Where you put the stress on a word in Chamorro will help you to be understood by native speakers. It’s important in many languages as it can change the meaning of the word. Take for instance the word desert. At first glance, your thoughts immediately go to a dry, barren expanse of land with lots of sand. That’s because you read the word as DEH-zehrt, with the stress on the first syllable. Now try reading it again with the stress on the second syllable and now your thoughts turn towards abandoning someone or something. With the stress on the first syllable, the word desert is the noun, but put the stress on the second syllable and you get desert as a verb.
There aren’t a lot of words like this; that is words that change meaning depending on the stress. In fact, you need only to remember a few rules when it comes to understanding which syllable of a word to emphasize.
Which syllable has the stress?
For the most part, the stress is placed on the penultimate (a fancy term meaning “second to the last”) syllable of a word. For a two-syllable word that stress will be on the first syllable.
hågu – HUH-goo
tåya’ – TUH-dzah
go’te – GOH-tee
lepblo – LEHP-bloo
With three-syllable words:
kareta – kah-REH-tah
ga’lågu – gah-LUH-goo
kastigu – kahs-TEE-goo
This rule of placing the stress on the penultimate syllable is still followed when adding a possessive determiner (i.e. -hu, -ku, -mu, etc.). The possessive determiner is considered part of the word.
lepblo – LEHP-bloo → lepblo-ku – lep-BLOH-koo
kareta – kah-REH-tah → karetå-hu – kah-reh-TUH-hoo
Please note that the possessive determiners -måmi, -miyu and -ñiha have two syllables, so the stress will lie on the first syllable
karetan-måmi – kah-reh-tahn-MUH-mee
lugåt-miyu – loo-gaht-MEE-dzoo
gima’-ñiha – gee-mah-NYEE-hah
Chamorro Word Stress in Words Derived from Prefixes
There are words in Chamorro derived by using a prefix. When this happens, the stress is usually on the prefix.
Prefix a – reciprocal prefix (i.e. to do an action to “each other” )
atungo’ – AH-too-ngoo
asodda’ – AH-sohd-dah
Prefix e – Prefix meaning “to hunt for”
epånglao – EH-pahng-lah-oh
esalåpe’ – EH-sah-lah-pee
Prefix acha – Prefix denoting equality
achamaolek – a-CHA-mah-oh-lick (maolek = good)
achametgot – a-CHA-met-goot (metgot = strong)
Prefix hat – Prefix denoting movement towards or away from a subject
hatmagi – HAHT-mah-gee
hatguatu – HAHT-gwah-too
When attaching a possessive determiner in the case of the a-derived nouns, it reverts back to stress on the penultimate syllable.
atungo’-hu – ah-too-NGOH-hoo
asodda’-hu – ah-sohd-DAH-hoo
Chamorro Word Stress in Words Borrowed from Spanish
Of course, there had to be exceptions, but fortunately, there are not too many of these. Most of these words have come from Spanish and have retained their original pronunciations.
interes (n. interest) – een-teh-REHS
mamadot (n. baby’s bottle) – mah-mah-DOHT
kulot (n. color) – koo-LOHT
tason (n. bowl) – tah-SOHN
prinsipi (n. prince) – PRIN-see-pee
åtbot (n. type of tree) – UHT-boot

