    Gwapa Kaayo

    If you really want to surpise her, there is a word in "deep bisaya" it's something like Matahom or Matahon. It means something like "a treat for the eyes" but it's proper deep bisaya, and it'll make you sound like a genuine Fil!

    Yeh, so Visaya. It's a good language to learn, especially if you're spending time in the Visayas or certain places in Mindanao! I wish there were more tutorials in the language :)
