hello, ferotex. i hope you won't be too busy so you can come back soon.
No offence meant but I really admire this man simply because he loves and cares for Bohol specially those handicapped. Yes he is extraordinary and I feel like he is more than a Boholano to me. May I know if you happened to know personally this man? Forgive me but I do not know who are the ordinary ones and the rest of the mere mortals you are referring to.
and no offense was taken, honest. all i wanted to know was some kind of definition of terms. "more than a boholano" struck me as multi-tiered, that's why. no, i'm sorry i do not know this guy personally, though i'm sure that he must feel at home in bohol, and that's already something. as for the mere mortals that you're not familiar with, they must be the rest of the boholanos that you may have compared this guy to. the phrase "more than..." impresses me that there exist others who are "less than".
If you love and care for Bohol, i can also admire you to be more than a Boholano.
i do love and care for bohol, and if you admire me for that and confer me the honor of being "more than a boholano", then you must mean that there are boholanos who do not love and care for bohol, and are thus "less than boholanos". am i getting you now?
Dagohoy is not more than a Boholano. He is a hero!
so a boholano hero ceases to be a boholano because he has become a hero?
Gov. Chatto is not only more than but your governor.
and being governor, thus, he is beyond being "more than a boholano"? henceforth, a governor ceases to be more than a boholano because he has become governor?
Do you consider Tarsiers as Boholano?
well, for as long as they are in bohol and boholanos won't deny the fact that they are in bohol, tarsiers couldn't possibly be called cebuanos.
Synonym can be one who loves and care for Bohol in deeds and in words.
thus there could exist hundreds and thousands of synonyms for "more than a boholano". lorenzo is one among a myriad. he is an amboy who gushes over bohol, in word and deed. i hope to have truly understood you this time.
