Let’s learn Bisaya one mealtime word at a time!
It’s September, and this month on the BINIsay-a Series, we’re learning eating essentials — simple Bisaya words your kids can hear and use every day during mealtime.
Why this theme? Because food time is the perfect time to practice language! These are words that come up again and again — so they’re easy to remember and fun to use at home.
This Month’s Focus: Eating Essentials
Here are the Bisaya words we’ll be practicing for the next 4 weeks:
✅ Tinidor
Meaning: Fork
💡 Example: Palihug kuhaa ang tinidor. (Please get the fork.)
✅ Plato
Meaning: Plate
💡 Example: Usa ka plato para ni Mama. (One plate for Mama.)
✅ Baso
Meaning: Cup
💡 Example: Mangayo ko ug baso. (Can I have a cup?)
✅ Kutsara
Meaning: Spoon
💡 Example: Ibutang ang kutsara. (Put the spoon down.)

Each week this month, I’ll be posting a short Instagram reel showing each word, how to say it, and an example sentence you can use with your kids.
