ryu → mvi

Hand and arm are the same word in Okinawan (<>), but different words in Miyako. If <> is followed by an instrumental, we are assuming it is hand.

  • write with hand
    (ryu) <> → (mvi) てぃーひー かきー
    (ryu) <> → (mvi) てぃー<n><ins> かきー<v><npst>

mvi → ryu

はい can mean field, needle, or south, and is also a causative auxiliary verb. If it is followed by string, it is probably needle.

  • needle and string
    (mvi) はいとぅ いとぅ → (ryu) <>
    (mvi) はいとぅ <n><com> いとぅ<n> → (ryu) <>
