CEBUANO LANGUAGE in the Queen City | Bisaya sa Cebu

Is Cebuano a royal language? Well, it was the native tongue of Lapu-Lapu, the warrior king of Mactan who defeated Ferdinand Magellan. He is recognized as the first Filipino hero to resist European occupation, and his victory delayed the Spanish colonization of the Philippines for decades! Today, Cebuano is the main language of Cebu City---the Queen City of the South---and myriad other surrounding islands. Cebuano is also the mother tongue of numerous Filipina beauty queens. So many royal connections! In this video, Firth and three Cebuana beauty queens tour the Queen City of the South and its rapidly evolving language. Cebuano is a native language of the Philippines. It is the second-largest language in the country by the total number of speakers and maybe the largest mother tongue. It is a Visayan language, related to other Visayan languages like Hiligaynon, Waray, Akeanon, Minasbate, Kinaray-a, and others. Cebuano is named after the island of Cebu, where the language likely originated before it spread to other parts of the Visayan islands and Mindanao. It is the lingua franca in Cebu, Negros Oriental, Bohol, Siquijor, Camiguin, western Leyte, southern Masbate, and large parts of Mindanao. Cebuano has many varieties (dialects). In this video, we feature the Cebuano spoken in Cebu City. Find out the quirks of the Mother Tongue (Queen’s Tongue?) of the Queen City of the South! Ang Sinugboanong Binisaya usa sa mga lumad nga pinulongan sa Pilipinas. Ikaduha kini sa gidaghanon sa mga mamumulong, ug tingali maoy nag-una isip namat-ang dila. Usa kini sa mga pinulongang Binisaya nga naglakip sa Hiligaynon, Waray, Akeanon, Minasbate, Kinaray-a ug uban pa. Ang ngalan sa Sinugboanong Binisaya naggikan sa pulo sa Sugbo, diin ang maong pinulongan giingon unang gitabi sa wala pa kini mokuyanap sa ubang dapit sa mga pulo sa Kabisay-an ug sa Mindanao. Ang maong pinulongan mao ang lingua franca sa Sugbo, Negros Oriental, Bohol, Siquijor, Camiguin, kasadpang Leyte, habagatang Masbate, ug daghang dapit sa Mindanao. Ang Sinugboanong Binisaya daghang mga dayalekto. Ning maong video, atong gipakita ang maong pinulongan nga gitabi sa Dakbayan sa Sugbo. Paminawa ang lumad nga pinulongan sa Harang Dakbayan sa Kasadpan!
