<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) In Jarai, the verb for carrying something on one's head is called đua /ɗua/ (at least for the Cheo Reo dialect). This verb is not used for objects such as a hat, scarf, or any thing that we use to protect our head. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We have so many words with the English meaning "to carry." For instance, to carry something on the shoulder is glăm; to carry on the back is "gui", etc. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2) As far as I know, we do not have "gender exclusive" verb for "to carry." </div>

<p class="MsoNormal">I’m working on verbs of carrying in Longgu (Oceanic) and I wondered if anyone had any data on ‘carry’ verbs in other Austronesian languages (and especially Western Austronesian languages).<u></u><u></u></p>

<p><u></u><span>1.<span style="font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;font-size:7pt;line-height:normal;font-family:'Times New Roman'"> </span></span><u></u>Is there a verb for ‘carry on the head’ (and if so, what is it)?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p><u></u><span>2.<span style="font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;font-size:7pt;line-height:normal;font-family:'Times New Roman'"> </span></span><u></u>Are there modes of carrying that are (semantically) gender-based?
