(= Wait up!) Pogdinog dan, kagi, “Sagdok kow. Du-on og-alomud.” When they heard [that], they said, “Stand still. There is something moaning.” [This word seems to be the same as sigkon but in the last example maybe it has the sense of “stand still”??. (ck if these words can be exchanged in all three contexts.
