Some Moro related assistance please.

I thank you most sincerely for your comprehensive response, Migueldiaz.

However, I regret that the terms in which I have the most keen interest are omitted from the list that you have provided.

Specifically, is it possible to provide absolutely correct terms for the equivalents found in the Moro keris of these parts of the Javanese keris:-

sogokan

ganja

greneng

ron dha

kembang kacang

blumbangan

I thank you again for the effort you have invested in your response to my question.

Hi Alan. My reply was a little off tangent admittedly

But if I will have the chance to interview soon a couple of pandays in Sulu and Mindanao, I'll surely pass on the info to everyone. Thanks too.

Please do!

However it has been noted that the info back in the day had morphed or disappeared today.

Thank you Migueldiaz for your further advice. I do hope your contact with these people will be fruitful.

Thank you Battara for your comment. Language can change over time, and possibly that is what may have happened here, however, even though modern terms may vary from those terms of , say, 150 years ago, it is likely that elements of the original term would still be recognisable.
