PREFACE 


Tlie  wliole  of  tlie  Siilfi  portion  of  this  work  is 
■original.  It  is  the  result  of  tlie  lal)our  of  my  late 
brother  Andson,  who  devoted  nnich  time  to  tlie 
study  of  several  native  dialects  during  the  thirteen 
years  he  I'esided  in  the  Island  of  Siilu  and  various 
parts  of  Malaya.  That  he  attained  an  unusual 
proficiency  in  the  Sulii  and  Malay  languages  is  well 
known,  and  his  voluminous  notes  in  my  possession 
.are  evidence  of  the  careful  investigation  which  he 
])est()wed  upon  the  Sulu  l)ef()re  placing  it  against 
its  English  and  Malay  equivalents.  All  the  in- 
accui'acies  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  Sulil  word  in  the  vocabulary.

PliEFACE. 

The  Author's  ohject  in  adding  Malay,  to  what  he 
orioinally  designed  as  a  Siihi  work  only,  was  to  ac- 
celerate the  further  fusion  of  two  dialects  which  have 
so  mucli  affinity  and  which  will  make  the  language- 
of  North  ])orneo  tlie  English  of  the  farther  J'^ast. 

I  have  to  aclvnowledge  my  indehtedness  to 
Marsden's  Dictionaiy  of  the  Malay  Language,  and 
to  Maxwell's  Manual  of  the  Malay  Language  foi-^ 
material  and  information  which  have  aided  me  in 
constructing  tlie  Malay  part  of  the  Introduction. 
From  a  small  Sulii  vocahulary,*  by  my  esteemed 
friend  Mr.  Thomas  Henry  Haynes,  I  have  adopted 
a  few  nautical  terms.

INTRODUCTION 


The  Sulii  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  Sillu  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  Siilii.  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  modern  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  haris  or  signs  to  assist  them 


X  INTEODUCTION. 

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

The  Siilii  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.  Kow  all 
is  changed  !  Spanish  rule  is  hateful  to  them  and 
many  are  leaving  the  Suhi  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  Siilu  to  enable  them  to  converse  with  the 
Sulus  in  their  own  dialect  rathei'  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 
Siilu  word  in  juxtaposition  is  obvious. 

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

XII  INTEODUCTION. 

church;  e.  g-.,  cJnlcJulk  a  key;  chal-ap,  ready. 
The  hard  sound  of  ch  as  in  character  is  repre- 
sented by  k,  &H—Ji-aJachucho,  cartridge. 

/  There  is  no  sound  equivalent  to  f  in  Siiki,  and 
in  all  words  borrowed  from  Malay  the  f  has  been 
changed  into  p ;  e.  g.,  "  fikir  "  into  j^tkil,  to  think  ; 
"  fakir"  into  _p«M,  a  medicant;  "  faidah  "  into-

k  like  the  k  in  Malay  is  almost  mute  when  it  is 
the  final  letter  of  a  word  but  otherwise  it  is 
always  strongly  aspirated. 

k  should  be  pronounced  like  k  in  kick,  stick;  it  is 
never  mute,  as  it  is  in  Malay,  when  the  final 
letter  of  a  word  ;  e.  g.,  pclak,  silver,  dollars  or 
money;  «/«/.-,  arrack  ;  sncdalx,  to  ^howt;  mam- 
alidx,  to  pay  respect ;  hah,  to  find. 

ng  whether  at  the  beginning  or  end  of  a  word 
has  the  same  sound  as  ng  in  sting;  e.  g.,  viangi, 
wicked;  ingan,  name;  pug-ingdn-an,  to  aiyle; 
hangun,  to  rise. 

s  to  be  pronounced  like  s  in  see  ;  e.  g.,  hCisl,  iron  ; 
bugas,  rice  ;  diighus,  appearance. 

V  is  used  only  once  in  the  Sulii,  namely,  in  the 
word  aslvl,  small. 

In  the  Malay,  v  is  not  used.

OF    GRAMMAR. 

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

I.  NOUNS. 
Nouns,   both   in    Malay   and    Siilii,   undergo    no 
•change  to  indicate  number,  gender,  or  case. 
Number. 
Number,  when  not  sufticiently  clear  in  the  context, 
is  denoted  "  By  the  use  of  separate  words  expressive 
of  plurality  and  singularity" — as,  ma-ta  ad,  iwMiy  ; 
manga,  some  ; — or  by  specific  numerals.     It  is  also 
sometimes  expressed  by  the  duplication  of  the  noun ; 
•e.  g.,  hatii,  stone;  hatu-hatu,  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  ktlda,  the  horse;  in  ma  JcRra, 
the  horses. 

