick child),
y chdlumo ni y dlqniqui (the brother of yours who is little; expressing: your
little brother).
Descriptive phrases:
guaja niyog gui guima na s6ndangculo (in the house is a very large cocoa-
nut).
julii untujong na cafachd (I saw a mud-covered hat).
{g) Comparison of adjectives.
Comparison is expressed by the possessive suffix na, followed by que.
Examples:
etogona que guajo (smaller in stature than I).
&pacana que jago (whiter than thou).
Equality is expressed by the prefix cha.
Examples:
chamisacan (as old as).
misacan (old).
Equality, but in a lower degree, is expressed by 1& and chat.
Examples:
laapac3, (somewhat white).
chat&pac& (poorly white; not white white).
13
(h) Reduplication of syllables.
Expresses intensification.
Examples:
daii^culo (big); dangcuculo (enormous; overgrown j.
gasgas (clean); gasgagas (scrupulously clean).
diquiqui (little); diqvuquiqui (tiny; very small).
(i) Formation of the plural.
Accomplished by the prefix man.
Examples:
mauleg na chelo (good brother); manmauleg na mafielo (good brothers).
tailaye na laje (bad man); manailaye na lalaje (bad men).
tunas na chalan (straight road, or street); manunas na chalan (straight
roads).
(2) DEMONSTRATIVE ADJECTIVES.
(a) This. Expressed by ayen before the predicate (yini or ini after the predicate)
of a sentence.
Examples:
ayen na patgon tumatanguis gui puengue (this child cried last night).
faisen yini (or ini) na tentago (ask this servant).
(b) That. Rendered by enao.
Examples:
enao sija na galago (those dogs).
enao na pale (that priest there).
(c) Yoii^ yonder. Rendered by ayo and yuje.
Examples:
ayo na guma (yonder house).
diquiqui yuje na patgon (yon small child).
yajo yuje na leblo (I like yonder book).
(d) Adverbs derived from demonstratives. Accomplished by prefixing and absorb-
ing gui (signifying in or at).
Examples:
gui yini (literally, in this); giiine (here).
gui yenao (literally, in that); giienao (there).
(3) INTERROGATIVE ADJECTIVES.
(a) Jayi, 3 aye, jai, or jae denote who?
Examples:
jayi sija na taotao? (what people? literally, who people?).
jai na rai? (what king? literally, who king?).
(6) Jafa, jaf. Although correctly translated what (or which), this word has a
much broader use, and in accordance with inflection is utilized to convey a number of
meanings, such as greeting, casual inquiry as to purpose, intention, reason, or destina-
tion, as well as the state of health, etc.
Examples (of correct use):
jaf na catoP (what cat?),
jafa na guma? (which house?).
The choice between the two forms, jafa or jaf, is merely one of euphony.
(c) Mano signifies either tvhere or which.
Examples:
mano na leblo? (which book? literally, where book?).
jaftaimano na leblo? (what kind of book? literally, what-like book?),
(d) Fia, fafia, fiiyai? These forms, signifying how many, are used according to
the nature of the nouns they modify. (Very rarely used; replaced by cuanto;
cuantos; jaf taimano minegaena.)
u
Fia, used in reckoning time; fafia, used for questions pertaining to the number of
persons or li\ing things in general; fiiyai, used in connection with inanimate objects.
Examples:
fia puengue? replaced by cuantos dias? (how many days? literally, how
many nights?).
fafia na taotao? cuanto na taotas? (how many people?),
fiiyai na guma? jaftaimano minegaefia na guma? (how many houses?).
Another derived interrogative is tagfiaP, used in questions involving measure-
ments, as, for example, tagfian yini na sagman? (how manj' [fathoms long] is this
boat?); also fajafa? (how many times?).
(4) INDEFINITE ADJECTIVES.
(a) The limiting adjective guaja signifies there is or there are. Like all other words
in Chamorro, guaja may be used as several parts of speech.
Examples:
guaja na tuba (some toddy),
guaja na lalaje (some men),
guaja sija manog (some fowls).
guaja sija na guma (some houses).
(6) Indefinite adjectives from interrogatives formed by the suffix ja.
Examples:
jaeja na taotao (whatsoever person),
jayija na laje (whatsoever man).
jafja na guma (whatsoever house). •
manoja na ses§ (whatsoever knife),
(c) Negative adjective taya denotes the reverse of guaja, signifying there is not,
the equivalent of the French il n'y a pas.
Examples:
taya na palauan (no woman),
tat janum (no water).
{d) Adjectives of quantity or number; megae or lajyan signify much or many;
laguaja, several; dididi, a little; y pale, the remaining.
Examples:
megae na pution (many stars).
lajyan na taotao (many persons).
laguaja na famagfton (several children),
didide na tuba (a little toddy).
ti megae na taotao (not many people),
y palo na taotao (the remaining people),
(e) Adjectives of comparison. Adverbs of manner, such as taimano, jaftaimano
(how, like what, what like, where like) ; taigiiine (thus, Uke this, like here) ; tai-
giienao (thus, like that, like there), or taigiiije (thus, like that, like yonder), which
are derived from the demonstratives ini, enao, and'yuje, or more directly from the
corresponding adverbs of place, giiine, gUenao, and giiije, may be used as adjec-
tives before nouns and are connected with the latter by the particle na.
Examples:
taigiiine na finatinas (such an act as this; literally, such-like act),
taigiienao na leblo (such a book as that [near you]).
taigiiije na taotao (such a person as that [yonder]),
jaf taimano na leblo malag6mo? (what kind of a book do you wish?),
taigiiine na leblo (this kind of a book).
(/) Indefinite adjectives adopted from the Spanish. These have become part of
the Chamorro language, and are generally used.
15
Examples:
catquiera; catquieraja; catquiet (any, any whatsoever).
otro; otro na (the other).
cada; cada uno (everyone).
todo (every, all).
niiino (not one).
mas sea jafa (whatsoever).

