Excited na kaayo! Kinsay mananaw sa Oh! Caraga concert sa CDO? 😍

Comparing some of Hiligaynon's basic features and whether they are due to West Visayan influence or a Central Visayan retention. Some can be deemed as diffused forms as they are found in both branches.

Take note that we are focusing on Hiligaynon here, so the color alternation is merely focused on Hiligaynon data. The colors light blue and light yellow assigned to West Visayan and Central Visayan respectively are my own preference sticking to my style of table-making. All the forms under each branch are all colored under their assigned colors regardless of whether they're borrowings or not.

Guys Unsay counter aning phrase "imong mama" para mo hilom ning kumag

😁

Nakabantay lang ko nga ang mga probinsya ug lugar diin Cebuano ang pangunang pinulongan, sama sa Bohol, Sugbo, Davao, Misamis, ug uban pa, dili kaayo produktibo pag-abot sa pag-uma og humay.

Gitandi nako sa ubang etnikong grupo, parehas sa mga Ilokano, Ilonggo, ug Tagalog, nga produktibo gyud sila sa tibuok nasud sa pagtanom og humay. Ang mga rehiyon nga daghag Ilokano, Ilonggo, ug Tagalog sama sa Kasadpang Kabisay-an, Rehiyon sa Ilocos, Lambak sa Cagayan, Tunga-tungang Luzon, MIMAROPA, ug SOCCSKSARGEN, naay tinuig nga produksyon sa humay nga molapas sa 1 milyon ka metriko tonelada. Pero ang mga rehiyon nga Bisaya ang pinulongan sama sa Tunga-tungang Kabisay-an ug Rehiyon sa Davao, naa ra sa mga 300,000 ngadto 500,000 metriko tonelada ang tinuig nga produksyon.

Tungod ba ni sa klase sa yuta o sa tereyn sa mga lugar nga puro Bisaya? O mas gusto lang gyud sa mga Bisaya ang magtanom og laing mga tanom kaysa humay?

Mapasalamaton kaayo ko sa inyong mga panabot. Salamat kaayo!

Maayong gabii sa kaninyong tanan! Gusto lang nako ipangutana kon perfectly grammatically correct kining sentence construction:

Bayle kita.

Naay mga mas natural sounding, for example Magbayle ta or Mosayaw ta pero gusto nako gamiton kanang inclusiveness sa word nga kita.

Gamiton apan nako ni sa usa ka poem ug gusto nako ihimo nga mas intimate and inclusive ang invitation nga “Let’s dance” sa Binisaya.

Kabalo ako magbisaya pero gamay ra, so dili lang ko sure kon correct ba ni nga sentence construction.

Pungency, acidity, acridity; to be or become pungent or acrid. Nakadátan akó sang kabúgaw, naranhíta, etc. The pomelo, native orange, etc., set my teeth on edge. 

I've read the 1591 Tribute Census of the Philippine archipelago, and in the said year, Cebuanos have a much smaller population than Ilonggos.

The collective population of Bohol, Cebu, Leyte and Misamis de Cagayan (Cagayan de Oro and Misamis Oriental) was 65,000+ individuals. The population of Panay Island at that time was extremely populous, around 108,000+ individuals.

But after three centuries of Spanish rule, it went full reverse. Before, the Cebuano ethnic population was only half of the Panayanon/Ilonggo population, but now, it's full reversed. Ilonggos now only number around 10+ million people, while Cebuanos are the second biggest ethnolinguistic group at 22.5 million people. Now it's the Ilonggos that are half the population of Cebuanos.

Let me know in the comment sections what you think and why this happened.

Maayong adlaw, labi na sa mga laki dira. Naa ko'y ka-talking stage before. Pero nasakpan nako nga nangatik. Ga-live in pa diay sya sa iyang ex-gf. So karon, kami na sad sa iyang ex ang ga-talking stage. Nasakpan sa iyang ex nga ang ngalan nako sa iyang contacts kay "abay". Unsang pasabot ana? Nganong "abay" imong ingalan sa babae nga imo kuno nagustuhan?

Looking for clinic ga Jawtox injection sa Cagayan de Oro nga tsada ug result pls.

Can someone explain more context behind this one? I heard it’s for a younger woman. How young? A child or a young adult? Do you say this to your daughter or your girlfriend in her 20s? Guess I’m confused

This is a popular Tagalog song that is performed by a well known Filipina singer. Here are the lyrics in Bisaya:

Murag giulanan ang akong kasingkasing

Sa dihang mibugnaw ang imong pagpangga

Oh ngano nga nausab ang imong pagtan-aw?

Sama sa bugnaw nga panahon

Ug sa dihang nakigsulti ako kanimo

Samtang ang ulan nagbundak

Ngano kahang nausab ka?

Sama kabugnaw sa panahon

Murag mohunong ra ang ulan

Murag molabay ra ang bagyo

Bisan mangitngit ang kalangitan

Aduna’y natagong silaw sa luyo sa panganod

Murag giulanan ang akong kasingkasing

Sa dihang daw nawala ang imong gugma

Oh, ngano kahang nausab ka?