The weather is a subject that everyone talks about as it is a sore spot when it’s bad and the highlight of someone’s day when it’s not. This article will hopefully provide enough useful terms so you can talk about the weather in Chamorro.
Bonitu na ha’åni, no?
Beautiful day, isn’t it?
Atan ha’ este na uchan!
Just look at this rain!
Chamorro Weather Vocabulary
To help you learn how to talk about the weather, you’ll have to learn the different words used to describe the weather.
Chamorro Weather Nouns
- weather: i tiempo or i klema
- sun: atdao
- clouds: mapagåhes
- rain: uchan
- thunder: hulu
- lightning: låmlåm
- fog: afao
- wind: månglo’
- storm/typhoon: pakyo
- rainbow: isa
- degrees: grådu
- condition: kondision
- season: tiempo
NOTE: You may have noticed that there are two words for weather: tiempo and klema. They mean the same thing. This can get confusing since you may have already learned and used tiempo in the contexts of talking about time in general, or to refer to a specific period of time, as in a season.
Chamorro Weather Adjectives
- sunny: somnak
- cloudy: nupblådu
- windy: månglo’, guaifon
- rainy: uchan
- bad weather: chata’an
- hot: maipe
- cold: manengheng
A lot of times in Chamorro, a noun can also be used as an adjective. It’s understood that something is “being” that noun. This can be seen in the words uchan yan månglo’, which are the words for “rain” and “wind”, respectively, but can also be understood as “rainy” and “windy”.
Chamorro Words for Extreme Weather Conditions
- storming: papakyo
- earthquake: linao
- rough waters: nåpu
Asking about the Weather
If you need to ask about the weather, you can use the following.
How’s the weather?
Tumaimamanu i tiempo?
What’s the weather like?
Håfa i klema?
Talking about Seasons
Because the Marianas is in the tropics, there are really only two seasons:
- tiempon somnak – dry season (lit. “sunny season”)
- tiempon uchan – rainy season (lit. “rainy season”)

The word “time” can be translated three different ways in Chamorro:
ora | Time as in telling time. “I ora” means “the hour”. |
tiempo | General period of time, which can be used when talking about seasons. |
biahe | An instance of time, as in a number of times. |
In this article, we’ll be talking about i ora, or “the hour”. It’s easy to tell time in Chamorro. You just have to remember your numbers.
How to Tell Time in Chamorro
What time is it? Ki ora?
CHAMORRO | ENGLISH |
Ala una | 1 o’clock |
Alas dos | 2 o’clock |
Alas tres | 3 o’clock |
Alas kuåtro | 4 o’clock |
Alas singko | 5 o’clock |
Alas sais | 6 o’clock |
Alas siette | 7 o’clock |
Alas ochu | 8 o’clock |
Alas nuebi | 9 o’clock |
Alas dies | 10 o’clock |
Alas onse | 11 o’clock |
Alas dosse | 12 o’clock |
Note that 1 o’clock is different from the rest as it is just “ala” and not “alas” and the word for one is the Spanish feminine form “una”.
Beyond the Hour
If we wish to say that it is half past the hour we would use the expression i media , which is a direct borrowing of the Spanish phrase meaning “and a half”.
Pot ihemplo: 7:30 ~ Alas siette i media.
You can also specify the exact minute, if you wish to be specific. For example, to say it is 10:20 in the morning, you would say:
Alas dies bente
Or you could also say:
Bente pasåo alas dies, which literally means “20 past 10”.
NOTE: When giving the time, Chamorros like to give a general idea of what the time is. They’ll just say it is para (to) or pasao (past) a specific time.
Para alas 5 | It’s 5 o’clock. |
10 para alas 5 | It’s 10 (minutes) ’til 5 o’clock. |
Pasao alas 5 | It’s past 5 o’clock. |
10 pasao alas 5 | It’s 10 past 5 o’clock. |
Adding Time of Day
If you want to be more specific as to the time of day, add the following expressions after the time:
…gi ega’an | in the morning |
…gi chatanmak | in the wee hours of the morning; before dawn |
…gi talo’ani | in the afternoon |
…gi pupuengi | in the evening |
…gi tatalo’ puengi | at midnight |
To say, seven in the morning, you would say:
Alas siette gi ega’an.
The words oga’an and chatanmak are both used for the morning. Chatanmak refers to the period right before daybreak. As soon as there’s light, it is considered oga’an. So depending on where you are in the world when you use oga’an may be different.
The word talo’åni literally means “middle of the day”, and refers to the time of day when the sun is at its highest. We note this only because you may hear “afternoon” used differently among speakers. In English, afternoon is any time that is after noon, that is 12 pm, through the evening. In Chamorro, you may hear someone say “Alas 11 gi ega’an”, following how time is spoken in English. Or you might also hear “Alas 11 gi talo’åni”, taking into account that at 11 a.m. the sun is already reaching its highest point.
How to Ask for the Time
We already learned how to give the time, so let’s take a look at the ways you can ask for the time.
The main phrase you need to know is:
Ki ora? What time is it?
If you want to ask when a specific event is happening, like a party or movie, you would simply ask what time something is (that is, what time it’s happening).
Ki ora i movie? What time is the movie?
Ki ora i gipot? What time is the party?
If you want to ask a more complex question, such as what time someone did something or going to do something you would need to ask ki ora na… (what time is it that…)
To ask what time someone did something,
Ki ora na makmåta hao? What time did you wake up?
To ask what time someone is going to do something we use ki ora na with a future statement.
Ki ora na para un fatto?
What time will you arrive?
Ki ora na para u falak i tenda si David?
What time is David going to the store?
To ask what time something usually happens, we must employ the ongoing, or progressive, form of the verb.
Ki ora na makmamata hao?
What time do you wake up?
Ki ora na mamaigo’ hao?
What time do you sleep?
Ki ora na madadandan i kampana.
What time does the bell ring?
Ki ora na mabababa i Target?
What time does Target open?
Ki ora na humåhånao hao para i che’cho’-mu?
What time do you leave for work?

