Description:

The term 'mencu' refers to making a sale. It has some overlap with 'pulek', to buy.

Verb:

As a verb, 'mencu' is a ditransitive happat verb meaning to sell that takes an ergative seller, an absolutive thing sold and a dative buyer. The regular disintentive skurun form is often used to talk about selling something with no focus on a specific buyer. Its antipassive disintentive pali form is an used idiom for 'to hustle'.

Noun:

As a noun, 'mencu' is a sale or transaction. It can also be a shop or store form the point of view of the seller, but this can be disambiguated with 'mencustep'. 'Mencuka' is unambiguously the thing sold, and 'mencuca' the buyer, and 'mencukija' the buyer.