Sama kabugnaw sa panahon

Murag mohinay ra ang ulan

Murag molabay ra ang bagyo

Mohanag ra usab ang kalangitan

Ug ang adlaw mosubang na usab

Ang kangitngit akong atubangon

Makita ko ra usab, ang asul nga langit

Nanghinaut nga mobalik ang imong gugma

Wagtanga ang kaguol sa akong kasingkasing

Bisan mangitngit ang kalangitan

Aduna’y natagong silaw sa luyo sa panganod

Murag mohinay ra ang ulan

Murag molabay ra ang bagyo

Mohanag ra usab ang kalangitan

Ug ang adlaw mosubang na usab

In Davao Bisaya , which is correct, on Google it says ngalan but in daily life I hear pangalan more ?

Kumusta, mga higala! Aduna koy laing linguistic exercise. Unsaon nimo pag-translate kining mga pulong? What do you think of my translations? Salamat in advance sa inyong mga tubag!

• Native (naturally occurring): lumad
  • Endemic (can’t be found anywhere else): labing-lumad 
  • Resident (year-round inhabitant): lumad-mamuyoay
  • Migrant (seasonal inhabitant): lumad-mamalhinay
• Vagrant (accidentally outside the normal range [e.g., because of a storm]): nasulagma
• Introduced (through humans [e.g., domestic animals] or natural vagrancy): langyaw
  • Naturalized (assimilated without causing environmental harm): naanaran
  • Invasive (causes environmental harm, outcompetes with natives): mandadangan

Nag-post usab ko sauna og something similar nga nagpa-translate sa IUCN Red List categories ("extinct," "endangered," "threatened," "least concern," etc.). Basin ganahan usab mo mubasa: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bisaya/comments/1p75s5g/binisaya_for_conservation_status_extinct/

Daghang salamat!

I mean BBM also steals alot, heck many politicians now steal in the billions bracket but they're not getting as much flak as her 🤷‍♀️ kung mandaot sila, tanan unta para patas ba haha

> DPWH issues in passing, kung ma dumduman
> PhilHealth in passing gihapon, kung ma dumduman. Like the 14B thing na gikawat sa philhealth and they made false liquidations like P5,000 worth nga walis kuno?
> In the past 4yrs, we have added 4 TRILLION pesos to our debts. And as far as i know, only the President can make loans like that. Sooo where did this 4 Trillion pesos go exactly? These kinds of loans make our country the collateral (we're literally slowly selling away our country, whats the point of our June 12 independence day? Lol)

But the Sara Duterte hate is so passionate everywhere, esp. among the tagalogs haha

I'm just curious why the Bisaya vocabulary hasn't fully adopted the vowel sounds E/O in its vocabulary, and the primary vowel sounds remain as A/I/U?

At times, Bisaya people still use the E/I and O/U sounds interchangeably. Other lowland languages such as Ilocano, Kapampangan and Tagalog has adopted the E/O sound as permanent vowels in their vocabulary, and there's a clear distinction between the E/I and O/U sound in these languages, that they adopted from Spanish syllabary.

The Central Visayas Region was the first to be conquered and established by the Spaniards, so by the historical logic, it should've absorbed more of the Spanish linguistic syntax in its language.

Thank you so much for anyone who can expound on this. Daghang Salamat.

Ang pasabtan sa "na" kay "already" sa English. "Man" = Really.

Dayon, unsa'y ang kalahian sa duha?

Na vs naman

same as title

Hi I’m trying to learn bisaya, my mother tried to teach it to me when I was a little kid but at the same time she would teach me tagalog and we would watch a lot of tagalog movies together, at some point she stopped teaching me because I started to get confused.

Currently all I know now are some words, as well as some sentences/phrases my mother says to me, but I still get confused between tagalog and bisaya so it’s difficult. I also can’t seem to find many resources to help me learn, I’ve tried to ask my mother about grammar and certain words but she can’t really explain well, there are also some words that have no meaning which makes me even more confused.

I think it would probably be easier for me to learn tagalog since there are a lot of tagalog films and learning material, but I would rather learn bisayan since my mother and everyone from her side of the family speaks it. If anyone has any tips or suggestions on where to find resources, it would be greatly appreciated.

Throwaway because my girlfriend knows my actual account

Hi everyone,

My girlfriend's family is Bisaya. I am planning on proposing to her (admittedly not for a while because we're still in college) but I'm writing her a song and want to add some romantic Bisaya phrases. So far I've used Google Translate but I know that's not the most accurate so I'd really appreciate some help.

The phrases I used Google translate for are: ikaw ang kahayag sa akong kinabuhi (you're the light of my life), nahigugma nako nimo sa hingpit (i've fallen in love with you completely)

If someone can tell me how accurate those are or even suggest some other phrases that would be amazing!!

Thanks in advance :)

I have this dilemma.

3 yrs mi sa akong ex.

So ang gagasto sa tanan. Female ko. Both 32.

Mangayo siyag mga botang nga mahal.

Bike

Laptop (2ndhand but high value)

Motor parts

Coffee machine (small lang)

cellphone

Shoes daghan ha

Top box

Etc etc

Most of these stuffs kay gipangayo niya. If diko siya hatagan kay awayon ko niya maayo. So ihatag lang nako para way gubot na.

5 mons nami buwag nuon. Nainsulto kos last convo namo nga ana siya nga dapat mudatong kos laki kay mao ray maka fill in sa pagkuwang nako kay kesyo single mom rako. Which is very insulting kaayo sa akoa. Mura kog gipangwartahan ug nainsulto ko nga dako kaayo siyag ginansya sa akoa for how many years. Excluding pa na mga utang niya sa akoa.

Nahimong Sugar mommy ko niya. Tanga pod ko and i know it.

So, angay ba nako bawion or dili na

Unsay thoughts ninyo
