Hi! Welcome to another short Cebuano lesson.
Today I will speak more Cebuano.
We’ll look at a short dialog using everything you’ve learned so far.
Mag-recap ta kadiyot.
Nakahibalo na ka: Maayong buntag. Ako si Sven. Kumusta ka? Maayo ko.
Karon, mag-Cebuano ta. Pamati ug ayo.
Here is the dialog:
Ako si Sven. Maayong buntag!
Maayong buntag! Kumusta ka?
Maayo ko. Ikaw?
Maayo pud ko.
Sabton nato ang dialog.
Ako si Sven means “I am Sven.”
Maayong buntag means “Good morning.”
Kumusta ka? means “How are you?”
Maayo ko means “I’m good.”
Ikaw? means “And you?”
Maayo pud ko means “I’m good too.”
Karon, buhaton nato pag-usab. Pamati ug sunduga.
Ako si Sven. Maayong buntag!
Maayong buntag! Kumusta ka?
Maayo ko. Ikaw?
Maayo pud ko.
Repeat this dialog now with your own name.
Great job.
If you understand this dialog, you can already greet people and start simple conversations in Cebuano.
That’s today’s lesson. More coming soon.
Kita ta!
