With help of this site and Google translate, trying to understand conversations is the first step to getting to know the language.
What I experienced so far is that for a lot of words there are totaly different meanings, usualy asking friends and even them sometimes doubt, then i'm even more schocked how difficult this is hehe
This one, for example... gives different results
i try my best bisaya, someone ask me if im in the city, i reply "Cge Cge' to reply affirmative, then they reply "Aw hahah ali balai" Ali can have different meanings, so I'm a bit confused... but thinkign it's an invite , right?
"ali balai" ali=dali
"ali balai" ali=dali ngari(come here), balai/balay=house/home...which means come here in our house or im at home come over here.
