"Wiwian" is a word in HILIGAYNON
wiwián - The corner (corners) of the
mouth. (cf. wiítwiitán).
x, The letter "X” is not needed in Visayan.
It occurs in foreign words that have been
incorporated in the Visayan language, but
even in these words the tendency is to write
"ks” instead of "x”, e.g. ekstraordináryo for
extraordinario, ekstremaunsyón for
extremaunción, eksámen for examen.
y, The letter "Y” in Visayan, as in English,
is sometimes a consonant, sometimes a
vowel. In both cases it is pronounced as in
English. As a vowel "Y” forms diphtongs
with a, o, u, e.g. in the words "may”,
"ngóyngoy,” "púypuy”.
A child is born into a world of phenomena all equal in their power to enslave.
