Root: ay
Usage Notes:Sometimes "ay" will be defined as "is" or "are" because that word will often make sense in that position when translated literally from Tagalog to English. But "ay" does not really mean "is" or "are". It is a sentence inversion marker, which switches the regular order of verb and subject in the construction of a sentence.
