Feel the pain of emperor's mace

If your six dice have the same number and it's emperor's mace, the damage of each hit is 750 physical damage. It's the highest damage in Frieren's dice game.

Wrong word oder or wrong syntax

The Cebuano members in our group chat in Messenger said that the syntax or word order of the news headline is correct. It was only revised because the people in the comment section are complaining. Don't they have a common sense that the word order is obviously wrong? They will not revise it if it's already correct.

What's really the right spelling, tuman ka dako or tuman kadako?

Our Cebuano members in Hiligaynon group chat in Messenger are arguing with me that the "ka" is a prefix, not a separate word in the phrase "tuman ka dako". In my own understanding ka is a connector between tuman and ka, not a prefix.

Also I noticed that kadako (size, bigness) and ka dako (very big, how big) are distinct in pronunciation. Ka dako has emphasis while kadako doesn't.

What's your thought about this my fellow Ilonggos? Which is the correct spelling, tuman ka dako or tuman kadako?

Misnomer scientific name

Rufous-crowned bee-eater is really endemic in the Philippines despite that its scientific name is Merops americanus.

I struggle everytime pronoucing their names

In Hiligaynon phonology, e is the final positional allophone of i. I sound occurs in the initial syllable while e sound occurs in the final syllable of the word that's why for me it's hard to pronounce their names.

Classical crossover new entry

Last May 31, I posted about Kpop classical crossover then the next day Meovv release their new song "Ddi Ro Ri". It sounds familiar because it uses sampling from the song "Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565" by by Johann Sebastian Bach.

The moderators removed my original post. I don't know why they removed my post. Is it against the rule to post the link of the song?

The people and their language have different names

I'm a native Hiligaynon speaker but our people who speak the language are called Ilonggo. Here's the explanation why our language is called as Hiligaynon and our people are called as Ilonggo.

During the Spanish colonial era Ilonggo was the endonym used by the native people of Iloilo to refer to themselves and their language while Yligueynes was the exonym used by the Spaniards to refer these people and their language. It's from Iliganon, that means "people from downstream". Yligueynes latter became Hiligaynon. Karay-a people use the exonym Sinâ to refer to Hiligaynon language.

Nowadays, linguistically Ilonggo refers to our people while Hiligaynon refers to our language that's why the people and their language have different names.

Ilonggo is used as both for ethnolinguistic group and demonym. As an ethnolinguistic group, it refers to the Hiligaynon speakers regardless where they live. As a demonym, it refers to the people from Iloilo, regardless what language they speak so a Kinaray-a speaker can be considered as Ilonggo in this context.

Do you know other languages that the people have different name? Example, the language of Romans is called as Latin.

Another song with instrumental chorus by Izna

Has anyone noticed that the song Metronome by Izna has instrumental chorus. Their previous two songs iWALY and Racecar have also instrumental chorus.

The first Kpop song that I know with instrumental chorus is Fever by GFriend.

Convergent evolution but in linguistics

In French lawyer and avocado have the same word even though they have different origin. Lawyer in French is avocat (fem. avocate). It came from Latin advocare that means to call or to voice. Avocado in French is also avocat. It came from Nahuatl āhuacatl via Spanish aguacate.

I speak Hiligaynon, we use the Spanish loan word abogado for lawyer. We don't use the Spanish word aguacate, we use the Spanish loan word abokado for avocado.

Is the word advocate in English can be used instead of lawyer?
