N-
to be or to become burred; to be or to become serrated; to be or to become jagged; to have irregularities, as file marks on a knife blade.
Because of the way Samals sharpen knives, burr marks are made. As the knife is used, its edge becomes smooth and the irregularities are no longer felt. Therefore, burrs are a mark of sharpness.
Kabisa talom-na ngaleget laasa.
Its sharpness is so great [it] became burred even.
Mbal hap ssa-na nikoot basa ngaleget.
Its feel is not good to touch because [it is] jagged.
It doesn't have a good feel because it is jagged.
Ngaleget empon-na, mbal lanuh.
His teeth are serrated, [they are] not smooth. [This refers to the serrated edges of the tops of the incisors.]
