I wonder where Tagalog "ILOG" came... I'm trying to connect it to other Austronesian words for river, but it's elusive...has it something to do with "Iwahig"...both begins with "I"and wahig and Ilog is water or river.

@@rodenreyes6320 , "wahig" in Malay is "bah", with the "ig" deleted, its meaning is related to the overflow of water in a river, the closest and almost similar pronunciation to "wah", to distinguish and isolate (Separatist Network) . "Loji" in Malay means related to storage or water storage/tank (loji air), related to the Tagalog "wahig" and "Ilog". Further research is needed on functional and linguistic unification as well as global or international unification of languages ​​similar to Mandarin and English or larger empires. Segregated networks like the Republic of Singapore are replaced by English and Mandarin, a global presence that values ​​education and economic creation. So, do further research and improvise for a better journey of unity or separation, replacing all ancestors with peaceful solutions instead of war (self-destruction).

Waig in Ilocano means stream. Old Tagalog “Wahig”

@@romliahmadabdulnadzir1607 Maybe i-log is Air-loj. Water storage?

@@rodenreyes6320 The word ILOG clearly came from another different word I guess, though it might not be impossible that it's related to WAHIG or any other words for river. Because ILOG is not the only one word for river in Tagalog language. There are "suba", "sapa", "pilapil" and many more.

We use mata for eyes Tenga for ears Kutu or kuto for lice Inom for drink In Tagalog I see the similar sounding names from your language. Greetings fom Philippines

@@dianaverano7878 "Tainga" or "taynga" is the formal word for ear.

"Inu" in Malay is "m-inu-m" and drink in English.

"Ruma" in Malay is "rumah" and in English is "house." "Utu" in Malay is "K-utu" and lice in English.

The -kan in makan is derived from the Proto-Austronesian Kaən. similar to Javanese, their word for eat is Mangan but the root word is Pangan ←pang + kan. Kuman ( kan + -um- infix ) in Minahasa languages Kaan/ Mongaan in Mongondow language.

Is this standard Malagasy or one of the other major "Dialects" of Malagasy? If you don't mind me asking.

@@ANTSEMUT1 "mino" is used especially in western and southern Madagascar, but not by the Merina people, whereas "ako" or "aako" is used by the Merina people. In official Malagasy it is "aho"

@@randriaH ooooh ok, I've noticed that at least the southern dialect especially holds on to more archaic vocabulary and by extension more recognisable austronesian cognates.

in malay language drink is "minum"

@@ANTSEMUT1 Maybe that's true. They are believed to have come to Madagascar before the Merina.

i just read minutes ago that indigo plant in tagalog is tayum.

there's a place near manil which literally means, river of rock, or lake of rock. it's called lawang bato. and idk why it was called that way.

@@esperanzacorazon9686 when I heard “lawang bato,” I think about “stone gate” 🤣

I have wondered about this a long time, I did think maybe ‘Ci’ is a prefix considering how common it is and the way it’s used.

@@esperanzacorazon9686 this sounds like rawa batu which means swamp of rock

we are also connected genetically, we have similar dna's.

That's so cool. I love how Austronesian languages make compound words: sigwasan = isig (force) +‎ lawas (body) +‎ -an (locational/reciprocal affix (?)).

It is related to fluid mechanics, which in large part provides its theoretical foundation. Hydraulics deals with such matters as the flow of liquids in pipes, rivers, and channels and their confinement by dams and tanks. Some of its principles apply also to gases, usually in cases in which variations in density are relatively small. Consequently, the scope of hydraulics extends to such mechanical devices as fans and gas turbines and to pneumatic control systems.

Ranu means lake in javanese.

Rano means water in Minahasan!

In Yapese (Micronesia) water is Ræn, and to drink is Unum. I think it’s funny that when we say to drink water, we’re basically saying water water-if my understanding of the video is correct. 😂

"pasig" in Malay is "pasir" meaning sand in English.

