Notes: (In context may mean rightful husband , rightful owner of woman ). These cpds. take same HumSg ending as abal, hence angaa- bali-jung 79.2.7. Other terms of congratulations or praise: `amabu, ]amirr, w2alaj, radharr, lhamugarr, mirrabal, ma[bal. Note that the last two of these also end in -bal, suggesting etymological segmentation of abal as *a-bal (*aG-wal, cf. Ngandi -wel) (leading to a further connection with another of the terms, w2alaj). ma[bal is related to a verb =ma[-bu-. For semantics cf. also bunggawa, amba`aman, mama`ang.
