Daghan kaayong salamat, Thea ☺

Thank you so much for your kind words, JD! ☺

Daghan kaayong salamat sa pagtan-aw ug sa imong komento 😊 I appreciate it a lot! I'm looking forward to the day that you'll get to converse with your lola in Cebuano with ease. You'll get there! And thank you for choosing to keep Cebuano in your family by planning to teach your children. For me, it'd very important for them to learn more about their roots esp. the language itself.

Because it's followed by a case marker, which in this case is "si". Naa si Matt sa kusina. (Matt is in the kitchen) Naay kusina si Matt. (Matt has a kitchen) Hope this helps :)

"Inig" is used in the sense of "when". "Mouli siya inig hunong sa ulan." "He will go home when the rain stops." "Motawag siya inig ka Domingo." "He will call when Sunday comes."

@@BisayangPanda Karon pa ko 😅

@@BisayangPanda Mas maayo man ka sa Bisaya kay sa nako oi 😂

Way sapayan, tua! Salamat sa pagtan-aw ☺

Cebuano language, like Filipino/Tagalog, doesn't have tenses. 'I did not work yesterday' is expressed as 'Wala ko nagtrabaho.' If you have heard 'wala ko magtrabaho' being used, that might be a dialect.

Okay thanks. This is what I mean: Wala ka moadto sa tindahan. You did/do not go to the store. Dili ka moadto sa tindahan. You will not go to the store. So instead of saying "wala ka NIadto" it would be correct to say "wala ka MOadto".

@@CarabaoTravelChannel the correct translation for "You did not go there." would be "Wala ka NIadto sa tindahan." Mo- prefix is used for an action that has not yet begun. Aside from ni-, some people also prefer to use mi-, ning-, and ming-. We will have a lesson talking about aspects and prefixes in the future that may help provide a clearer understanding on this topic. 🙂

@@BisayangPanda Okay thanks. I'll just leave these other resources with given examples here if someone who is studying the language wants to form an opinion of their own. You may search these from Google for free since CZcams autodeletes comments with links. Cebuano Grammar Notes by Maria Victoria R. Bunye Elsa Paula Yap Chapter G: Negative particles: Wala MOkaon ang prinsesa. Wala MAkuha ang retrato. Wala MAGbasa ang maestro-pagabot namo. Wala MAGestorya si Lola pagtelepono nimo. AND CZcams: Just4Kixs Intermediate Cebuano - Negatives 7 Wala: mag, mo, maka... AND Wikipedia: Cebuano grammar, Active voice affixes Walâ ka MOadto sa tindahan. Walâ siyá MAGkaón sa Jollibee. Walâ akó MAGkahigugma kanimo.

@@CarabaoTravelChannel Oh, I think I might've somehow misunderstood your original comment. I haven't heard of this grammar rule 'til you mentioned it; thanks for bringing it up! I'll have to dig deeper on this topic as nowadays, "wala" is accompanied by perfective affixes for negating actions in the past. That's why when we do a quick search online, for example: "wala nikaon" vs "wala mokaon", we'd see more results for the former with posts from people nowadays compared to the latter, which has more results from Bible scriptures. Personally, while I still hear very few people still use "wala" with "mo-", it's becoming quite rare nowadays though. I've also asked some people from other places like CDO, Bohol, and Cebu and they also use it with "ni-". I think it might be one of those grammar rules that are slowly being forgotten over time (like 'aduna' and some demonstrative pronouns) or kind of evolving/changing in a way. It might also be worth noting that Cebuano Grammar Notes by Bunye was published in 1971.

Thanks a bunch for your positive feedback, fluidsings! Delighted to hear you're also enjoying other series in my channel ☺

Walay sapayan, Chris! Salamat sa pag-comment sa akong mga videos. I appreciate it a lot! ☺

Thanks for the kind words, Joel! I'm thrilled to hear you're enjoying the tests. 😊 And yes, developing a website is definitely on our radar for future plans. Stay tuned!

Not yet, but it's in our future plans 🤫

Daghang salamat, Christopher! I truly appreciate your support and hope you enjoyed it! :)

Yung Cebuano mismo eh language talaga sya, hindi dialect. Ang proper name talaga is Cebuano, hindi bisaya kasi malaki ang sakop pag "Bisaya". Nasanay lang mga Pinoy na tawaging "Bisaya" both ang language at yung mga speaker nun.

​@@BisayangPandasalamat po sa pagsagot!❤

​@@BisayangPandamay tanong pa po pala ako,Magkaiba po ba ang Ilonggo at Cebuano o parehas lang sila magkaiba lang ung pangalan?,nung nasa iloilo pa kasi kami akala ko po akoy nagsasalita ng bisaya(sabi din kasi ni mama "bisaya" ung sinasalita namin dun,sa pagkakaalam niya)pero d ko alam baka hiligaynon pala sinasalita namin dun,actually kung di ako nag search di ko pa malalaman na meron palang dialect or language na ang tawag ay "hiligaynon",sa palagay ko napagkamalan ko ung hiligaynon na "bisaya".(nag research naman ako tungkol dito pero iba parin talaga kapag expert ung sasagot sakin hehe)
