Summary | "English-Bisaya Grammar, in Twenty Eight Lessons" by Pedro Jiménez is a linguistic guide written in the early 20th century. This work serves as an instructional tool for English speakers, particularly Americans, to learn the Bisaya language, providing a structured approach to understanding its grammar through various lessons. The book emphasizes essential grammar rules and elements, such as articles, nouns, verbs, and adjectives, aiming at fostering effective communication with the Bisaya-speaking population. The opening of this grammar book provides insights into its purpose and methodology, establishing a foundational understanding of the Bisaya language. The preface outlines the author's intent to aid American priests working with the Bisaya community by teaching them the dialect, as many locals may not speak either Spanish or English. Subsequent sections introduce the Bisaya alphabet and the basic structure of articles, highlighting how nouns and their forms are organized. This introductory portion sets the stage for the lessons that follow, which systematically cover various grammatical aspects, encouraging readers to engage with the language progressively.
