"Gaab" is a word in HILIGAYNON, CEBUANO
gáab - To low, bellow, moo (of cattle); to
weep, cry, blubber. Ginagaában sang báka
ang íya nga tínday nga naíhaw. The cow
is lowing mournfully for her calf that was
slaughtered. A, iníng bátà dáyon gid lang
nagagáab. Why, this baby is constantly
crying. Indì mo akó paggaában kon
mamatáy akó. Don’t weep for me when I
die. Pagaába ang bátà, agúd makabatî
ang íya nga íloy kag magpaúlì sa madalî.
Make the baby cry so that its mother may
hear it and come home at once. Pagaába
lang ang bátà túbtub kon sán-o matápus
ang íya hilibíon. Just let the baby have its
cry out. Hípus ka lang, índì ka maggáab.
Be quiet, don’t cry. Anó na man ang
ginagáab—or—ginagaában mo? What are
you weeping for this time? (cf. hibî, tángis,
hibubún-ot; gáab is properly used in
connection with an animal, and the word
sounds rather rough and impolite when
used in connection with a human being,
though colloquially it is often employed).
gáab = agaab.
Science is essentially an anarchic enterprise: theoretical anarchism is more humanitarian and more likely to encourage progress than its law-and-order alternatives.
