TALASALITAANG PANG-YUNIT Particles are often single words whose meaning adds a particular nuance to a sentence. Daw indicates indirect discourse. E.g. I hear(d), I’m told, It is/was said, They say/said. Nga indicates emphasis, indeed. Pala indicates surprise, realization Na means already, in a positive sentence. Pa means still, in a positive sentence. Din means too, also, likewise. The same alternation between d ~ r as in “daw” and “raw.” Naman here, it indicates contrast. E.g. whereas, as for (the other), on the other hand, Lang indicates limit - only, just. “Lang” is a contraction of “lamang.” Muna means “first.” It indicates the first item to occur in a sequence.
