"Lanaw" is a word in HILIGAYNON, CEBUANO
lánaw = danaw, dánaw.
lánaw - To observe well, watch, scrutinize,
be on the look-out, keep one’s eye on, keep
in sight or view. Ang salagiáwan
nagalánaw sang mga pisô. The hawk is on
the look-out for chickens. Lanáwa ang
lampitáw. Keep a watch on the spy. Ang
kaáway nagalánaw sang áton mga
mangangawáy. The enemy is closely
observing our soldiers. (cf. lántaw,
panílag, bántay).
Persons curious in chronology may, if they like, work out from what they already know of the Wimsey family that the action of the book takes place in 1935; but if they do, they must not be querulously indignant because the King's Jubilee is not mentioned, or because I have arranged the weather and the moon's changes to suit my own fancy. For, however realistic the background, the novelist's only native country is Cloud-Cuckooland, where they do but jest, poison in jest: no offence in the world.
