What does the Gungan word weesong mean?

Since starting this “International Talk Like Jar Jar Binks Day” project a few years ago, one of my primary tasks has been documenting all of the Gungan words and phrases that have ever been said in any Star Wars project. I’ve watched the films many times and gone through all of the episodes of the Clone Wars in which any Gungans appear. I’ve read through the scripts of the films and the novelizations. I’ve tracked down prequel era books that featured Jar Jar. I’ve created a database of Gungan words and their meanings, which has grown to include several hundred entries.  But there’s still one word that continues to perplex me. And that is “weesong.” []
