  • How close is Cebuano, an Austronesian language spoken in the southern Philippines, to Spanish? Is it possible for a Spanish speaker to understand Cebuano? In this video, Danitza (Spanish speaker) and Miguel (Cebuano speaker) demonstrate some of the commonalities between the two languages with a list of words and sentences.

    The Cebuano language (Bisaya) is an Austronesian language spoken in the southern Philippines, namely in Central Visayas, western parts of Eastern Visayas, and on majority of Mindanao. Until the 1980s, Cebuano had the largest native language-speaking population in the Philippines. It is the lingua franca of the Central Visayas, western parts of Eastern Visayas, some western parts of Palawan, and most parts of Mindanao. The name Cebuano is derived from the island of Cebu. Geographically speaking, the language is spoken in the provinces of Cebu, Bohol, Siquijor, Negros Oriental, northeastern Negros Occidental, southern Masbate, many parts of Leyte, Biliran, parts of Samar, and most parts of Mindanao, the second largest island of the Philippines. In addition to that, a large portion of Zamboanga, Davao , Surigao, and Cotabato’s population is Cebuano speaking.
    Spanish is a Western Romance language that originated in the Castile region of Spain, which has expanded to become the world's second-most spoken native language group of languages. Most of modern Spanish comes from Latin, with ancient Greek and Arabic also having an impact on the language. It has also been influenced by Basque, Iberian, Celtiberian, Visigothic, French, Italian, Occitan, Catalan and Sardinian, as well as from Nahuatl, Quechua, and other indigenous languages of the Americas. The Spanish language evolved from Vulgar Latin, which was brought to the Iberian Peninsula by the Romans during the Second Punic War, beginning in 210 BC. Previously, several pre-Roman languages, unrelated to Latin, and some of them unrelated even to Indo-European, were spoken in the Iberian Peninsula. These languages included Basque (still spoken today), Iberian, Celtiberian and Gallaecian. Today, Spanish is the official language of Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Spain, Uruguay, and Venezuela.

    I love the fact that miguel does not use Bisaya to label Cebuano. Instead, he used Cenibuanong Bisaya (Cebuanong Binisaya). Because most people have forgotten that bisaya is not just cebuano. Bisaya is a general term used to refer to many languages spoken in the Visayas including Romblomanon, Cuyonon and Minasbate. Cebuano is bisaya but not all bisaya are cebuano.

When I heard my colleagues on the ship talk to each other I sometimes couldn't help shouting "oh my god, that one is the same in Spanish!". And when I was on the bridge and our 3rd officer handed over the watch to the 2nd officer, who spoke both cebuano, I understood a lot. It was such a great experience! 😁

      Yep. Tagalog became larger bc it's what the people in the Manila region spoke and Manila was chosen to be the capital by the Spaniards so the economy and population grew over time. Bisayans and most Filipinos in PH sometimes learn Tagalog if they want to work in Manila also.

    I like how this cebuano guy knows the difference between the dialect and language. Nowadays most of filipinos thinks that languages like bisaya, kapampangan, ilokano, hiligaynon and other 187+ philippine languages are dialect. I'm proud of him even though i'm not a cebuano or speak the language. I wish next time my language kapampangan will feature in this channel. Like the similarities between kapampangan vs spanish or kapampangan vs cantonese/hokkien, since spanish and chinese has influence in kapampangan language (except that kapampangan has more spanish than cantonese, we use times, countings, weekdays/weekends, objects/things in spanish)also, like the other philippine languages.
    Edit: but i think you need to look more about the chavacanos, it is similar to spanish than bisaya. Bisaya is more closer to bahasa indonesian than spanish.

      but if Tagalog is the national language (which used to be that way in the past), Cebuano, Hiligaynon, Ilokano etc are also languages. is this how Dept of Education is teaching our kids now?

Official or not still, nothing changes the fact that languages like cebuano, hiligaynon, kapampangan, ilonggo etc. Are languages because in history they are languages and not dialects and also they have their own historical writing system not just baybayin, kapampangan and bisaya has a writing system too just like kulitan and badlit(if they are a dialects of filipino then they will have to use baybayin also but no because baybayin is for tagalog only and kapampangan doesn't have a letter H or Ha but the baybayin alphabet has). And this languages have their own set of rules, own vocab and different grammar(that's makes them a language), so they're not mutually intelligible to each other.

The Mestizos de Españoles and other Europeans? The Amboys from sex tourism and American military? The Mestizo de Japoneses from WWII or de Chinos from trade and business way before Spanish colonisation? What about the Filipinos who were refugees from the Middle East recently?

    In the second phrase could be correct because in different countries of latin america this word is used in different way. I my country we use "botar" when we throw something in purpose.

