 * 1985, Sabah Society, Journal - Sabah Society, volume 8, page 282:
 * It is taboo to say the name of the dead. When an immediate family member dies the other members take a necronym, or death name. The necronym is used as both a term of reference and a term of address. Should the husband die, the wife is referred to as si pud 'widow' and called pud 'widow'. If the wife were to die, the husband is referred to as si bulueh 'widower' and called bulueh 'widower'.
