"dangal" meaning in Tagalog

See dangal in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /daˈŋal/ [Standard-Tagalog], [d̪ɐˈŋal] [Standard-Tagalog] Forms: dangál [canonical], ᜇᜅᜎ᜔ [Baybayin], dang̃al [alternative], rangal [alternative]
Rhymes: -al Etymology: Unknown. Possibly borrowed from Malay dengar (“to hear; to listen”), from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *dəŋəʀ, from Proto-Austronesian *dəŋəʀ, following the phonological adaptation pattern of Malay /r/ to Tagalog /l/. (cf. banal and kambal) Furthermore, Zorc (1982) cited similar semantic shifts in inherited Visayan cognates like Aklanon, Cebuano and Hiligaynon dungog (“hearing; fame; honor”). The term may be a possible doublet of of the inherited dinig which also came from Proto-Austronesian *dəŋəʀ. Compare Sambali and Kapampangan dangal, which share the same meaning and may also possibly be Malay loanwords.
