The Philippine Islands, with a population of over ninety-seven million is comprised of seven thousand one hundred seventy islands with residents speaking seven hundred different dialects. Prominent among all the dialects are the Tagalog and Cebuano, widely spoken in many places in the archipelago. Tagalog, being renamed as Filipino, officially became the national language. Although considered as the designated national language known as the Filipino language, Tagalog originally was spoken only in the capital city, Manila compared to Cebuano which is widely spoken in the Visayas and Mindanao. Neighboring provinces in Luzon have their own spoken dialect such as Ilocano in the Ilocos region (northern Luzon), Bicolano in the Bicol region (lower eastern Luzon), Pampangueno in the central plain region, Caviteno in the lower western Region, and Tagalog in the lower southern region. The Cebuano dialect is spoken and understood in the Visayas and Mindanao regions in spite of their local dialects. There are also Cebuano speaking families living in some parts of Luzon. The Ilonggo in western Visayas, Waray in Samar and Leyte in eastern Visayas, and Boholano for people in Bohol in the southern Visayas are regional dialects, but these dialects have only minor deviations from the Cebuano dialect. People who speak the Cebuano dialect are called Bisaya even if they are living outside of the Cebu Province, as they comprise and represent the Visayas region. Where majority of the residents in the Mindanao region are from the Visayas, hence they are also called Bisaya.

The author is keenly particular of the practical impact of learning the basics of the Cebuano language for travelers, explorers, adventurers, island-hoppers, visitors who want to quickly grasp the dialect and move around the Visayan islands freely, while equipped with the knowledge and learning gained from this book. What makes this book different from other Cebuano tutorials? The book goes right to the bottom of speaking the language, rather than immerse the reader in language structure or format and other linguistic formalities. This book is prepared with the busy, time-disadvantaged traveler in mind. You could read this tutorial in between your flight, and the author can guarantee you that by the time you arrive in Cebu and/or the neighboring Visayan-speaking islands, you'll be speaking in the native tongue. This Cebuano language reference book, is definitely not what you need if you are trying to learn the basic structure of the language for the purpose of linguistics or formal language study. You need a different book for that purpose. This is not the book. On the other hand, this book is written with the consideration that language tutorials in general are rather boring. The author attempts to change that by introducing a story-telling approach that will paint a clearer picture of what it really means to not only speak but live the language. If you are reading this book, kudos. You just found your fastest ticket to learning the Cebuano or Visayan dialect. That is ... BisDak... or 'Bisaya'ng-Dako' or 'Bisaya nga Dako' .... which translates to 'a Cebuano at heart'.

This is a dictionary of Cebuano Visayan, the language of the central part of the Philippines and much of Mindanao. Although the explanations are given in English, the aim of this work is not to provide English equivalents but to explain Cebuano forms in terms of themselves. It is meant as a reference work for Cebuano speakers and as a tool for students of the Cebuano language. There is a total of some 25,000 entries and an addenda of 700 forms which were prepared after the dictionary had been composed. This dictionary is the product of eleven years work by more than a hundred persons. The work was edited by John Wolff but the sources are entirely native, and all illustrations are composed by native speakers. To date, this work probably represents the most authoritative dictionary of the Cebuano Visayan language.