Ha’åni or Dia
In Chamorro, we sometimes have two words for the same thing. This is true for the word for day, which can be spoken as ha’åni or dia. The former is rooted in indigenous Chamorro and the latter borrowed from Spanish. There is no strict rule as to when you should use either, but there is a predilection among native speakers toward using ha’åni more when describing the day and dia for when talking about the day in the calendar sense. As a learner of Chamorro, take note when listening to conversations in Chamorro; try to note the context in which each word is used.
The Origin of the Days of the Week
The Chamorro names for the days of the week come from the Spanish days of the week, which get their names from planets and gods.
CHAMORU | SPANISH | MEANING |
Lunes | Lunes | Day of the Moon |
Måttes | Martes | Day of Mars |
Metkoles | Miercoles | Day of Mercury |
Huebes | Jueves | Day of Jupiter |
Betnes | Viernes | Day of Venus |
Såbalu | Sabado | From Hebrew word shabbat, the day of rest |
Damenggo | Domingo | Day of God, or Day of the Lord |
Chamorro Months of the Year
When we want to talk about important events like birthdays and holidays we have to learn some very important words in CHamoru: the names of the months of the year. What’s great is that you have 12 opportunities out of the year to practice your Chamorro! Sonihi! Let’s go and do this.
Here are the names of i mes siha gi sakkan (the months in the year).

Talking About Dates in Chamorro
Saying i fecha, or “the date”, in Chamorro is almost the same as in English except for a few details. Chamorro days are often preceded by the word dia (or diha), meaning “day”. Traditionally, the day came before the month, but now it is common to say it the English way as well. In both languages, the year always comes after the month and day, regardless of the order.
You can use the following patterns to help you write the date:
dia + number + gi + month + year
or
month + dia + number + year
Here are some examples:
CHAMORU | ENGLISH |
Dia 3 gi Oktubre | October 3 |
Oktubre dia 3 | October 3 |
Dia 3 gi Oktubre 2014 | October 3, 2014 |
How To Say Your Birthday
When you want to tell someone when your kumpleaños or ha’ånen mafañagu-mu (both mean birthday) is, you can say it in a few ways:
Mafañågu yu’ gi Hulio dia 14. | I was born on July 14. |
I kumpleaños-hu i dia 14 gi Hulio. | My birthday is July 14. |
I ha’ånen mafañagu-hu i dia 14 gi Hulio. | My birthday is July 14. |

