In these notes to the verses of the sung narrative, the following abbreviations arc used: K = Kcjaman; Sk = Sckapan; Kz = Kayan; Kny = Kenyah; M = Malay. Each note refers to the verse of the same number. In general, the bold forms arc from the narrative original or are variants in pronunciation heard as the recording was being transcribed, while the underlined forms are colloquialisms or used in discussing interpretation.
