Notes
1. Learning Bisaya
Categories: None -- Permalink
Are there comprehensive Bisaya references with example sentences,
aside from http://www.bohol.ph/books/Jimenez/EnglishBisayaGrammar.html
?
Although if I stick with the guide, I'll be able to say things like
"Daco man ang castigo nga ipahamtang canimo sa infierno."
I'd like to learn Bisaya, but I'm worried I might end up with archaic forms... <grin>
