Present: mgan CD.
Meaning: To curse, to execrate (Ja) CD.
Note:(Stein 1942: 317-218) connects this with the adjective ngan 'evil'. He notices the alternate spelling ma ngan 'accursed' of a nominal use in Gesar, and suggests mngan is a contraction of mo ngan 'evil woman.' Other dictionaries DS, TC list the word only as an archaic noun 'sin, fault.'