Product Details
- Door Buddy 🚪 The simple pet door latch that will keep your dog (if slightly larger than cat) out of the room with cat food or keep dog out of litter box room while still allowing your cat to have easy access without having to use bulky dog gates for the house or carving holes for pet doors for cats. Dog proof cat feeder or dog proof litter box for cats with this easy-to-use door latch for cats.
- SIMPLER ALTERNATIVE 😻 Door Buddy may be simple, but it works! Why struggle with a baby gate with cat door or dog gates for doorways? They are bulky and so cumbersome to use! Why cut a permanent hole in your door to install a kitty door for interior door? Don't make your kitty feel trapped with an enclosed litter box or litter box furniture. Try Door Buddy first and see for yourself why our customers love it so much and call it "so much better and less hassle than a pet gate with cat door!"
- INSTALLS IN SECONDS AND IS EASY TO USE ✔️ Just peel and stick to the door and door frame using the strong 3M tape. Its easy to latch and unlatch allowing you to use it from either side of the door giving you quick and convenient access to the room in your house where you keep the cat feeding station or cat litter box.
- ADJUSTABLE AND CUSTOMIZABLE 🙌 Use the adjuster on the cat door strap to make the width of the door opening wider or narrower to work with the exact sizes of your cat and dog. You can even alter the position where you stick the plastic pieces to make it further customizable. Or, install on the back of the door to make it stronger, especially for larger and more persistent dogs. Compatible with all types of doors from bi-fold doors to pocket doors and even double doors!
- HOW DOES IT WORK ❓ Door Buddy is a pet door strap that allows an interior door to open just wide enough so cats can easily enter or exit, but at the same time keep it narrow enough so dogs (if slightly larger than cat) cannot get in so you can keep dogs out of litter box or dog proof cat feeding station. Sometimes keeping the peace in a household with multiple pets can be frustrating. Door Buddy provides an easier and less cumbersome way to give cats a space of their own.

Best way to keep a door just barely open (cat width) but still swings normally?

I sleep in the master bedroom in my house, and both of my cats like to sleep in there as well. While I don't have trust issues with anyone I live with, I do want the door to stay mostly closed both to keep the heat in and so that nobody who just casually walks past my room at the wrong moment will catch a glimpse of me in my undies... or less. If the door is only open 4-5 inches there's nothing to see. |

If you put the door stop in the gap so the door couldn't close, instead of under the door holding it in place, you cat would be able to get in and out fine. They're good with doors that are slightly ajar. |

Look children's finger guards for doors. They look like Mickey Mouse. We use one for that exact purpose. |

A brick on the floor to keep the gap open; cat steps over it, and you (hopefully) swing the door open and step around. Or, if your toes hate bricks, then a weighted sack of sand/beans/etc. |

I just take a washcloth, fold it up, and slide it under the door. It grabs against the carpet and does the job. |

How about an old shoe - something that you can kick out of the way easily enough if you want to close the door. |

I plan on putting one in to the basement door once we finish the basement. It works great and most have swinging doors so you can keep the heat in and still have privacy. |

So, not sure I was clear, but the sole requirement isn't just to keep the door open, I'd also like it to revert to being "mostly closed" when I go through it without having to do it consciously. |

They make draft prevention things which go under the door and fill the gap up. You could easily fashion what you're looking for by cutting one of those down some, if need be, and fill one side with beans or rice instead of the foam that's typical. |

I put a piece of carpet underlay on the hinge side of the door, between the door and frame where it gets pinched holding the door slightly open, but allowing normal door closing if required. If you want the door to return by itself use a weight and pulley. |

Use one of those stretchy hooked thingies you get on bicycle panniers. One end round the door handle, one hooked in the lock. Door stays closed and cat can easily squeeze in or out. |

You will need to experiment with size and thickness to get the opening you require, but once it is done, it is practically invisible while retaining full door function. That should work perfectly. |

Tennis ball or racquet ball attached to the top corner of the door, will keep it from latching and the cat can easily open it enough to fit though. Add a pulley, string and counter weight and the door will close on it's own to the pre-determined spot also. |

That's exactly what I did as well (although not in the bedroom, the last thing I need is 4AM-cat-prowling knocking things over in my junk piles). In my case it's slightly backwards, in that I installed cheap doors to the basement and laundry room during the remodel and cut cat flaps in them; they're neat plastic ones that are hinged on top, but have a magnet on the bottom to prevent excessive swinging and flapping from air pressure changes. I've got some slightly nicer unframed doors sitting somewhere that are the exact size. When it's time to sell, I just pull the cheap doors off, trace the hinges onto the new ones, apply router and screwdriver. |

Buddy diy door
Finally, a Solution to Keeping Dogs Out of the Litter Box: The Door Buddy
Neither I nor my dogs and cats were compensated for this post. We were given a few free samples of The Door Buddy™ that I used to test and for photos. All opinions are mine, although the dogs and cats may have provided some commentary as I wrote. I only review products that I use or highly recommend to my readers.
My dogs like to dig for buried treasure.
And by buried treasure, I mean cat poop.
Lilah, Jasper and Tucker must think it awfully nice of the resident felines to consistently leave these tasty snacks in their litter boxes for the dogs to find.