"wahig or vahig" removing ig and in Malay is "bah" and is related to overflow of water from the river. Interesting Malay in a very strong connection if further research. However, we also feature alikes and mostly look alike Obama USA, Joko indon, Marcos filipina etc globally.

Thank you! I've read about this before, it makes sense. Also, thanks for the recommendation!

@@languagestolearn8155 anytime, buddy

In Old Javanese: • Water = wway, wwe, we • Lake/ pond = ranu The word "water" is pronounced almost the same as the word "day". Day in Old Javanese is wai/ we. But they are came from different words: • Water = *waHiR > wai/ wway > we • Day = *waRi > wai > we

@@user-cj4ws7mk3w It's amazing..! As a Javanese myself, I just realized that "we" really means "water" as well in Javanese. That's why, in Java we call "hot drink" as "wedang". It comes from words "we = water" and "dang = boil/steam" Thanks so much! 👍

@@user-cj4ws7mk3w it reminds me of Ranu Kumbolo! Now this is very interesting

@@1nadjmi1 Yes, ranu means lake/ pond, but in Old Javanese lakes also called "talaga" (tlaga/ telaga in Modern Javanese), derived from Sanskrit word "taḍaka"

Javanese. Udan = rain Malay = hujan = rain 😱

Interesting how your sea/ocean is Wai. In Yapese (just north of PNG in Micronesia) the sea/ocean is Dāy.

@@JTLI90 The so called Melanesia and Micronesia are just one big family spread across the pacific ocean with ancient ties and relationships.🙏

@@EsUzasi Micronesia is basically populated by descendants of the original people (ancestors of most Melanesians) and the settlers (Austronesians). The only exception are the CHamoru of the Mariana Islands, who have no Melanesian blood (but closely related to the first Austronesians of SEA). We are all siblings, but Melanesians are the eldest.

Similar with Bahasa Sug as well

Specifically, this must be Pasig River, because civilization grew around other rivers in Philippines but they were not called "TAGA-ILOG". Tagalog region people may have dispersed around Manila/Pasig River area.

"rano" in Madagascar

In my language Ranau = paddy field.

In the philippines, Danao and Ranao refers to lakes or ponds in Maguindanao, Maranao and Cebuano. Fairly related to danum and ranau.

@@catayloprince4772 well, we said danau for the lake in Indonesian.

Bahaa Indonesia doesn't exist. it's just Malay, you just don't wanna called it that way. Ranau literally mean the same thing in Malay so it's not exclusively Indonesia

So from ‘Wahig’ it got shortened to ‘Ig’. Willing to learn Maranao and Maguindanao here. I’m very interested to the heavy influence of hindubuddhism to the ethnolinguisitc groups in Mindanao before Islam came.

Interesting. My language as the folowing; Water = Vaig Lake = Botung River = Bavang Wet = Ozopos Tinum oku vaig = i want to drink water.

​@@sumaranggg well, sometime w and h assimilated to the following vocal as these are semivowels.

Hence the Tagalog word IGIB. Meaning to gather or fill a bucket with water.

Still wondering why Tagalog uses the word "tubig" instead of "wai", "ai" or "air" like other austronesian languages.

@@Emsyaz i wish I know the answer. I guess Tagalogs created their own word for water. But the " ako" to " aku" in malay and Inom and " minum" is similar 😊

2 opinions. "TUBIG" may have come from "tubir"(cliff) because of clean water from spring from a high source... "TUBIG", from VAIG, WAIG, WAI, VAI,etc...sort of like (TU)VAIG...

@@rodenreyes6320 cool. Its nice to see how words are derived

​@@Emsyaz"ig" is the only cognate we have😂.... tubig, wahig, waig, wai..

In Javanese.. I drink water = aku ngombe banyu. Ranu means small lake..big lake is danau. Mataku in my language means my eyes. Bird is manuk.