    I'm glad the host really emphasis that Cebuano is a language and not dialect. Cebuano is a language because it has its own set of rules when it comes to grammar, phonetics, sentence structure, vocabulary, etc while a dialect is a linguistic variation of a language that is peculiar to a certain group of people/community example is Bol-anon. Bol-anon is a dialect or variant of Cebuano because although both are mutually intelligible but Bol-anon has a certain distinct characteristic that is unique to them e.g. the 'y' replacement but still means the same. Kaayo (cebuano) is kaajo (bolanon) which means very (english); bay-i (cebuano) and baj-i (bolanon) which means girl (english), etc.

      I guess there was a purpose why we were taught in school that the philippines has 170 dialects rather than 170 languages or dialects to emphasize unity and cohesion rather than regionalism/division. As i grew older I can understand the intention of the government but sometimes, these misconceptions seep into the filipinos consciousness that oftentimes one regional language is compromised, or worse, relegated over a dominant language as in the case of tagalog/filipino, being the country's national language. Good thing though, in the recent times, mother tongues are being taught/promoted in schools and with the advent of social media and technology, filipinos have become aware that filipinos all over the country have many languages and they are equal in dignity and it's not necessary that it'a tagalog or filipino.

    Actually Filipino Chavacano is much closer to Spanish which is a very interesting read. Cebuano uses a lot of object/description words that are the same or close to the Spanish words. A lot of words that have "v" in the Spanish word is replaced by a "b" in the Filipino language due to the Filipino having a smaller/limited alphabet/sounds.The "v" sound is typically foreign. Ex. "vaca" (cow) becomes "baka" (also "c"s are usually replaced with a "k". "ventana" (window) becomes "bintana". Spanish verbs like "cantar" becomes "kanta" in Cebuano meaning to sing. I was born in the city of Cebu but moved to the US before I was a year old. My family still speaks the dialect so when I took Spanish 1 in high school, I already had an advantage. It was much easier to learn. Lucky me! I learned some new words or got a refresher in this video. We eat chicken on the island so the turkey is not common. I was not familiar with "pabo" because it's not uncommon to just use the english word "turkey". The country's languages has been influenced by so many other languages like Spanish and English (US) due to centuries of contact with other countries. Thanks Bahador for uploading this.

