Ebook: English-Bisaya Grammar. In Twenty Eight Lessons

(время и место издания неизвестны) — 140 p.In presenting this English-Bisaya Grammar I do not pretend to be considered an
author, my only aspiration is to be useful to my Américan brethren in the
priesthood, in order that they in turn, may be so to the Bisaya people. The priest
for the Bisaya people must be one who will devote all his attention to them, live
among them, study their ways, their character, their tendencies, and therefore, the
study of their dialect is absolutely necessary to him, since they, for the most part,
do not know how to speak either Spanish or English. In preparing this compilation
I have used every effort to do it as well as possible, but I am only a pupil in both
the English and Bisaya languages, and I believe, the work is not as perfect as
would be desired, but I indulge a hope that the kindness of my readers will excuse
my faults.
