Body Parts in Bagobo Dialect



So, let's identify the Body Parts in Bagobo Dialect
:

1. Ulo - Head or Hair

2.  Mata  - Eyes 

3. Talinga - Ears  

4. Idong -  Nose 

5. Bibig  - Mouth


6. Ngi-pn - Teeth


7. Bat-tuk - The  Face literally but  it can also mean the "look" (hitsura in Tagalog).

8. Lima - Hands

9. Paa - Feet, legs

10. Kuko - fingernails, toenails

11. Gt-tk - Stomach  
(Note: to make it sound as close to the word as possible, I am not using vowels in some words. To put vowels between the consonants makes it  sound different. Ex: Git-tak, Gat-tuk, Gat-tak)

Most of these words are pronounced with the stress on the first syllable except "talinga" which is stressed on the second because it has 3 syllables.

That's it for today. Have fun with the body parts in Bagobo dialect.
