Paiwan Every Day 539: amirika / aumeng / baljaka

Ferrell has at least three words in his dictionary as to how Paiwan refer to foreigners or white people. They are all loanwords:

• amirika: Occidental (Eng.) (Ferrell, p. 57)
• aumeng: Occidental (Min. "red-harid barbarian") (Ferrell, p. 60)
• baljaka: Europeans, Americans (? from Malacca, najor Dutch trading center enroute Formosa in 17th century?) (Ferrell, p. 62).

I hear amirika or amilika the most, never aumeng, and only once when I was doing field work on loanwords and conversing with Puyuma elders, I heard the use of baljaka. 

maljian a quljaw na kakakaka na amilika. 

Free translation: 

The color of the pupils of Americans is different. 

Word gloss:
