Usage notes

[edit]

The plural formmata-mata is rarely used (except in some compounds), since this word itself often have a dual or plural meaning in its literal sense "eye". The singular meaning for that can be specified withsatu(one) orsebelah(adjacent, next, next to). While its senses other than "eye" can usebagian-bagian ("parts") for explicit plurality.