(b) Ordinals:
y fin§nana (the first).
y min§, dos (the second).
(Or, y segundo, from the Spanish; y primero, y tetsero, etc., are ale
in use.)
y minS, tres (the third).
y minS, cuatro (the fourth).
y mina sinco (the fifth).
y mina sais (the sixth).
y mina sais (the sixth).
y mina siete (the seventh).
y minS, ocho (the eighth).
y mina nuebe (the ninth).
y mina dies (the'^tenth).
y min& onse (the eleventh).
(Ordinals from the Spanish are not used beyond the tenth, desimo. \
dttimo (the last).
16
Note. — Both cardinal and ordinal numbers are connected with the noun by the
particle na, as, bente na giiiian (twenty fishes). The noun following the numerals
remains in the singular; exception is made, however, in the case of nouns forming
irregular plural.
For example:
tres na taotao (three persons).
But:
tres na famagilon (three children).
(c) Distributives. Distributives are formed by prefixing the particles fan- and a-,
before the cardinal number. The numeral is thus put into verbal form. The prefix
f an-a- is changed in the indicative, past and present tense into man-a-.
Examples:
man-acuacuatro julo (they were coming up four-by-four).
nfan-adiedies magui (they will come here ten-by-ten).
THE PRONOUN.
In the Chamorro language the pronoun has only two forms, namely, the singular and
plural, and in this differs from the Tagalog and the Polynesian languages. With verbs
the dual is expressed, in certain conjugations, by the singular form of the verb accom-
panied by the plural form of the pronoun.
There are two forms for the first person, plural, best designated as being either inclu-
sive or exclusive.
Example:
jita (we) signifies you and I, therefore inclusive.
jame (we) signifies he or she or they and I, classed as exclusive, as it excludes
the person addressed.
THE PERSONAL PRONOUN.
There are two forms of the personal pronoun, styled the long and the short. The
first is used when the pronoun precedes the verb, and when the pronoun is used with-
out a verb, as in abbreviated sentences and after prepositions.
Examples:
guajo fumatinas enao (I did that).
guiya jita (with us; at our house; the French, chez nous).
The short form of the personal pronoun is used where the same is preceded by the
verb.
Example:
chulie yo un manja (bring me a coconut).
SHORT FORM
LONG FORM.
(AFTER VERB

