Lofty Pangasinan Words
When I was growing up, I hardly heard these high-sounding terms being used by elders, except for three common words.
Now I am at a loss how to distinguish between and among these big, profound words, which otherwise would be lovely to see being used today!
Piraoat - yearning
Ilalo - trust
Gegemtan - aim?
Gagala - do on purpose?
Bunek - vision?
Pegdat, Pekdat - purpose, aim
Kalat - goal?
Getma - goal, aim, objective, target
Piaet - ambition, wish, desire, hope
Gunaet - dream, illusion, vision
Tindek - aspiration
Pilalek - ambition, wish, desire
Tamitam - desire, urge, hope
