How similar is the Ilonggo Dialect to Cebuano/Bol-anon?

I can understand for the most part what is said (60-70%) but there are some words that are very different.

For example:

When I like something or find a particular dish delicious, I say "Lami", but my beloved, who is Ilongga, will say "Namit".

Do you guys understand Ilonggo ? Can you speak it ?

I am currently trying to learn the basics of Ilonggo. Pero I would like to buy a book that can guide me; is there a book that teaches the basics of this dialect?

Advanced Thanks.

Waay man ko pormal nga eskwela sena, basta bal-an ko lang ara gid na sa akon nga dila mong. Kay kadto nga bata pa ko, sa Mindanao interesado man ko mag-estudyo sena tapos damo pa mga Ilonggo sa banwa namon. Maskin gali ara na ko dire sa US subong, tapos man waay gid ako mga Ilonggo nga amiga amo pa man gihapon, waay man gid nawala sa akon. Lantaw ko gani kung ako makahambal man sang dialect, te nga-a nga indi gid ako maka-hambal sang Chinese te amo man na lenguahe sa akon Lola maskin ano pang obra nakon.

I dont have formal study, I just know that my tongue got it. When I was young in Mindanao, I was interested to study plus there are so many Ilongos in our town, Even I am in the US now, and I have no Ilongo friend, it is still the same. The way I look at it, if I can speak other dialects, why I cant speak Chinese when that is the language of  my Granny no matter how I worked on it.[/color]

wow! For the most part I could understand what you said, there are some changes in words per say "Sang" (ilonggo) is similar to "Ang" (Cebuano).

When I hear Ilonggos talk they end phrases with "ha" or "han". Cute sounding baya.

 Bag-o pa ko diri da Davao. Mibista bitaw ko akong silingan nga Hilonggo. Gi-agda ko ug panahaw."Kaon anay".
Wala gihapon ko mokaon. Giagda ko ug utro. "Kaon ta bla". Wala gihapon ko moduol. Giutro pa jud ko ug agda. "Kaon ta e".

Mikanaog na lang ko sa silong ug mipauli. "Pakaonon man diay ko ninyo ug tae."

Indication of existence is somewhat similar, but there is a difference:


English: I have a dog

Cebuano/Bolanon: Naa koy iro

Ilonggo: May ido ko

~~

There is also an observable difference in interrogative words.

Cebuano/Bolanon: Taga asa man diay ka?

Ilonggo: Taga diin ka?

However, despite the slight difference, it is quite easy for a Cebuano to understand their manner of speech 60-70% of the time. Tho I will concede to the fact that sentence formation is a bit harder for me in regards to Ilonggo. Their manner of tone is also different; their tongue is very light when talking and after almost every statement there is an obervable colloquial "ha".

I tried comparing to the way some Bolanons (Valencianons and Garcia-Hernandez) add the "An" to every statement or phrase.