guajo
yo

jago

guiya
gui
(he; she).
jita
jit
(we, inclusive).
jame
jam
(we, exclusive).
jamyo
jamyo
(you).
sija
sija
(they).
THE POSSESSIVE PRONOUN.
The possessive pronoun is expressed differently in the case of (a) persons, (6) ani-
mals, and (c) things inanimate.
(a) Indicated by a suffix, as follows:
jo or CO (my).
mo (thy).
na (his; her; its).
17
ta (our, inclusive).
mame (our, exclusive),
miyo (your).
nija (their).
(b) In the case of animals:
g&jo (my).
gamo (thy).
gana (his; her; its).
gata (our, inclusive).
gamame (our, exclusive).
gamiyo (your).
ganija (their).
It will be seen, therefore, that the reference to animals is indicated by the infix gS,.
Examples:
y gajo na galago (my dog).
y gamo na manog (thy fowl).
y gana na babul (his pig).
y gata na carabao (our buffalo, inclusive).
y gamame na carabao (our buffalo, exclusive).
y gamiyo na chiba (your goat).
y ganija na nganga (their duck).
(c) In the case of inanimate objects:
iyoco -(my).
iyomo (thy).
iyona (his; her; its).
iyota (our, inclusive).
iyonmame (our, exclusive).
iyonmiyo (your).
iyoniiija (their).
THE VERB.
Almost any word in the Chamorro language may be used as a verb, but there are
certain words expressing motion, condition, or action, which may be considered true
verbs in their primitive form.
Examples:
janao (to go; to walk).
maila (to come).
saga (to stay).
falago (to run).
agang (to call out).
fapos (to pass).
tunog (to descend).
basnag (to fall).
jag6 (to reach),
taga (to cut).
tugue (to write).
taitai (to recite; to read).
ason (to lie down).
nango (to swim).
fato (to arrive).
tanguis (to weep).
guinem, or guimen (to drink).
chule (to carry).
yut§ (to throw away).
pacha (to touch).
In the Chamorro language all verbs are classed as either transitive or intransitive.
Verbs having a certain direct object are classed as transitive.
Example:
taitai enau (or 6nao) na leblo (read that book).
As intransitive are classed (a) verbs denoting motion or position, having no direct
object; (6) transitive verbs, when they have no object at all, or when their use indicates
an uncertain, indefinite object. Thus, to read, and to read books, are both classed as
intransitive, the first, when standing alone, having no object at all, and the second
denoting an object insufficiently definite. The conjugation of the verbs applying to
(&) is that of the transitive form, with the addition of the prefix fan, the latter being
18
modified in the past tense and in the infinitive into man. (The addition of the pre
fixes fan or man has the effect of changing the letters following, as in the case of the
particle denoting the plural, for instance, chule becomes fanule, etc.).
In the case of some transitive verbs the insertion of the infix um accomplishes the
accentuation of the fact that the action described has received previous mention or is
already known. For example, when speaking of a book that has already been men-
tioned, the form jaye tiunaitai este na leblo ? (who has read this book?) would be
used, while jutaitai este na leblo (I have read this book) would indicate reference
to a book not known to the person or persons addressed.
Avoiding undue elaboration, the following examples of conjugations have been
selected: (a) The transitive verb with a direct object; (6) The transitive verb without
a direct object (with the prefix fan-); (c) The transitive verb with the infix lun;
(d) The intransitive verb.
(a) the transitive verb with a direct object.
Infinitive:
gagau (to beg).
Imperative:
Second person singular, ga-gau.
Third person, u-gagau.
First person plural, ta-gagau.
Second person, ga-gau.
Third person, uja-gagau.
Present and past tenses:
First, singular (I beg; I begged), ju-gfi,gau.
Second, singular, on-gagau.
Third, singular, ja-gagau.
First, plural, inclusive, ta-gagau; exclusive, in-gagau.
Second, plural, en-gagau.
Third, plural, ja-gagau.
Note. — For purpose of emphasis the personal pronoun is sometimes added to the
verb.
Example:
guajo ju-gagau (I beg, I begged).
Future:
First, singular (I shall beg), ju-gagau.
Second, singular, on-gagau.
Third, singular, u-g&gau.
First, plural, inclusive, uta-gagau; exclusive, in-g&gau.
Second, plural, en-gagau.
Third, plural, uja-gagau.
Note.— The orthography in many instances is quite uncertain, therefore attention
is invited again to the frequent substitution of i for e and o for u, and vice versa.
The uncertain pronunciation of these vowels itself forms probably the fundamental
reason for the fact cited, so that it may not be incorrect to designate the substitution
of these letters as being permissible through accepted usage. Thus, in the above
examples, en may be written for in, un for on, in for en, on for un. The other
prefixes remain invariable, and should be remembered, as follows:
Present and past tense:
Third person singular, ja.
First person plural, ta.
Third person plural, ja.
19
Future:
Third person singular, u.
First person plural, uta.
Third person plural, uja.
The pluperfect may be formed as indicated in the following example: monj&n
ju-gagau; or monjayan ju-gagau; or yesta ju-gagau; or raagpo ju-gagau
(to convey: I had begged, or asked; although the literal translation would be / was
finished with asking).
(b) transitive verb without a direct object.
Infinitive:
To beg; to ask, man-gagau.
Imperative:
Second person singular, fan-gagau.
Third person, u-fan-gagau.
First person plural, ta-faiunan-gagau.
Second person, fanman-gagau.
Third person, uja-fanman-gagau.
Present and past tense:
First, singular (I beg; I begged), man-gagau.
Second, singular, man-gagau-jau.
Third, singular, man-gagau-gui.
First, plural, inclusive, manman-gagau-jit; exclusive, manman-gagau-
jam.
Second, plural, manman-gagau-jamyo.
Third, plural, manman-gagau-sija.
Future:
First, singular (I shall beg), ju-fan-gagau.
Second, singular, on-fan-gagau.
Third, singular, u-fan-gagau.
First, plural, inclusive, uta-fanman-g&gau; exclusive, in-fanman-gagau.
Second, plural, en-fanman-gagau.
Third, plural, uja-fanman-gagau.

