mānas
To drop (on its own accord, of fruit).
Said of fruit like mango, mampallam, bewunu, or durian, not of lansones. The owner of a tree sometimes builds a little hut and sleeps there for some nights in order to pick up the fruit, especially if it is valuable fruit like durian.
Mānas ne buwa' duwi'an kamihin.
Our durian fruit is dropping off already.
Basta tempo mānas buwa' kayuhin gey ne a'ahin usa' amban diyawa'ne, megsilung.
At the time when the fruit drops off the people don’t move from under the tree; they wait for fruit to drop.
