Remarks:
* elo=umbrella  is different from helo= hell, Merina people don't distinguish the pronunciation of the two words but the Betsileo will say HElo for hell
*taty rora= to collect saliva. It is a compound word : it has two stress accents
* fanjaitra=" jai" is a diphtong so it considered as one vowel but a is pronounced slightly stronger than i= ja-i
*loko mena = colour red= even if the lipstick has another colour it is called so.
*from French: costume, gant (gàtanana), casquette, paletot,
*tatirora is not so much used= bavoara from the French bavoir is used instead