First, singular (I begged), guajo gumagau.
Second, singular, jago gunxagau.
Third, singular, giiiya gumagau.
First, plural, inclusive, jita gumagau; exclusive, jame gumS,gau.
Second, plural, jamyo gumagau.

Imperative:
Second person singular, tunog (step down!).
Third person singular, u-tunog.
First person plural, ta-fanunog.
Second person plural, fanunog.
Third person plural, uja-fanunog.
20
Present and past tense:

Second, singular, tumunog jau.
Third, singular, tumunog gui.
First, plural, inclusive, manunog jit; exclusive, manunog jam.

Third, singular, u-tunog.
First, plural, inclusive, uta-fanunog; exclusive, in-fanunog.
Second, plural, en-fanunog.
Third, plural, uja-fanunog.
Note. — The formation of the infinitive by the infix una is not followed in the caae
of a number of exceptions. For example:
Present tense:
basnag yo (I am falling).
Infinitive:
manbasnag (to fall).
THE PASSIVE FORM.
There are two constructions to express the passive form of a verb, in which the
object of the active verb becomes the subject: (a) By inserting the infix in before the
first vowel, and changing o into e and u into i; or (6) by the prefix ma-.
Examples:
gode (to bind).
guinede or ma-gode (to be bound).
THE USE OF THE PASSIVE FORM.
(1) If the subject is in the first or second person, the active construction prevails.
Examples:
ju-patmada jau (I am beating thee),
on-nae-yo (you are giving me).
(2) If the subject is in the third person and the object in the second, the passive
form is used, with in inserted.
Examples:
binaba jau as tata (the father is beating thee).
manninae jamyo ni leblo (he gives you the book).
(3) If both subject and object are in the third person, either the active or the passive
form may be used.
Examples of the passive form:
Infinitive:
To be bound, guinede.
Past tense:
First, singular (I was being bound), guinede yo.
Second, singular, guinede jau.
Third, singular, guinede giii.
First, plural, inclusive, man-magode jit; exclusive, man-magode jam.
Second, plural, man-magode jamyo.
Third, plural, man-magode sija.
21
Future:
First, singular (I shall be bound), ju-magode.
Second, singular, on-magode.
Third, singular, u-magode.
First, plural, inclusive, utafan-magode; exclusive, in-fan-magode.
Second, plural, en-fan-magode.
Third, plural, uja-fan-magode.
THE REFLEXIVE VERB.
The conjugation or inflection of reflexive verbs is the same as that of active verbs
with a definite object, except that it is followed by the personal pronoun.
Example:
jubale yo (I am waiting on myself).
In some instances maisa is also added, as follows:
ja-faaila raaisa gui (he accused himself).
THE CAUSATIVE PREFIX "NA-".
As shown under the paragraphs on adjectives, the addition of the causative prefix
na, denoting cause, permission, initiating action, effects the transformation of such
adjectives into transitive verbs, and of intransitive verbs into transitive verbs.
Examples:
gasgas, adj. (clean).
na-gasgas, v. tr. (to clean; to make clean).
ason, V. i. (to be lying down).
na-ason, v. tr. (to lay down; to put down).
In the example following, the addition of the particle fan in the plural, following
the prefix na, is to be noted.
Example:
jana-gasgas y guima (he is cleaning the house).
janafan-gasgas y guima sija (he is cleaning the houses).
In other respects the conjugation follows that of the transitive verb with a definite
object.
Examples:
If the object is in the singular —
Imperative:
Second person singular, na-gasgas.
Third person singular, u-na-gasgas.
First person plural, ta-na-gasgas. •
Second person plural, na-gasgas.
Third person plural, uja-na-gasgas.
Past tense :
First, singular, ju-na-gasgas.
Second, singular, on-na-gasgas.
Third, singular, ja-na-gasgas.
First, plural, inclusive, ta-na-gasgas; exclusive, in-na-gasgas
Second, plural, en-na-gasgas.
Third, plural, ja-na-gasgas.
Future:
First, singular, ju-na-gasgas.
