nagapam-, nagapan-, nagapang-,
nagapang-, A prefix denoting the
present tense active frequentative. Changes
that pan- undergoes are determined by the
following rules:
a.) nagapam- is used with verbs beginning
with "m”, "b” or "p”, e.g. nagapamalá
(malá); nagapamakál (bakál);
nagapamángkot (pángkot). N.B. Verbs
beginning with the letter "m” have the
same form for the Freq. and Caus., e.g.

has to decide the true meaning.

N.B. The corresponding forms for the past,
imperative and future (nagpan-, magpanand magapan-) are often shortened into
nam-, nan-, nang-, nang-; mam-, man-,
mang-, mang-, e.g. nangáyò
(nagpangáyò); nangabúdlay
(nagpangabúdlay); nanúmbung
(nagpanúmbung); mamányos
(magapamányos); mangutána
(magpangutána), etc. etc.
And no wonder; for the new technique of "subliminal projection," as it was called, was intimately associated with mass entertainment, and in the life of civilized human beings massed entertainment now plays a part comparable to that played in the Middle Ages be religion.
WORD SUGGESTIONS
A pious man who had reached the age of 105 suddenly stopped going to synagogue. Alarmed by the old fellow's absence after so many years of faithful attendance the Rabbi went to see him. He found him in excellent health, so the Rabbi asked, "How come after all these years we don't see you at services anymore?"The old man looked around and lowered his voice. "I'll tell you, Rabbi," he whispered. "When I got to be 90, I expected God to take me any day. But then I got to be 95, then 100, then 105. So I figured that God is very busy and must've forgotten about me, and I don't want to remind Him!"
