vabunobuno ni move something to and fro

• • move something to and fro
  • • motion

  • • Example 8334:
      

      Eara repaa vaagunaha a kanono, vaantee koa tobina, eara repaa vabunobuno koa ni rae a kanono, a beana re potee voen na vavaaiku nana.

      Then we let the string down, but only halfway down and move the string to and fro so that the bait looks like swinging to and fro.

      eara repaa vabunobuno ni rara a kanono
