BISDAK: Learn To Speak Cebuano Overnight: A No-Frills Approach to Learning Cebuano (Visayan) Dialect
This book is born from the desire to get the learner, and absolutely anyone else who has no background of the Cebuano language to speaking and understanding the core spoken Cebuano aka Visayan dialect in no time. 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'.
