"lau'" meaning in Makasar

See lau' in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adverb

IPA: [ˈlauʔ]
Etymology: From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *lahud (“downstream, toward the sea”), from Proto-Austronesian *lahud (“downstream, toward the sea”). Since the prestige dialect of Makasar is spoken on the western coast of the South Sulawesi peninsula, the originally relative meaning "toward the sea" was lexicalized as "west(wards)". In the Turatea and Bantaeng dialects which are located on the southern coast, lau' means "south". Etymology templates: {{inh|mak|poz-pro|*lahud|t=downstream, toward the sea}} Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *lahud (“downstream, toward the sea”), {{inh|mak|map-pro|*lahud|t=downstream, toward the sea}} Proto-Austronesian *lahud (“downstream, toward the sea”) Head templates: {{mak-adverb}} lau' (Lontara spelling ᨒᨕᨘ)