Second, singular, on-na-gasgas.
Third, singular, u-na-gasgas.
First, plural, inclusive, uta-na-gasgas; exclusive, in-na-gasgas.
Second, plural, en-na-gasgas.
Third, plural, uja-na-gasgas.
22
If the object is in the plural —
Imperative:
Second person singular, nafan-gasgas.
Third person singular, u-nafan-gasgas.
First person plural, ta-nafan-gasgas.
Second person plural, nafan-gasgas.
Third person plural, uja-nafan-gasgas.
Past tense:

Second, singular, on-nafan-gasgas.
Third, singular, u-nafan-gasgas.
First, plural, inclusive, uta-nafan-gasgas; exclusive, in-nafan-gasgas.
Second, plural, en-nafan-gasgas.
Third, plural, uja-nafan-gasgas.
THE RECIPROCAL VERB.
Reciprocal verbs are formed by adding the prefix a-.
Example :
gode (to take hold of; also, to bind).
a-gode (to take hold of each other).
AUXILIARY VERBS.
(a) To have. This is translated by guaja or gai, and the negation is expressed by
tayS, or tai.
Examples:
guaja lebloco (I have a book; literally, there is a book mine; the French,
il y a; or German, es giebt).
guaja leblomo (you [thou] have a book).
guine guaja lebloco; also jagas guaja lebloco or monjan guaja lebloco
(I had a book; literally, in the past there was a book mine).
u-guaj9. lebloco (I shall have a book).
Note. — Guaguaja ja salapSjo stands for I still have some money.
taya (the negation) —
taya lebloco (I have no book).
gai-salape y6 (I have money).
man-gai-salap§ jam (exclusive) (we have money),
u-gai-salape (he will have money).
uta-fan-gai-salape (we shall have money).
gai-iyo-jau tujong (you have a hat).
gai-ga yo galago (I have a dog).
tai (negation) —
tai-magago yo (I have no garment).
manae relos jit (we have no clock),
taiiyo jau s§se (you have no knife),
taiga yo chiba (I have no goat).
(6) To be. There is no copulative verb in the Chamorro language, and "to be"
is rendered by adjectives, nouns, and adverbs used in verbal form.
23
Example :
Infinitive:
To be sick, malango.
Imperative:
Second person singular (be sick!), malango.
Second person plural, fan-malan^o.
Past tense (and present tense):
First, singular (I am sick; I was sick), malango y6.
Second, singular, malango jau.
Third, singular, malango giii.
First, plural, inclusive, man-malango jit; exclusive, man-malango jam.
Second, plural, man-malango jamyo.
Third, plural, man-malango sija.
Future:
First, singular (I shall be sick), ju-malango.
Second, singular, on-malango.
Third, singular, u-malan^o.
First, plural, inclusive, uta-fan-malango; exclusive, in-fan-malango.
Second, plural, en-fan -malango.
Third, plural, uja-fan-malango.
Note. — In the past tense many attributive verbs take the infix um, as, for instance:
tumaUaye si Jose (Joseph became malicious).
Reduplication of a syllable in these verbs indicates equality in a lower degree.
Example:
malalango yo (I am somewhat sickly).
When used in the sense of the Spanish "estar" or the German "sich befinden,"
the verb "to be" is rendered by gaigue and the negation expressed by taigue.
Examples:
gaigue yo gui guima (I am at home).
man-gaigue jit gui ya jamyo (we are at your house).
u-gaigue gui ya jamyo (he will be at your house).
uja-fan-gaigue gui guima y ch§lujo (they will be at the house of my
brother).
The past tense is either expressed by an adverb of time, or by "estaba," taken
from the Spanish.
Examples:
estaba jau gui ya sija? (were you at his house?).
manestaba jit gui ya sija (we were at their house).
The use of the negation, taigiie, is illustrated in the following examples:
taigiie yo (I am not present).
manaigiie jit (we are not there).
uja-fanaigiie (they will not be present).
A few verbs commencing with fe- are conjugated in accordance with the following
paradigm :
Infinitive :
To run, falago.
Imperative:
Second, singular, falago.
Third, singular, u-falago.
First, plural, ta-fan-malago. ^
Second, plural, fan-malago.
Third, plural, uja-fan-malago.

