Ma'yong aga! Recently, my thesis partner, Demi Alegre posted about our thesis survey in this group, and we've received lots of respondents compared to our daily count. Today, I'm posting our survey again to reach more respondents from Negrenses since we're still short on our quota! I am Alliah Ala, we are 5th year architecture students from the Lyceum of the Philippines University - Cavite. We are currently taking up our thesis with a working title "𝐀 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱 𝐨𝐟 𝐍𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐬 𝐎𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥."

Yes, we are not from Negros Occidental but from Cavite. We saw the deep potential of Negros Occidental as the prospect province for our proposal, and so are Negrenses input for the betterment of our study!

All my life, growing up in negros occidental, i thought iloilo and negros hiligaynon were very similar with each other. Now that i lived here in iloilo for the past 6 months i noticed na there are a lot of differences between our dialects. Like people here use "mayad" which is non existent in negros, the tones are much mellow and there are some words that i dont understand which might be "dalom" for us.

For people here in panay, how does our dialect sound to you?

Hi guys. May suggestions kamo kung ano nami e research sa culture o wika sng Ilonggo? Truly appreciate it kung may ara thank you gid!

Ano inyo mabatyagan kung may alog nga gatuon sang Hiligaynon?

Kumusta mo? I'm looking for a funny Ilonggo video from a few years ago where the guy translates different phrases to just "te", "to", or "ta" 😆 dason sigi nalang sya kakadlaw bag-o magpadayon sa next nga translation .Nakalipat na gid ko kon sa TikTok, IG, o YouTube iyang gin-post..

Kon makita ninyo ini, appreciated gid kon maka-link mo sa akon di! 🙏🏽

Ti, sin o gusto maskwela di?

Is anyone interested in joining? It'll most likely be on TG

Been to both cities but can't really tell the subtle differences in the words being used.

Can someone please translate “indi gid ma pyaran” I think it’s Ilonggo/Bisaya

I'm bisaya and gusto ko matuto ng ilonggo or hiligaynon, pwede magbigay ng examples ng ilonggo sentences or phrases? (With tagalog or english translation pls 🙏)

I've been to both cities and if I could, I would visit atleast once a year (para magrenew). I'm just curious on how both cities/citizens' view about each other. Correct me if I'm wrong but is there some sort of superiority complex over the other?

I also saw a video on youtube where the speaker said that he wasn't speaking Ilonggo but rather Hiligaynon because he was from Bacolod. Aren't people from Iloilo not hiligaynon? What are differences from the two?

In addition, I found that Bacolodnons have a more "singing" accent than in Iloilo.

Fun fact: SOCSKSARGEN or Region 12 mainly comprises of Hiligaynon speakers. Of its four provinces, only Sarangani is dominated by Bisayas. South Cotabato and Sultan Kudarat mainly speaks Hiligaynon while in Cotabato (formerly known as North Cotabato) 8/18 municipalities use Hiligaynon as their main language. In Cotabato Province,there are at least 3 municipalities that have a Barangay New Panay: Pigcawayan, Aleosan and Tulunan. Fun fact: Aleosan comes from the three towns of Panay: Alimodian, Leon and San Mateo.

I myself am an Ilonggo residing in Cotabato City but my father was from San Enrique, Iloilo though he was not part of the Great Migration. He just happened to be an ex military who was stationed here and settled for good. I was never fluent in Ilonggo however because he spoke to us in Tagalog until I went to school at Koronadal City, South Cotabato. Now I'm working and stationed at Pigcawayan, Cotabato which is also an Ilonggo dominated town. I must say that the accent from Koronadal City and here are somewhat different. The intonation here is somehow less musical(?), somewhat neutral for the lack of term.

Last year I got the chance to visit Iloilo and Bacolod. I was really excited then to hear how real Hiligaynons/Ilonggos sounded like and to my surprise it isn't any different than in Koronadal. Bacolod however, was more "malambing" to the point that my girlfriend who is from a town in Cotabato found it exaggerated although her accent and her townsfolk are just like what I said, leaning towards "neutral".

Upon browsing this subreddit, I was somewhat baffled that most Ilonggos don't know that damo kita paryenti di. It's kinda feels amazing to think that when we spoke to Ilonggos from Iloilo and Hiligaynons from Bacolod, they just assumed that we were locals from the Iloilo region. Lol
