"Bisaya" meaning in Cebuano

See Bisaya in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /biˈsajaʔ/, [bɪˈs̪a.jʌʔ]
Etymology: Unknown. Possibly related to Sanskrit विषय (viṣaya, “kingdom; dominion; region; territory; domain; realm”), according to Potet (2016). Compare Sabah Bisaya Bisaya, Brunei Bisaya Bisaya, Tatana Bisaya, Khmer វិស័យ (visay), Thai วิสัย (wí-sǎi), Pali visaya. Other theories include: * From Malay Sri Vijaya (“Sri Vijaya”), from Sanskrit श्री विजय (śrī vijayá). During the 1950s to the 1960s, various authors have claimed that Bisaya is derived from Sri Vijaya, claiming the early settlers of Panay were either from Sri Vijaya or subjects of Sri Vijaya. However, linguist Eugene Verstraelen refutes these claims by pointing out that Vijaya would have been "Bidaya" or "Biraya". Compare Malay bisai. * From Sanskrit वैश्य (vaíśya) which would have been what Indian traders and/or pirates might have described the settlers of Panay.

  "etymology_text": "Unknown. Possibly related to Sanskrit विषय (viṣaya, “kingdom; dominion; region; territory; domain; realm”), according to Potet (2016). Compare Sabah Bisaya Bisaya, Brunei Bisaya Bisaya, Tatana Bisaya, Khmer វិស័យ (visay), Thai วิสัย (wí-sǎi), Pali visaya. Other theories include:\n* From Malay Sri Vijaya (“Sri Vijaya”), from Sanskrit श्री विजय (śrī vijayá). During the 1950s to the 1960s, various authors have claimed that Bisaya is derived from Sri Vijaya, claiming the early settlers of Panay were either from Sri Vijaya or subjects of Sri Vijaya. However, linguist Eugene Verstraelen refutes these claims by pointing out that Vijaya would have been \"Bidaya\" or \"Biraya\". Compare Malay bisai.\n* From Sanskrit वैश्य (vaíśya) which would have been what Indian traders and/or pirates might have described the settlers of Panay.",