Past and present tense:
First, singular (I am running; I ran), lualago yo, etc.
First, plural, man-malago jit, etc.
Future :
First, singular, ju-falago, etc.
First, plural, uta-fan-malago, etc.
Note the following:
chamo falalago (imperative, do not run!).
sina juialago? (can I run?).
munga yo malago (I do not want to run).
THE prohibitive: do not!
This is translated by chamo, the equivalent of the Latin "noli" or German "woUe
nicht! "; in the plural, chamiyo ! Its use is somewhat subject to arbitrary changes,
and only a few illustrations are given below:
Examples:
ch§,rao fatnoraocat! (do not go!).
chamo falalago ! (do not run !).
chamiyo fanjajanau! (do not go ! [plural]).
chamiyo f anmatatachong ! (do not sit down !).
jatago yo na chajo jumajanau (he commanded me not to go).
janajanau y guaot para chajo tumiitunog (he took away the ladder in order
that I may not descend).
The negative of "to want to" is expressed by munga, which denotes negation in
a milder degree than the positive chamo.
Examples:
Imperative, in all forms:
m.unga.
Past and present tense:
munga yd (I do not want to).
munga jit, or munga jam (we do not want to).
Future:
jumuiiga (I shall not want to).
utafanmunga, etc. (we shall not want to).
Some verbs always use the possessive pronoun as a suffix.
Examples :
yajo (I wish; it pleases me to).
ganaco, or gaoco (I prefer).
Examples of defective expressions:
jecua (I do not know).
na-jo, or, as plural, na-ta (give me, or give us, something to eat).
ujo! (take [it]!).
lamen (to be good for something; to be useful).
jaf ulamen este na atbot? (what is this tree good for?).
jaf onlamen giiine? (what are you here for?).
THE ADVERB.
The common adverbs of place and motion are in reality abbreviations of phrases
composed of the demonstrative pronouns preceded by the preposition gui, indicating
at or to.
Direction away from the speaker is denoted by guato; direction toward the speaker,
magui; place or time of an occurrence is rendered by nai.
25
Examples:
guine; este nai (here).
este magui; este magui nai; giiine magui (here! — example: come
here !).
giienau; enau nai; giienau nai (there).
giienau guato; enau guato nai (there ! — example: go there !).
giiije; ayo nai (there — at a distance from the speaker).

tance).

