What's "selfie" in Tetum?

Onca selfie (pronounced onka); can be used as verb or noun; mai ita onca tiha lai let's take a selfie. Abbreviated from oin camera camera face in reference to people who have a pathological attraction to camera lenses and shutter clicks within arms length.

So, use it next time you want to take a selfie with a Tetum speaker. "Click".
