Adverb of likeness; frequently meaning like, seems like: iti bulséc ⊗ iti matmatúrog, the blind is like the sleeper; ⊗ quen Juan, like Juan; ⊗ bató, like stone; ⊗ anác ni N., like N.’s son; casic di umáy ditóy, as if I had not come here; calmán pay láenğ ti ipapatáy ni Antonio, it seems only yesterday Antonio died; ⊗ diác imbagá, as if I had not said it.
Like before, without producing effect or result: adú ti palaoágna, ng̃em ⊗ ⊗ diác naánat, he made many explanations, but I remained as before, without understanding anything.