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

Sulu.  Malay. 

Usog,  male  Laki-laki,  male 

Bahai,  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:- 
Mandangan,  male         Jantan,  male 

*  All  the  examples  not  in  italics  are  Malay. 


XIV 


INTKODUCTION 


Omagak,  female  Betina,  female 

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

To  ^)a  ka,  kapada,  sema 

For  Jicoi  akan 

With  'than  deno'an 

At  ha  di 

From  dlen-lm  deri-pada 

By  dien-pa  iilih 

Examples. 
Pa  hai,  to  a  house. 
Dien  ha  hai,  from  a  house. 
Ha  hai,  at  a  house. 
Ha  guah  hai,  out  of  a  house. 
Ha  tas  hai,  on  top  of  a  house. 
Ha  sum  hai,  beneath  a  house. 
Ka}i  Allah  tadla,  unto  God. 
Iban  tahang  sin\  nah'i,  with  the  help  of  the  prophet.. 
Where  the  noun  is  the  subject  of  an  action,  a  pre- 
position is  not  generally  required  ;  e.  g. — 
Soh-a  in  haiju,  light  the  fire. 
*  In  the  Malay,   "Tuan"    under   certain    conditions  can   be 
applied  to  women,     f  Sin  =  of  the. 


INTRODUCTION.  XV 

Tighak  kdhol,  cut  the  wood. 
Ma-vu'la  kdhoi,  fell  the  tree. 
Lesag  agOng,  beat  the  gong. 
The   possessive  or  gentive  case,  in   the   Sulii,  i& 
expressed  as  follows  : — 

1.  By  placing  the  possessive  adjunct  kan  before 
tlie  noun,  as — 

Kan  hai,  of  the  house. 

Kan  Srdtan,  the  Sultan's. 

Kan  kapal,  of  the  ship. 

Kan  palentah,  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 — 

Sdla  sin  saga,  brightness  of  the  sun. 
Ka-atds-an  sin  bad,  the  height  of  the  hills. 

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

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

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

Sultan  piinya,  the  Sultan's. 

Rumah  punya,  of  the  house. 

Parentah  punya,  belonging  to  the  government 

Kapal  punya,  of  the  ship. 

*  In  the  Sulu  this  method  is  less  frequently  employed. 


XVI.  INTKODUCTION. 

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  "kilda  Sultan"  than  "Sultan 
piinya  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 

0-an,  pillow  0,  head 

Duru-an,  wet-nurse         Durah,  breast 

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

Ka-rendah-an,  lowness  Eendah,  low 

Ka-mati-an,  death  Mati,  dead 

Manis-an,  sweetmeats  Manis,  sweet 

Ka-slpug-an,  nakedness  S'lpiig,  ashamed 

Ka-taicr-an,  multitude  Ta^id,  many 


INTRODUCTION.  XVII 

Sah-aii,  penalty  Sdh,  wrong 

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

to  the  radicals,  as — 

Ka-lari-an,  flight  LTirl,  to  run 

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

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

affixing  cDi,  as — 

Pe-kirim-an,  a  messenger    Klrim,  to  send 
Pe-karja-an,  performance    Karja,  to  work 
Pa-tog -an,  sleeping-place     Tdg,  to  sleep 
Pa-maiguli-an,  a  bath  Malgok,  to  bathe 

(iii.)  From  verbs  by  prefixing  ^>/V^  (M.  "per"  oi' 

■"  pel  ")  and  affixing  an,  as — 

Pel-ajar-an,  a  school  Ajar  to  learn 

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

Piig-hlnang-au,  work  Hlnang,  to  work 

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

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

Pem-bayar,  payment  Bayer,  to  pay 

Pen-akau,  a  thief  Takaii,  to  steal 

Peni-bunoh,  a  murderer        Bunoh,  to  kill 
Also — 

Peng-gah,  a  spade  Gah,  to  dig 

Peng-liat-an,  sight  Llat,  to  see 

Pang-Ua-han,  sight  Klta,  to  see 

<v.)  From  verbs  by  the  repetition  or  duphcation 


XVIII  INTEODUCTION. 

