English / Cebuano / Spanish Dictionary

This dictionary pairs English, Cebuano and Spanish terms. Over 19,500 terms are included. Cebuano is named after the island of Cebu, where the prestige register is spoken, and is also known as Bisaya, Binisaya, Binisaya nga Sugbuanon or Sinugbuanon. Cebuano speakers are known as Cebuano in Cebu, as Bol-anon in Bohol, as Kana in Leyte, and as Binisaga or Bisaya in Mindanao and Luzon. Cebuano has been strongly influenced by Spanish and, since World War II, by English. It is common now for speakers of Cebuano to switch languages in the middle of sentences. Many of the words in the Cebuano section reflect English terms.
