Translations

Kelabit - English:

lua - an animal used in ritual sacrifice
ngelua - the traditional practice for appeasement or atonement
[5/29/2017] L Bulan-Dorai: My little understanding of Ngelua in our context was more like "dedicating" the child. In so doing, they pronounce blessings & protection over the child while warding off any evil spirits around/assigned to the child.


Kelabit - Bahasa Malaysia:

Synonyms

neteng