    Top 3 Most Spoken Bisaya languages:
    1. Cebuano 20 million
    2. Hiligaynon 10 million
    3. Waray 3 million
    www.pagadian.org/bisaya.htm
    Who Are the Bisaya (Visayan) People?
    Bisaya is a general term use to describe different Bisaya Ethnic groups and different Bisaya languages. Same with referring to the word Chinese, there are different ethnic groups of Chinese peole and different Chinese dialers/languages such as Mandarin. Cantonese etc.
    BISAYA (Bisayans or Visayans) are people who trace their Ethnic roots or bloodline in Bisaya islands (Visayas islands).
    These Bisaya islands (Visayas islands) are: Panay, Romblon, Guimaras, Negros,Cebu, Bohol, Siquijor, Leyte, Biliran and Samar.
    In 1940s heavy migration to Mindanao of the Bisaya people spurred by government-sponsored resettlement programmes. Because of migration over time, a large part of Mindanao is now largely populated by Bisaya people from Iloilo, Antique, Cebu, Dumaguete, Samar, Leyte, and Bohol.
    Bisaya is a group of related languages belonging to the Malayo-Polynesian family. Spoken in the central and southern Philippines, it is comprised of roughly 25 languages, some near extinction with under 1,000 native speakers and others spoken by millions. Bisaya includes Cebuano, Hiligaynon or Ilonggo, Aklanon, Capiznon, Kinaray-a, Bantoanon, Romblomanon, Cuyonon, Waray, Surigaonon, Butuanon, Tausog, etc. Spoken by approximately 28 million people, the Bisaya language family has the largest number of native speakers in the Philippines. The next two are the Tagalogs and Ilokanos.
    Note: There are also Bisaya people who live in the coastline of Borneo in Malaysia.
    Bisaya people speak related languages belonging to the Malayo-Polynesian family.
    There are different Bisaya Languages
    These Languages are: Hiligaynon, Aklanon, Cebuano, Capiznon, Kinaray-a, Bantoanon, Romblomanon, Waray, Surigaonon, Cuyonon, etc.
    Most people who speak the Cebuano language from the Bisaya islands and Mindanao do not know the Ethnic and Language history of Bisaya Islands that is why they assume that the Cebuano language is the only Bisaya or Binisaya language which is false. They assume that Hiligaynon, Capiznon, Karay-a, Waray, etc are not Bisaya or Binisaya language which is wrong. The provinces that speak those languages are also located in Bisaya islands, same as Cebu which is located in the Bisaya islands before the Cebuano language spread in Mindanao in the 1940's. It is wrong to say that in Cebu we speak Bisaya or Binisaya while in Bacolod and Iloilo they speak Hiligaynon/Ilonggo because Iloilo and Bacolod speak Bisaya language which is called Hiligaynon.
    Different Bisaya languages are spoken by Bisaya people in the 6 Major BISAYA Islands are:
    1. The Bisaya Island of Panay = languages of the Bisaya People in Panay are: Hiligaynon (Iloilo and Roxas), Karay-a, (Iloilo and Antique) Aklanon (Aklan), and Capiznon (Capiz).
    2. The Bisaya Island of Negros = languages of the Bisaya People in Negros are: Cebuano (Negros Oriental) and Hiligaynon (Negros Occidental)
    3. The Bisaya Island of Cebu = language of the Bisaya People in Cebu province is Cebuano
    4. The Bisaya Island of Bohol = language of the Bisaya People in Bohol is Boholano (local version of Cebuano language)
    5. The Bisaya Island of Leyte = languages of the Bisaya People in Leyte are: Waray (Northern Leyte) and Cebuano (Southern Leyte)
    6. The Bisaya Island of Samar =languages of the Bisaya People in Samar are: Waray (Eastern Samar) and Cebuano (Southern Samar)
    These are the 6 main Islands of Bisaya. The people who live here are called Bisaya or Visayans.
    Heavy migration to Mindanao of people from Cebu and Dumaguete etc in 1940's, spurred by government-sponsored resettlement programs is the reason why 90% of Mindanao people speak the Cebuano language. Cebuano is a part of the Visayan language family.
    Because of migration over time, a large part of Mindanao is now largely populated by Bisaya people from Iloilo, Antique, Cebu, Dumaguete, Samar, Leyte, and Bohol.
    Mindanao provinces that speak the CEBUANO language: Zamboanga del Norte, Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga Sibugay Davao del Sur, Davao Oriental, Misamis Oriental, Misamis Occidental, Bukidnon, Lanao del Norte, Lanao del Sur, South Cotabato, North Cotabato,Saranggani, Sultan Kudarat.
    The origin of the term “Visayan “ is unclear. Some sources say it refers to Shri Vijaya, the ancient island Southeast Asian empire to which the original Visayans supposedly belonged. Others consider the term a literal rendering of the Visayan sadya or the Tagalog saya, meaning happiness. The latter version appears to stem from the stereotype that Visayans are a generally laid-back, fun loving and happy-go-lucky people. But as Visayans themselves would put it, they are a hardworking people who just know how to enjoy life.
    BISAYA (Bisayans or Visayans) are people who trace their Ethnic roots or bloodline in Bisaya islands (Visayas islands).
    These Bisaya islands (Visayas islands) are: Panay, Romblon, Guimaras, Negros,Cebu, Bohol, Siquijor, Leyte, Biliran and Samar.

By the way, @#BahadorAlast, if you want to feature another language in the Philippines that uses much more Spanish words, I wanna recommend "Chavacano" language. I would say, though I love and agree that Cebuano uses much of Spanish words, it is Chavacano language that is very similar to Spanish language and uses a lot more of Spanish words than any other languages in the Philippines. It's like 60% or higher of their words are Spanish. This is based on my experience with some of my Chavacano friends who migrated there when I was still in Cebu (where the word "Cebuano" language originated from).

    I remember I used to have a blog in Spanish around 2008 or so, and in the counter stats, it showed that Cebuano was one of the 3 top languages that visitors had their browsers configured with. Made a lot of sense after realizing how strong the similarities were when it comes to certain phrases.

    Remember that Magellan was first landed in Cebu so it was the first city was taken over by Spaniards so that might be the reason why Cebuano has the most spanish influence.

    4:41 Es normal que el filipino entienda toda la frase menos bote,porque en Latinoamérica bote es como lanzar(creo) pero claro,los filipinos fueron colonizados por hispanohablantes de España y en España se dice lanzé,tendrías que haber traído a una persona que hablara español de España.

      En realidad durante la mayor parte del periodo colonial, Filipinas estuvo administrada desde Ciudad de México por el virreinato de Nueva España, fue después de la independencia de México en 1821 que pasó a estar administrado desde Madrid. El español que se hablaba en Filipinas estaba más influenciado por el español de América y de hecho tenía seseo (cuando se hablaba).

Cuando hablaba en español, él se usa vosotros en vez de ustedes. Hay palabras también como el coche, chiquitín y paipai (las palabras que se usan también en España). Y por eso creo que el español de España es más cercano a nosotros.
