Bisaya Learning
If you plan on living in the Philippines, it might be a good idea to learn some of the language where you will live. If you will be living in the Central or Southern parts of the country, especially in the Visayas or Mindanao regions, you might want or need to learn how to speak some Bisaya.
Learning even a little bit of the language of your locale will help show some respect for the area and the customs of the people. In my experience, when you learn a bit of the language and use it when speaking with the local people. they will treat you better, in a more friendly way. You will also find that the more you learn, the more you will enjoy your life in the Philippines.
Currently I am offering a number of Bisaya learning materials, including Flash Cards and Audio Vocabulary lessons in MP3 format. Living in Davao City on the Island of Mindanao, I personally can speak Bisaya, and through my knowledge of the language, I want to help you learn too!

Hi , your flash card audio can be received on my laptop? I have the usual Realplayer (I think) , and video playback system. Thanks
Hi Ron – Thanks for your inquiry! The flash cards use a program called JMemorize, which is a free download. The Audio lessons are MP3 files which will play fine in any audio program, including RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, or virtually any other program that will play music and such.
After paying, you can immediately download the Audio or the Flashcard files!
Thank you again!
Hi Bob,
Do the flash card words coincide with the audio words so I can use them together for spelling and pronunciation? The audio is really great and a wonderful buy.

Hi Dave – I’m glad that you found the audio lessons to be useful! Yes, the flashcards and audios do coincide with each other, and will work hand in hand!
Hi Bob,
I downloaded flash cards 1-10 and only received 1-9. Maybe I goofed it up?? I downloaded flash cards 11-20 with no problem. Also , I downloaded the audio vocab. 1-10; no problem , really great, and necessary for me. Do you have audio vocab. that I can download for lessons 11-20?
Dave L.
Hi Dave – Thank you for your purchases. Actually, or lessons 1-10, lesson 10 is a review of all the combined words from 1-9.
Right now, I don’t have an audio lesson for 11-20, but I will come out with one soon, and I will let you know when it is available.
Hi Bob,
I know that you said lesson 10 on the flash cards is a review of lessons 1-9 but I again purchased flash card lessons 1-10 and still only received lessons 1-9. I am short flash card lesson # 10.
In addition, on audio lesson # 10, I don’t find any of these words contained in flash card lessons 1-9. I really wish to obtain flash card # 10 to go with my audio lesson # 10.
Thanks in advance,
Dave L.
Hi Dave, I am sorry for any hassle on the lesson 10 flashcards. I have just e-mailed you a file containing all lessons 1-10.
Dear Bob,
Don’t you ever sleep? I’ts the middle of the night over there. When we visit in 2011 (Jan1- June1) I will bring you a clock so you can know what time it is.
Yes, this download fixed me right up. Now I am 100% and I thank you much. When you finish the audio for flash cards 11-20, consider it sold.
God bless,
Dave L.
Hi Dave – You are right! I could not sleep last night!
