LUGAS

This is not a commonly used word in conversation, but it appears in literary works that are studied in Philippine schools.

lugás
to fall

lumugas
to cause to fall

Ang hanging lumugas sa mga bulaklak
The wind that caused the flowers to fall


malugas
to fall out, to fall off

Hahayaan mo na lang bang malugas ang mga dahon?
Will you just let the leaves to fall off?

Kung malugas ang buhok sa ulo ng isang lalaki…
If the hair on a man’s head falls out…


bahagi ng Dahong Lugás, mula sa Florante at Laura

 Sa loob at labas ng bayan cong saui
caliluha,i, siang nangyayaring hari
cagalinga,t, bait ay nalulugami
ininis sa hucay ng dusa,t, pighati.
