404 THE POLYNESIAN WANDERINGS. 



Murua, Kiriwina: keda, id. Nada: keza, id. Sinaugoro, 

 Rubi: da, id. Wedau: tete, id. Nggela: halautu, id. Male- 

 kula: ne-sar, id. Aneityum: ne-falaig, id. Mota, Mosin: 

 matesala, id. Pak: me'esal, id. Merlav: metsal, id. Volow: 

 metehal, id. Motlav: na-mtehal, id. Sesake : matakisala, id. 

 matawirsal, id. Vuras: matekpwersal, id. Lo: luwomejal, id. 

 Mekeo: ke-anga, inengea, id. 



Malay: aZafe, course, direction; .raZefe, a road; jaZaw, id. Silong: 

 ja/on, id. Java, Ilocan: cZaZaw, id. Malagasy: aleha, id. 



Arabic: s'ala', to proceed, to call. 



The Proto-Samoan stem is hala. 



The Nukuoro sailenga is incomprehensible. 



In Melanesia we find two groups of composites. That which occurs in 

 the New Hebrides is in the simplest forms mata and sala, the evolutions 

 of the former being here negligible. Sala varies to sal, hal, and jal. The 

 last form is in Lo luwome-jal, of which the former member is obscure. The 

 Solomon Islands composite is kala-utu, of which the succeeding member 

 has so far escaped identification. In this group we have hala, thala, and 

 hata, and on the l-t mutation see note 312. Saa and Wango involve the 

 h-t mutation noted in 338, the same applying to Motu dala and Indonesian 

 dalan and jalan. If Aneityum na-falaig be admissible we have no direct 

 evidence in support of the h-f mutation, but h-v once occurs, sina'a (169) 

 Sesake vinaga. 



The Indonesian forms are satisfactory except for Malagasy with the 

 anomaly of an interpolated syllable. 



The Arabic has a form resemblance, but the sense is not at all satisfactory.