of  the  initial  syllable,  as — 

Sa-sdpu,  a  broom  Sdpti,  to  sweep 

Si-slpah,  wicker  ball  Slpak,  to  kick 
II.  ADJECTIVES. 
Adjectives,  both  in  Sulii  and  Malay,  have  no  case- 
forms,  no  gender-forms,  and  no  number-forms.  The 
changes  they  midergo  in  the  formation  of  abstract 
nomis  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. 
Tail  mangi,  a  bad  person. 
Mangi  ha-suddli-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  Grang  itu,  that  man  is  good. 
Aslvl  in  bdi  sin  patek,  my  house  is  small. 
Maraiau  tdu  ien,  that  man  is  good. 
Ma-pdtih  in  kura  sin  Idja,  the  horse  of  the  King 
is  white. 
Adjectives  may  be  formed  from  substantives  by 
prefixing  the  particles  ni'ig  (Siilu)  and  "  ber  "  (Malay) 
as — 

•  There  are  many  such  exceptions  in  the  Sulu. 


INTRODUCTION.  XIX 

Nrtg-bul-btd,  feathered  Bul-hul,  feathers 

Ber-budI,  wise  BudI,  wisdom 

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

Examples. 
Lebih  ptinas  deri  dahulu,  hotter  than  formerly. 
Lebih  mjinis  deri-pada  gula,  sweeter  than  sugar. 
Baik  ini  deri  itu,  this  is  better  than  that. 
lui-lah  suchi  deri-pada  lain,  this  is  cleaner  than  the 

other. 
Lebih  paso  dien  tagnali,  hotter  than  formerly. 
Maimoh  dien-ha  siikal,  sweeter  than  sugar. 
Maralau  dl  dien  dun,  better  here  than  there. 
Lebih  mahonet  Ini  dien-ha  ietii,  this  is  more  difficult 
than  that. 
The  superlative  degree,  in  the  Siilu,  is  formed  by 
placing  the  words  tiid  (most)  ov  jinkaraiau  (very,  ex- 
cessively)  after  the  positive.      In  the  Malay,  it  is 
formed  (1)  by  prefixing  the  intensive  particle  "ter;" 
(•J)  by  an  adverb  to  which  that  particle  can  be  pre- 
fixed ;   (8)  by  either  placing  the  word  "  s'kali "  (en- 
tirely) or  "  amat  "  (exceedingly)  after  the  adjective. 
Examples. 
Ter-bersar,  very  great. 
Ter-lebih  tuah,  extremely  old. 
Putih  s'kali,  perfectly  white. 

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

The  ma  prefixed  to  adjectives,  in  the  Sulii,  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 
qualifying  power.

The  term  which  represents  ten,  in  the  Sulii,  is  partly 
Bisaya  and  partly  Malay;  Jia)ig  one,  and  po//  is  a 
contraction  of  "piiloh"  (ten). 

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

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

In  the  Malay,  the  decimal  niinibeis,  from  ten  up 
to  ninety  inclusive,  are  formed  by  placing  tlie 
digits  before  the  term  which  represents  ten.  In  the 
Siilu,  they  are  formed  by  prefixing  ha  and  affixing

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

English.  Sulu.  Malay. 

(Singular)  I,  nie  aku,  hii,  'pateh      aku,  ku,  saya 

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

"Kami"  and  "  kiia,"  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  "  nrang  " 
(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  tan, 
which,  in  other  respects,  is  the  equivalent  of  the 
Malay  word  "  Hrang." 

Aliu  is  employed  both  by  superiors  and  inferiors 
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 
Malay,  is  frequently  used  in  place  of  the  pronouns  of 
the  First  Person. 

Pronouns  of  the  Second  Person  :— 

English.  Sulu.  Malay. 

(Singular)  You,  thou    ekau,  kau,  nio,    angkau,  kau 
(Plural)      Ye  kanmi  kamu 


INTRODUCTION.  XXV 

Tuaii  and  "  inchi  "  are  etfectively  eiiiplo_yed  as 
pronouns  of  the  Second  Person.  The  former  is 
most  commonly  applied  to  Europeans  and  those 
natives  who  have  made  a  pil,o;rimage  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,  )na         dia,  iya 
(Plural)       They  itihi,  fiiJa*     dia  drang 

POSSESSIVE     PRONOUNS. 

