Your question is not so clear. Do you wish to ask what the English verb "Nag" is in the Ilocano Dialect or do you mean to ask how to translate the Pilipino prefix "Nag" in the Ilocano dialect.

It is not clear to me if "nag" means anything in Ilocano.
But if you need some help with other Ilocano/ Filipino words, don't hesitate to contact me.

nag is a prefix used in most tagalog words to change its tense into present and past tense:
for example:
nag + luto(cook) [root word] = nag-luto [cooked]
nag + luluto (cook) = nag-luluto [cooking]
to make a verb change it's form into present tense, we usually write the first syllable twice ,then add the prefix "nag" like in "nag-luluto".
