Bis., Bkl., Tag. kdhoi; Bis.-M. kdhui; Ibk., Ilk., Sbl.-Bol. kayo; 

 Bon. C, Mda. kaiu; Sbl. kdiyo, wood, poon-kdiyo, tree; Ifg. 

 kai'yu; Mnb. fcddo or ftdjo. 



The distinction made in Sbl. between "tree" and "wood" is 

 one that, where there is any danger of ambiguity, must be 

 made in many Philippine and other IN languages, the word 

 kayu meaning both "tree" and "wood" in perhaps a majority 

 of the languages where it occurs.

This word for "water" is undoubtedly connected with the 

 very general Phil, inum, inom, "to drink". Danum is excep- 

 tional in its strikingly uniform geographical distribution, all 

 the languages north of Tag., as far as I know, without excep- 

 tion, having it, while all languages from Tag. southward have 

 words from the root ig. Ifg., however, has the word in a 

 different sense, "water" being liting. 



b: See sdpa under river. 



c: See libung under river. 



104. where; a, na-dn; b, sa-ro-ba-tdi; c, ag-du.

105. white; a, ma-lag-ti; b, ma-pu-ti; c, ka-buk-si. 



a, c: These two forms seem to belong to a very widely distributed and 

 extremely variable series of words (derived from a root f/as = 

 das^ras^las?) having such meanings as: white, bleached, 

 faded, refined, yellow, blond, pale, light, etc. More than forty 

 such terms, not counting numerous plant names, are known 

 to me, of which the most characteristic are cited: Pamp. das- 

 dds, Tag. dig'ds, Bkl. dagds, Bis. dug'ds, to blanch rice; Bkl. L. 

 bugdse' exceeding whiteness; Tir. rasi-7'asi, very white; Bis. 

 duak, light color; Bgb. daddas, to fade; Pamp., Tag. busilak, 

 whiteness; Tag. busdk, exceeding whiteness; Bis. busdg, white; 



" The Tag. name of a yam (Dioscorea alata L.), but probably applied in 

 various regions also to other species of the same genus.