In    the    Sulu    personal    pronouns    are    made    to 
assume  the  possessive  form  by  prefixing  kait,  ha,  or 
hai.     In  the  Malay  the  word  "  punya  is  added." 
Singular. 
My,  mine         ka-akii,  han-patek         siiya  punya 
Thy,  thine       ka/t-nio,  kn-nio  angkau  pun3-a

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

Yours   ■  kai-miL  kamu  piinya 

Theirs  ka-nila,  kan-sila      dia  orang  piinya 

Personals  also  signify  possession  when  they 
follow  the  word  denoting  the  object  possessed. 
As — pedcDig  kii,  my  sword  ;  hma  ku,  my  hand  ; 
asawa  sin  tCian,  your  wife;  slmiul  nia,  his  or 
her  mouth;  bai  ku,  my  house;  kuni  viii,  your 
horse  ;  bai  kan-nia,  his  or  her  house. 

*Nila  and   sila   are   also    frequently   employed  in  a 
singular  sense. 


XXVI  TXTEODUCTION. 

DEMONSTRATIVE     OR     DEFINITE 
PRONOUNS. 

"This  class  may  include  not  only  demonstratives 
proper,  l)nt  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,  wlien  the  personal  precedes  tlie 
reflective  pronoun  this  is  clianged  l)y  prefixiug 
"sin  ;  "  as — 

Dia  sin-dJri,  lie  himself. 
Angkau  sin-diri,  you  yourself. 
Hamha  sin-dlrl,  I  myself. 
The  demonstrative  (adjective)  pronouns  generally 
follow  the  word  to  which  they  belong;  as — 
Tan  ieii,  that  man  or  those  men. 
Bai  1/1  i,  this  house. 
Oraug  itu,  that  man  or  those  men. 
Eumah  Ini,  this  house.

The  transitive   suffixes  may  be   employed  either 
independently  or  in   conjunction  with   a  prefix  to 
enforce  the  transitive  sense  of  the  verb. 
Examples. 
Ldrut-i  pildaiiff,  to  unsheath  a  sword. 
Eg-a  in  hucla,  let  loose  the  horse. 
Niig-kangi-han  hanua,  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  plantatioQ. 
Wlien    reciprocity  of    action   is   required    to   be

Tdbang-vian-dbang ,  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

Malay. 
Bel-ajar,  to  learn. 
Ber-diri,  to  stand  up.

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  hy  ^ny  alteration  in  the  form  of 
the  verb  itself. 

The  Present  implied  :  "  hamba  llat,"  ahu  Jc'ita, 
I  see  ;  "  niclta  harl  naik,"  mCita  siiga  domag,  the 
sun  rises. 

The  Present  expressed  with  precision  :  "  dia  ada 
makan  s'karang  ini,"  sia  ka-maun  sin~ini-ini,  he  or 
she  is  eating  now;  "pagi  ini  prau  ber-layar,"  ?ia 
Idyag  in  sakaian  mahainat  Ini,  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  Mala}' ;  and  hakas 
(past)  and  hdhus  (done),  in  the  Siilii. 

The  Future,  when  not  expresssed  by  some  word 
oi'  phrase  to  indicate  futurity  of  time,  is  expressed 
in  the  Malay  by  the  auxiliaries  "  mau,"  "  handak," 
"  biilih,"  and  "  nanti ; "  and  in  the  Siilii  by  ''man 
hatjuli,''  " 2^i'ifJ-pcf,"  and  "  (/(ina-gana.'' 

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

Malay.  Sulu. 

Ter-pilkul  nug-luhak  ...   struck. 

Ter-tulis  nug-ka-srdat  ...  written. 

Ter-pTlih  nikj-ka-pilipih         ...  chosen. 

Participle  Present. — Present  continuity  of  action 
is  often  expressed  by  the  words  "  lagi,"  "  sambil," 
Ifiah,  vuiien,  &c.,  as — 

Lagi  datang        rcltang  na  Jsah        ...  coming. 
Lagi  tidor  matog  na  Jsah         ...   sleeping. 

Number  and  Person. 

These  distinctions  do  not  apply  to  the  Siilu  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,. 


XXXII  IXTKODUCTION. 

the  past  and  the  future  tenses  or  times." 

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

Malay.  Sulu.  English. 

Bri  dihil  give. 

Makan  ka-maun  eat. 

Diiduk  Il/igknd  sit  down. 

