As you ventured deeper into the marketplace of Keningau, the vibrant sights and sounds swirled around you. Suddenly, a warm voice cut through the cacophony.
"Akia!" A woman with bright, shiny eyes smiled at you. You weren't sure what she had said, but her friendly demeanour put you at ease. Returning a smile, you hesitantly responded, "Akia?"
The woman's smile widened. "Mansiu!" she said, her voice warm. "Akia! In Murut Nabai, that's hello. But with a question like you just used, it means 'why?', instead."
