Adverb [Tagalog]

IPA: /maˈŋa/ [Standard-Tagalog], [mɐˈŋa] [Standard-Tagalog] Forms: ᜋᜅ [Baybayin]
Rhymes: -a Etymology: From earlier manga, from Proto-Central Philippine *maŋa, from Proto-Philippine *maŋa, from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *maŋa. The three-letter spelling originated in a now defunct Spanish language abbreviation convention of drawing a tilde over words with nasal sounds. In this case manga, earlier rendered as mang̃a, was later contracted as mg̃a or m͠ga. The complications of typing ⟨ñ⟩, ⟨g̃⟩ or any such tilded combination using English language typewriters during the American occupation of the Philippines caused it to be dropped in writing. Compare ng. The abbreviated form was kept to avoid possible confusion with prefix manga-.