THE PREPOSITION.
Only the following prepositions are used:
(a) gui (upon; in; at; with). If the preposition g^ui is followed by the articlu,
the latter is absorbed.
Examples:
gui y tasi becomes gui tasi (upon the sea).
gui iya jita becomes guiya jita (at our house).
gui si Juan becomes as Juan (at John's house).
(b) guine (out of; of; from).
Example:
guine mano (where from).
(c) nu. This is difficult to translate, as it has a number of different meanings and
uses. A few illustrations follow:
ilegna nu sija (he said to them).
si pale jatagpangue y patgon nu y janum (the priest baptized the child
with water).
nae jam page nu y agonmame (give us our daily bread).
sija manecunggog man atento nu y finofia (they listened carefully to his
words).
27
(d) yan (with; in company of). Instead of this preposition, circumlocution is,
sometimes used, as in the following example:
dalalag giii (go with him — follow him).
(e) tai-taya (without).
Example:
taya tujojig na; tai tujong; tai tijong- (without a hat).
(/) Adverbs denoting place or location are used as prepositions, with san or gui.
Example:
gui menan y guima; san m§nan y guima (in front of the house).
Prepositions formed with san or gui can be combined with the possessive pronoun.
Examples:
gui menamo (before thee).
gui lagona (to his right).
gui jalummiyo (in you).
PREPOSITIONS ADAPTED FROM THE SPANISH.
These have been absorbed into the Chamorro language, and are now in general use.

con (with).
jasta (until).
sin (Avithout).
contra (against).
fuera de (outside of; except).
antra; ental6; gui entalo (between).

DICTIONARY
OF THE
CHAMORRO LANGUAGE
(31)
PART l.-ENGLISH-CHAMORRO
Note. — ^The author realizes that the greatest usefulness of his work will not be in
the direction of aiding Americans in the acquisition of a knowledge of the Chamorro
tongue, but rather in the actual help toward a more thorough appreciation of the
English language by the Chamorro children. He has not seen fit, therefore, to extend
the use of accents in this dictionary to anything resembling scholarly thoroughness
and precise consistency. Accents are used in the daily life of the Chamorros but
most sparingly, and the practice is that of leaving out, indiscriminately, all but those
accents which by their application practically decide the meaning and interpretation,
of the word concerned. As in other eastern languages, an absolutely correct interpre-
tation and articulation can be acquired only by the help of native teachers, and the
extension of the annotation of accents in this work, to constitute a real factor, would
offer a return very much out of proportion to the extraneous effort necessary for such
an accomplishment.
Hovv'ever, the author anticipates, and hopes, that there will be ambitious Americans
and others, even though their number be small, who would wish to be given at least
a partial guide toward a correct enunciation (in so far as it can be ascertained from
present usage) of the Chamorro idiom, and in the interest of these he has applied
special care in the application of accents in theEnglish-Chamorro part of the dictionary
under the captions of the letters of the alphabet "a," "b," and "c." It \vill be noted
by observant students that the shadings of the letters are indicated painstakingly,
especially in the case of the vowel "a," the least variation in the enunciation leaning
toward the so-called "Umlaut" (in German) "a" being indicated by the corresponding
accentuation. It is hoped that those for whose especial use this practice was adopted
will be encouraged by it toward further investigation, and that the purpose of this extra
annotation will be realized.

drying the fried slices in the sun or in
ovens; this lasts from one bread-
fruit season to another; the tree also
yields tapa, a native cloth, and a glue
and calking are obtained from the viscid
milky juice exuding copiously from in-
cisions made in the stem; the tapa, or
cloth, manufactured from the inner
bark, is no longer made in Guam; the
tree grows everywhere on the island,
in the woods, on rocky cliffs, and in
low, sandy soil; it is the chief source of
timber and gum; there are two varie-
ties, the dogdog {or dugdug) and the
leiuae; the fruit of the former is
seldom eaten, it being inferior to that
of the lemae; the seeds, however,
called nangca, are rich in oil and are
relished by the natives; horses and
cattle are very fond of the leaves and
the bark, and young trees have to be
protected from them; when pasture is
scarce breadfruit leaves are gathered
and fed to the stock; the fruit is so
abundant that it is fed to cattle, horses,
and pigs. (Safford.)