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

Lepas-kan  anjing  cr/-i /«  ero/t  ...  let    loose    the 

dog. 
Piilang-kan         mn  I  sen  da  ...  return      the

Bangun  lah  hangun  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'urang  panau  na  kamu        ...  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  man  hay  ah  na  akn     ...  I  choose. 


INTRODUCTION.  XXXIII 

Hambii  jalan    pcuiau  iia  alin^  ...   I  walk. 

Sfiya  ininta       tnil-i  aka  ...   I  ask. 

Angkau  kata     lo)ig  mii  ...  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  tiian,  I  wait  your  orders. 
Pa-ra  dim  in  suUtt  Ini,  I  send  tliis  letter. 
Mtig-tiigar-i  akii  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  dahiilu,  he  walks  first. 

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

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

Orang  itu  sudah  mem-bfiyar  litang  nia,  that  man 
has  paid  his  debts. 

Sia  nuci-punau  ha  una,  he  walks  first. 

Sia  niig-tunur-a  in  lima  nia,  he  washes  hands. 

Iroh  miig-jjanhut  ilsa,  the  dog  pursues  the  deer. 

Tdu  iaiui  hakas  niig-bayad  in  ntang  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  kdrang  kamu,  how  many  do  you  want  ? 

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

TJno  long  mii,  what  sayest  thou  ? 

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

Pakaien  na  kamu,  whither  are  you  going? 

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


XXXIV  INTEODUCTION. 

But  they  also  say  : — 

Meng-apa  kamn  lari,  why  do  you  run  ? 

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

Malta  kau parjol,  why  do  you  run? 

Hadien  ka  u  n ug-hah  ha  ien ,  where  did  you  get  that  ? 

"  In  the  assertive  form  the  agent  or  nominative 
usually  precedes  the  verb,"  as — 

Tiikang  men-eggil  rumah,  workmen  build  a  house. 

Orang  mem-Ikul  baban,  men  carry  burthens. 

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

Kapal  ber-layer  ka  tlmor,  the  ship  sails  to  the  east- 
ward. 
Tukang  nug-hangun  hell,  workmen  build  a  house. 
Tclii  na  ra  hdhahaii,  men  carry  burthens. 
Ulan  na  liolog  paliim  dagat,  rain  falls  into  the  sea. 
Kapal  ndg-layag  pa  tiniol,  the  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. 

Dapat  kami  ber-untong.        Provided   we  are  suc- 
cessful. 

Sopaya  jangan  hamba  That  I  may  not  incur 
kena  rugl.  a  loss.

Agas  anal:  nija  men-  In  order  that  his  child-

"The  Passive  Voice  is  denoted  by  the  particle 
'  di  '  (in  the  Malay),  preceding  the  verb.  The  place 
of  the  substantives  which  express  the  agent  and 
subject  respectively  will  be  understood  from  the 
following  examples  :  " —

X.— PARTICLES. 

Althousb  exauj})les  of  the  application  of  most  of 
the  particles  have  been  oiven  already,  there  are 
several  which  I'equire  special  mention. 

Tall  or  ta  {  "  lab  ")  is  an  emphatic  particle  that 
may  either  follow  or  be  affixed  to  words  employed 
in  asking  a  question,  or  expressing  a  command,  as — 
mai-tali,  "  meng-apa  "  tab,  wherefore?  j)a-lia-ie>t 
fall,  "  ka-mana  tab,"  wbitbei?  Katoh  fall,  "'peigi 
lab,"  go;  pa  (fuali  fah,  "  ka-luar  lab,"'  go  out.  The 
elimination  of  fah,  or  "  lab,"  would  not  affect 
the  meaning  of  any  of  these  words,  but  it  would 
make  them  less  em])batic.  Tali  is  also  used 
euphoniously. 

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

Dah  seems  to  be  a  modification  of  hah. 

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


IXTKODUCTION.  XLVU 

K((h  ;iii(l  tiilt,  ill  botli  dialects,  are  interro^-ative 
particles  that  may  either  follow  or  be  affixed  to 
words  in  any  part  of  speech  that  may  become  the 
subject  of  a  question,  as — hlju-fdh,  "  raja-kah,"  is 
it  tlie  kin^?  pntili  lydt,  "  putih-kah,"'  is  it  white? 
ianii  tall,  "  Itu  kali,'"  is  it  that?  Kali  is  in  less 
general  use  than  tdli  in  the  Srihi,  whilst  the  reverse 
is  the  case  in  the  Malay. 

