Usage notes

The prefix becomes pam- before ⟨b⟩ or ⟨p⟩. The consonants in question may be deleted.
The prefix becomes pan- before ⟨d⟩, ⟨l⟩, ⟨s⟩, ⟨t⟩. Where the root begins with ⟨d⟩, ⟨s⟩ or ⟨t⟩, the consonants in question may be deleted (e.g. panakot, root sakot).
Where the root begins with ⟨k⟩ or ⟨ng⟩, the consonants in question may be deleted (e.g. panguros, root krus).
Where the initial of the root is a vowel (starting with a glottal stop), the resulting affixed form is written without a hyphen (e.g. pangagad, root agad). For some, a hyphen is added after the prefix (e.g. pang-uran instead of panguran, root uran).