In Chamorro I drink water: Hu gimen hånom Bird: Paluma Chicken: Månnok

Javanese mataku eyes. In Fijian my eyes matanngu or mataku depending on which dialect you speak. Mataku my eyes, matamu your eyes, matana his/her eyes, matadra their eyes.

The same with Indonesian “Aku minum air” mean I drink water. “Danau” means lake, “Takut” means fear. And in Javanese “manuk” is bird.

In Tagalog, Laot means sea. Timog = South, North is Hilaga East is Silangan West is Kanluran

In old Tagalog, the word for northwest is "balaklaot" (spelled as "balaclaot" in Spanish-era dictionaries). But nowadays we only use "hilagang kanluran" (lit. north west). Other obsolete terms for directions in Tagalog are "salatan" for southwest and "sabalas/sablas" for northeast.

Interesting that you had "balaklaot" back then. Is it a cognate? Or is it a borrowing?

@@mochardiansah7452 likely a rewording for Balik Laot...meaning returning to the sea. Laot is also archaic word for sea. In Ilocano it means both the sea and the west since the Language is spoken in Northwestern Luzon.

@@khust2993 i would love to know more about obsolete tagalog. can you share some more? better, can you share me your sources?

Tukad is used for river in Balinese, eg Tukad Badung. Toya means water in Balinese and Javanese, which a loanword from Sanskrit.

big flood in Sundanese is "caah", the consonant b in Malay becoming c in Sundanese, like "beringin" becomes "caringin" (Banyan Tree), in Old Sundanese, trunk is "catang" (Malay: batang).

no Cai is not cognate with cair, because there is no word for liquid (Adj.) in proto austronesian, and when i see to wiktionary cair related term is air which could mean that cair itself come from the word air (though idk), other than that there is other sundanese word that has "c/nc" in the word where it would otherwise be "b/w" in malay, Sanca=sawa, Catang=Batang, Ca'ah=Bah

and *DaNum doesn't have the same as *inum because they are a different consonant

In Samoan, "Lano" is a lake

👍 Danau/Dano = lake Ranu = small lake...

Danau Kota is a place in Malaysia

Don't forget tasik.

in balinese danu mean lake. interestingly in height balinese tasik mean salt.

Malay used two words to describe large pool of natural water. Danau or Tasik.

damn maphilindo literally one country we also say 'uang' in indonesia but it means money

Nuang in ilocano means buffalo or carabao Udang is freshwater shrimp Pasayan is the brookewater shrimp Kappi is freshwater crab Umang is the shellcrab/hermit Arimbuken is seacrab

yeah, the author did say in one of his videos that in many austronesian groups, unlike in the western languages, the verb is mentioned first in the sentence instead of the subject.

Yes. Why is that? I mean most of Philippine Languages are VSO or Modifier first too. When did Modern Malay diverged from VSO?

Heavy influences from Arabic?

old Sundanese are VSO too

@@catayloprince4772 VSO is quite confusing to be honest

Austroasiatic influence. There are a number of Malay words that are inline with Khmer.

Hello from Malaysia

I think "pu u" is similar to "fo" in Malagasy, meaning "heart"

In Ilocano heart means "pusu" also in kapampangan

Puso in my opinion cognates with "pucuk" in Malay (c~s interchange) But the semantic meaning is different. In Balinese the banana heart is called as "pusuh". Pusuh also means "young fruit/bud". Tipat pusuh means a rice cake wrapped with coconut leaves in "pusuh" form (like banana heart).

Irrelevant in kapampangan language Pu' is common in many words like pu’tlaq - pale pu’rus - always pu’guq - quail

@@GameplayTubeYT the cognate prolly took on a different sound, and not “pu, po, fo”. As an austronesian language, perhaps the cognate exists in kapampangnan under different changes.

Manobos in the Philippines call it 'wahig', also in Maguindanaon it's 'ig'.

In Kadazan also say: vaig is closed to Rungus language
