Bagong (Amorphophallus sp.) -- the Famous Root Crop of San Roque, Northern Samar

On October 23, 2010, I wrote a short article on Socyberty.com about a popular root crop in my hometown. The title of that post was Amorphophallus paeniifolius: A Famous Christmas Delicacy in San Roque, Northern Samar, Philippines



The write-up disappeared around 2015 when Triond.com and all of its affiliate sites, including Socyberty, suddenly became inaccessible. Triond, by the way, was a revenue-sharing platform where writers published articles on the internet.

Tagalog and Waray Sentences

Here is a list of Tagalog sentences with their Waray translation. Just below the series of sentences, there is also a list of Waray sentences with their Tagalog equivalent. 

These are based on the comments left by readers from various blog posts on this site. We usually provide a Northern Samar equivalent if the terms are different from the usual/standard Waray. The sentence after the slash is the Northern Samar translation. We will try our best to include as many sentences as possible. You may leave in the comments section below the Tagalog sentences -- or the Waray sentences -- that you would like to be translated. For longer files or documents, you may contact this blog's admin.

And to all the anonymous commenters who are helping us translate for the readers: Salamat ha/sa iyo ngatanan! 💖
