alud. liyu.

alud (a-lood) - perahu.

i dont know how to describe perahu in english. i cant think of its english word right now. eh macam the ones in kampung ayer, water taxis ah. but the word alud is rather appropriate for the older version of those hi-speed water taxis. where a 2m wooden paddle is used to get the alud moving. "kayuh! kayuh! kayuh! buaya blakang kamu!!" huhuhu..

yapa-ni ado alud na..
bapa-nya ada perahu tu..

liyu (lee-yooh) - sungai. river.

nada sungai,nada lah perahu. so yeah we call river, liyu. but you can't use Liyu Tutong for Sungai Tutong. for me, it just doesn't sound right. ah well, lets just ask my nenek. huhuhu..

alud-ni ge liyu tiru..
perahu-nya di sungai sudah..

2 words for now, Salam.