Love is not all that’s left in the litterbox by my cats – and yes, one of them did draw this lovely heart for me.
Of course right after they feast on feces, the pups immediately want to kiss my face.
Talk about potty mouth! Yuck.

You look very sweet, Jasper, but I know where that tongue has been.
Experts say you should have one more litter box than you have cats. Since we have four cats, there are five litter boxes in our home, all of which are in rooms with closable doors. The cats can chose to do their business in bathrooms or our finished basement. There’s also a box in my son Aaron’s room, where Dawn spends most of her time.
The challenge? How to keep the dogs out of these rooms, and allow the cats free access.
At first we used a combination of door stops and braces. I put a brick or other heavy object on the inside of a door , so it would only open so far before it hit something. This didn’t work too well, because we had to reach around the door while pulling the brick toward us and simultaneously closing the door just the right amount so that a cat could fit in but a dog could not. Not only was compliance among the humans inconsistent, but the dogs learned quickly that, with a little shoulder power, the door to the snack shop would open.

Calvin ponders whether to leave the relative safety of the basement steps. The beautiful boxes are there to prop the door open so he has access to the litter, and the dogs do not.
We upped our game by adding bungee cord and door stop combination. Clever dogs figured out how to push through that, too.

Bungee cord and box combination. Not very pretty — and it didn’t work too well either.
Then we tried using pressure-mounted baby gates, blocking off access to our laundry room and the bathroom where the most-used litter box was kept. The gate was secured about five inches off the ground, high enough for a cat and maybe a dog nose to go under, but not an entire dog.

A pressure-mounted gate installed a few inches above the ground was another solution. Tucker and Jasper can get their heads under the gate, but not the rest of their bodies.
That worked, but it was incredibly inconvenient; every time we left the house, did our laundry, walked out the back door, or used the downstairs bathroom, we had to take down the gate and put it up again. Take down the gate and put it up again.Take down the gate and put it up again. That got old real fast.

Calvin easily crawls under the gate.
I scoured the internet for solutions. Surely, I was not the only one looking for an answer to this problem. I found a special door latch called a Peek a Boo, that featured a long metal hook to kept the door open just enough for a cat to fit through, but not for my dogs. It was kind of ugly, but it was worth a try. My husband installed one as a test, drilling holes in the door and the jamb.

We tried the Peek A Boo door latch, and while it did work for a while, Tucker figured out that if he banged the door hard enough, he could knock the latch out of it’s spot.
This latch was nothing more than a food puzzle for my determined terrier Tucker. He figured out that if scratched and banged at the door long enough, he could dislodge the hook. Or he just squeezed his way in and back out again.

Tucker is proud he was able to solve the puzzle, even if he destroyed the door in the process.
Then, at the Cat Writers’ Association / BlogPaws conference in June, I found the solution. In each of our swag bags was a Door Buddy, an adjustable, inexpensive latch / strap that requires no tools to install.

Door Buddy door strap to the rescue!
Retailing for $14.97, Door Buddies come in several color styles to match your decor. They install with a 3M adhesive that holds really well. So well that when Aaron forgot the Door Buddy was hooked and he yanked open his door, the latch stayed fixed, pulling a large paint chip along with it. That was easily repaired by gluing the paint — with the latch still attached — back to the wall.