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

Di,  the  particle  of  negation,  generally  precedes 
the  nominative  in  a  sentence,  as — di  aim  inaka 
tri))L-ti'ii)i,  I  do  not  remember ;  di  (ilea  )na]ca  paiiaii, 
I  cannot  walk.     Di,  no  ;  di  tiid,  never. 

Tiid  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  ma  is  generally  omitted.  It 
is  never  prefixed  to  dakoIaJi,  great  ;  or,  asTvl,  small. 

Pier/,  a  form  of  the  prefix  ^j;/r/,  is  employed 
together  wuth  the  affix  an  in  the  formation  of 
substantives  from  verbs.    It  is  also  prefixed  to  verbs. 

A)t,  as  a  transitive  suffix,  seems  to  be  a  contraction 
of  hail.  A  little  care  is  necessary  in  distinguishing 
it  from  the  particle  an  which  is  employed  in  the 
formation  of  substantives  from  verbs,  i^'c. 


XIA'III  INTEODUCTIOK. 

Kia  seeujs  to  be  a  niodification  of  I'd . 
Sa  {^--  se)  is  an  adverbial  sioii.  The  saiue  effect 
is  produced  by  sa  followinf;'  an  adjective  as  by 
addint;  ly  to  an  adjective  in  Enf^lish  :  c.l;'.,  binuil  sa, 
"  se  benar,"  truly  from  hfnial  or  l)enar.  It  will  be 
observed  that  "  se  "  precedes  the  adjective  in  the 
in  the  Malay. 

ORTHOGRAPHY. 
Tliis  Introduction  would  not  be  complete  without 
some  notice  of  the  orthographical  vagaries  of  many 
Siilii  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  Siilus  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.,  />•  is  changed 
into  /,  as  Ji(l)i(/<j(/,  hhtf/of/  ;  /)  into  m,  as  vidf/oi, 
■pCirioi,  etc. ;  tinnpaiuj  into  ttiiiiumpanri  ;  r/dhaii,  gonia- 
haii  ;  'Dtfti,  niiiiui  ;  hfajit,  hiiir/it;  fahaia/,  fomdhaiif/  ; 
(Idfj-an,  du))i('(f/-a)i.  etc.  1),  when  it  comes  between 
tuo  vowels,  is  frequently  changed  into  r,  as  cdok, 
rroJi  ;  taud,  lia-taur-aii  ;  siul,  2^((-S"^'-<'"- 

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

When  an  inferior  addresses  the  Sultan,  a  Ddtuli,. 
Ldja,  or  Selip,  he  speaks  of  himself  a^s  pdtek.  There 
is  no  distinction  made  by  an  inferior  when  address- 
ing persons  of  lower  rank  than  these. 

In  addressing  the  Sultan  the  Suliis  introduce  the 
subject  of  discourse  by  the  preliminary  formula  : — 


258 

Eank  and  Forms  of  Address 
(Continued) . 
Ampun  harlhu  ampnn  ha  tapak  siki  sin  Junjongan 
sin  pdtek,  pardons,  thousands  of  pardons  (be  exten- 
ded) to  this  your  slave ;  or  m'tki  amptlii  in  patek. 
When  addressing  his  Highness  directly,  they  say 
Junjongan  or  mihiga  Junjongan,  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  Tiian 
hefore  his  title  but  say  only  Sultan  or  Jinijoitgaii,  as  : 
kura  sin  Jivnjojigan,  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  Siilus.  There  is  a  more  independent  tone 
about  the  people  in  this  respect.  AVith  the  excep- 
tions already  mentioned,  akn  and  its  abbreviation 
kit,  I;  Kami,  we;  ekauox  hau,  you;  and  kamu  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  Miki  ampnn  i)i  pcitek ;

hy  the  Siilus  taii//si.  Before  the  intj'oduction  of 
^'tang  chi,"  (brass  cash),  tlie  currency  was  iron 
cash,  10,000  of  which  were  equal  to  a  dollar.  The 
Chinese  name  for  this  kind  of  money  is  "  thi  chi," 
corrupted  by  the  Sulds  into  JiilsJiiiu/,  the  name  now 
applied  to  brass  cash.  A  distinction  is  sometimes 
made  by  the  addition  of  tfiiithaga,  as  kf<sJii)ig
