what is the meaning and usage of these tagolog words?

Kaso---meaning found is case (as in court case)
Saken--meaning found is mine
Jota--I assume this is more of a slang word, possibly referring to kids?
Mangyayori--Not much found on this one.

Additional Details:

Is mangyayori possibly nangyayori? Found for nangyari is "history"

    Kaso could mean 'case' or 'but' depending on how you use it.
    ex: Magsampa ng kaso. - File a case or sue someone.
    Papunta na ako kaso inutasan ako ng nanay ko. - I was on my way but my mother sent me on an errand.

    Saken or sakin is a shortcut for 'sa akin' which means 'mine.'
    es: Sa akin ito. - This is mine.

    Mangyayari is the correct word. It means 'will happen.'
    ex: Ano kaya ang mangyayari sa kanya. - I wonder what's going to happen to him/her.

    I am unfamiliar with the word 'jota'.

     

    It is Mangyayari not Mangyayori.

    Mangyayari is the future tense of Nagyayari. Nagyayari is the continuous tense.
    Manyayari means "will happen". Nangyayari means "happening"

    JOTA is a Spanish word means "JOT" or in Tagalog, it is "ITALA"
