"Takyan" is a word in CEBUANO
takyan n {1} toy which is similar to a shuttlecock in badminton and kicked with the instep of the foot.
{2} game played with this shuttlecock which involves kicking it with the instep of the foot.
A server is chosen by kicking the takyan a required number of times without missing.
The one who misses is the server.
The other player (or team) has to kick the takyan when it is served.
If the server catches it, he serves the next player, and so forth, until all the players have been served, at which point the game starts again.
If he fails to catch it he must serve the same player again.
If he is able to return the takyan kicking it, the person whom he returned it to must take his place.

{2} [A2; a12] kick as one would a takyan.
[Tolstoy] does not necessarily get rid of [his angry] temperament by undergoing religious conversion, and indeed it is obvious that the illusion of having been reborn may allow one's native vices to flourish more freely than ever, though perhaps in subtler forms.

A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces his altitude and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts: "Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"The man below says: "Yes, you're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field.""You must work in Technical Support," says the balloonist."I do," replies the man. "How did you know?""Well" says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but completely useless."The man below says: "You must be in management.""I am," replies the balloonist, "but how did you know?""Well", says the man, "you don't know where you are, or where you're going, but you expect me to be able to help. You're still in the same position you were before we met, but now it's my fault."
