Bøeq

Bøeq 🔊 / beq 🔊 (欲^†; want/wish/intend to/about to)

How do I say this?

• In most places across the island, it's just beq 🔊.
  • In Logkarng and Samkiab, it's bəeq (bøeq 🔊).
  • Sometimes improperly rendered as meq 🔊
• Beq will tone sandhi into beh. (unlike how most short tones ending in "h" are rendered as Sioxngtut-ym (#2))
  • For example, baq in bahzaxng is rendered as bar 🔊.
