areas. This territory, of course, includes the
enclave of the Iranon whose language is closely
related to Maguindanaon. Great care has been
taken to avoid the inclusion of Iranon words in
this dictionary. in such a large geographic area, it
would be expected that several dialects of the
language would occur. These have been
accounted for, as much as possible, by giving
alternate entries for pronunciation and word
meanings. In most cases, the variant

residents of Datu Piang, Maguindanao Province

have been made that the dictionary be
acceptable to the people of other localities and
dialects, as well. Therefore, reviewers have been
invited to examine the work, and their
recommendations have been seriously taken into
account in the final draft of the dictionary. The

Dr. Benjamin Gulo has been most helpful in

checking the accuracy of medical terminology.
We are most grateful for their help and interest in
this work.

This dictionary is an out-growth of an

ROTC-CIVAC project in the summer of 1972.
Among the first workers were Malumpil Balawag,
Omar Kamid and Nur Baraguir. At the beginning
of the following school year, only Mr. Balawag
continued with the project. He was joined later by
Mr. Abdul Puntuan.

The collection of words of the

Maguindanaon-English section was almost
completed and was in the final stages of review
when the Intensity VIII earthquake struck
Cotabato City on August 17, 1976, and
destroyed all the materials. Mr. Balawag and Mr.
Puntuan began the work again with the added
help of Mr. Alano T. Kadil, Mr. Abdullah Abo and
Mr Lawani Udasan. Mr. Zozimo Pasaol was our
typist. At the time of its conclusion, the staff of
the dictionary included: Mr. Laman Piang: Mr.
Samakong T. Kusain; Mr. Tapa B. Umal; Mr.
Dilawanen Piang: Mr. Kalyas M. Ilon; Mr. Sabide
A. Abas with Mr. Alano T. Kadil as group leader
and Mrs. Rosita L. Espere as our typist.

We are indebted to many others: Mr. Joe Allison

of the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL) for
valuable suggestions and guidance and Mr. Eric
Fleischman, also of SIL, who made the very
valuable contribution to this dictionary on the
formulation of the Maguindanon verbs. We are
 WIKA AT WIKAIN SA PILIPINAS CSSH-ABFIL

grateful to Mr. Fleischman for his scholarship and

generosity. The dictionary was entered into a
DEC computer at SIL's southern workshop
center and was formatted and printed out using
programs developed by them for Philippine
language dictionaries. We are indebted to Mr.
Ronald Moe of SIL for providing this service and
for writing the article on verb roots. We also
express our thanks for a grant-in-aid from the
office of the Regional Commissioner, Simeon A.
Datumanong.

The Maguindanao language is part of a

subgroup of languages called the "Danao
languages." The subgroup includes Maranao,

spoken in the Lanao provinces; Ilanun (also

Ilanum or Iranun), spoken by a group of
sea-based people between Lanao and
Maguindanao; and Maguindanao, mainly spoken
in Maguindanao, Cotabato, and Sultan Kudarat
(McFarland 1983: 96).

History

In the early 15th century, Sharif Muhammad

Kabungsuan, an Arab-Malay preacher from the
royal house of Malacca, arrived in what is now
Malabang, introduced Islamic faith and customs,
settled down with a local princess, and founded a
sultanate whose capital was Cotabato. The other
center of power in the area, Buayan, has an
even longer history dating back to early Arab
missionaries, who, although not able to implant
the Islamic faith, introduced a more sophisticated
form of political system. In Buayan, the transition
to Islam took a longer time (Ileto 1971:3).

Spanish chronicles reveal that Buayan, and not

Cotabato, was the most important settlement in
Mindanao at that time. In 1579 an expedition
sent by Gov Francisco de Sande failed to
conquer Maguindanao. In 1596 the Spanish
government gave Capt Rodriguez de Figueroa
the sole right to colonize Mindanao. He met
defeat in Buayan, and later, was killed in an
ambush by a Buhahayen named Ubal. His forces
retreated to an anchorage near Zamboanga
(Angeles 1974:27-28; Ileto - 1971:4).

The rise of the Maguindanao-Cotabato power

 WIKA AT WIKAIN SA PILIPINAS CSSH-ABFIL

came after the defeat of Datu Sirongan of

Buayan in 1606. From 1607 to 1635, new military
alliances were formed, this time with Cotabato.
By the 1630s Cotabato had become a coastal
power (Ileto 1971:5). In the early 17th century,
the largest alliance composed of the
Maguindanao, Maranao, Tausug, and other
Muslim groups was formed by Sultan Kudarat or
Cachel Corralat of Maguindanao, whose domain
extended from the Davao Gulf to Dapitan on the
Zamboanga peninsula. Several expeditions sent
by the Spanish authorities suffered defeat. In
1635 Capt Juan de Chaves occupied
Zamboanga and erected a fort. This led to the
defeat of Kudarat's feared admiral, Datu Tagal,
who had raided pueblos in the Visayas. In 1637
Gov Gen Hurtado de Corcuera personally led an
expedition against Kudarat, and triumphed over
his forces at Lamitan and Ilian. Spanish
presence was withdrawn in 1663, providing an
opportunity for Kudarat to re-consolidate his
forces. From 1663 to 1718, Maguindanao
influence extended as far as Zambales in the
west, Cagayan de Oro in the north, Sarangani in
the south, and Davao in the east. In 1719 the
Spaniards re-established control with the building
of the strategic Fort Pilar in Zamboanga (Miravite
1976:40; Angeles 1974:28; Darangen
1980:42-45).

The 1730s saw the weakening of the

Maguindanao sultanate, as it struggled with civil
war and internal disunity. Spanish help was
sought by the besieged rajah mudah (crown
prince), further destroying the prestige of the
 WIKA AT WIKAIN SA PILIPINAS CSSH-ABFIL

sultanate. Thus, Cotabato power became

increasingly dependent on Spanish support (Ileto

other books in and about the language have
been published since then.

This is one of those tongues not much known,
and in which scarcely any manuscripts exist,
save a few poorly kept notebooks which serve
the Moros of these districts to transmit among
 WIKA AT WIKAIN SA PILIPINAS CSSH-ABFIL

themselves the usages and customs of the

dialect. Such notebooks are generally written in a
brief style, after the manner of letters which pass
between them, in both of which much rudeness
prevails, and which are written with no little work
or difficulty.

The scarcity of writings in this tongue, and the

incorrectness of those that exist, make it difficult
and almost impossible to compose a gratnmar
which shall be full and perfect. Grammar being
the conjunction of rules for proper speaking, it
will be seen that it is not easy to obtain these
rules by listening to the natives, as each one
pronounces, more or less, after his own
inclination.

Time and constancy, with observation and

experience of some years as to the mode of
expressing Moro ideas, has made it pos sible to
use the rules put down in this grammar. The
Malay language, somewhat like the Visayan and
Moro, both of which recognize it as a mother
tongue, has aided me in the preparation of this
book.

We have confidence in God that this treatise will

serve to facilitate the study of the Moro tongue
for our brother mission aries whom Divine
Providence has destined to follow this work, and
for others who may come to these lands who
wish to learn it: and it will also serve the purpose
of permitting the natives to learn the beautiful
language of Castilla.

I do not believe, as I have said before, that my

work will be perfect; even imperfect it will be of
some use, and may be the means of prompting
someone to perfect it, or to do better than I have
done.

On the last pages of this book will be found a

vocabulary of Spanish, Moro, and Malay, which
demonstrates the relations existing between
Malay and Moro, also between Moro and the
other tongues and dialects of the Philippines.