Door Buddy ADD MORE TO CAPTION
Since the hook itself is long, Tucker can’t bang it open. And, because the strap is adjustable — unlike the Peek a Boo — I could make the opening too small for any of my poop hunters to get through.
Since the Door Buddy doesn’t hold a door open — it just restricts how wide it opens — at first I was concerned that one of the doors would get banged shut, and trap a cat in a bathroom. That never happened. The closest we came to that was when one of our dogs walked by the basement door and knocked into it, but the door didn’t close all the way. Besides, all my cats have learned how to push open doors that aren’t secured. If you’re worried about that, though, the Door Buddy people also sell Pinch Guards that prevent a door from closing all the way. They thought of everything.

Jasper can peek his head in, but can’t open the door.
I now have Door Buddies on every door that leads to a litter box.
And you can too!

If you’ve ever been the furparent to both a cat and dog at the same time, you may know the troubles that come along with the kitty litter. While your dog may enjoy the occasional snack from the litter box, it’s our job to protect them at all times. This means keeping them happy and healthy wherever we can!
Many turn to cat flaps and pet doors to help pet proof their cat’s litter box but these can often be expensive and require complicated installations. Another solution that works like a charm is a simple door latch. Using a door latch, like Door Buddy, can be extremely useful if you’re looking to give the cat access to their privacy but still keeping the dog out. It’s also a discreet option that won’t interfere with your home’s decor.
Before diving into how you can use Door Buddy and how it can solve your pet proofing problems, let’s take a look at the importance of protecting your cat’s space.
Why You Should Give Cats Their Space
The joys of having your two pets get along can make for a happy home. However, it is possible that your dog enjoys your cat’s company a bit too much. When dogs become attached to their furry friends, this often causes problems for your cat and even the entire home too. These problems include the following:
Getting into the Cat Litter
Dogs are natural scavengers and as much as it may gross us out, they have no problem sneaking a snack from the litter box. There are many reasons for this but mainly it’s because the litter smells like your cat.
The truth is, eating these treats can cause major problems for your dog’s health and spread internal parasites across your home. Not to mention that it can disrupt their digestive system too. Then there’s the fact that your cat may become fed-up with their intruder and reject using their litter box as a result.
Creating an Unhealthy Diet
Not creating a safe space for your cat’s litter and food makes it a lot easier for your dog to eat unhealthy treats. This means that not only is your dog getting more calories but your cat is being deprived of the nutrients they need. However, both pets need to maintain a healthy diet to support them as they age and to promote a healthy system.
Increasing Stress Levels
It’s no secret that cats can be fickle and slightly nervous creatures. If they’re feeling threatened by your dog’s overbearing playfulness, they might feel the need to retreat in times of stress. Furthermore, if they are unable to enjoy the privacy of their litter box or food, they will reject it. This is why it’s important to provide your kitty with a safe place to retreat to without running into their fur-siblings.
Your No-Fuss Answer to Dog Proofing! Introducing Door Buddy
Sure, there are plenty of pet proofing solutions on the market, but are any of them effective and budget-friendly? For those who are looking to make their lives easier, I’d like to introduce you to the Door Buddy. Say goodbye to expensive pet gates and that dog proof litter box that your cat never really got used to!
The Door Buddy makes dog proofing simple with its no tool installation process and owner-friendly uses. Better yet, it keeps dogs out of the rooms with the kitty litter and cat food while giving yourself and cat easy access without having to navigate a tricky pet gate or install an interior cat door.
How Does the Door Buddy Work?
With the Door Buddy, you can say goodbye to your worries and give your cat their privacy back. This adjustable door strap won’t require you to drill into any walls or doors either, but simply uses adhesives to keep the latch in place.
To install your Door Buddy, just place the adhesive on your door and door frame then insert the hook into the latch mechanism. When you want to enter the room, all there is to do is to flip the hook up and out of the latch. Easy Peasy. For your cat, you can adjust the width of the product to suit its size – just make sure to make it big enough for your cat but small enough to keep the dog out.
If you’ve got kids running around the home too, Door Buddy’s combo product comes with a door stopper. This will keep your cat’s tail, or your child’s fingers, from slamming in the door.
The good news about this product is that you won’t be required to spend a hefty amount either. Unlike other pet proofing products, these latches will cost you less than $20 but will still provide a safe and secure solution. Door Buddy’s products range from $15.94 – $18.97 based on if you only buy the latch or the full combo and can be found on Amazon too.
