Particles occurring in isolation
The question particle pa
The word pa means "or", but is generally not used alone unless it is at the end of a sentence, in which case its meaning would be better translated into English as "..., right?", "..., yes?", or by simply adding a question mark.
Particles occurring in pairs
wi ... wa
The particle pair wi ... wa expresses the meaning of "if ... then" in English.
pa ... pa
The particle pair pa ... pa expresses the meaning of "either ... or" in English.
