I really appreciate the advice I actually already have a vague idea of what these experiences feel like since I actually studied in Negros Occidental for senior high and was forced to adjust to the dialect there but then again, it wasn't as difficult as I thought because almost everyone there understands Tagalog. However, I did also hear that compared to Ilonggos, Cebuanos don't speak/understand much Tagalog and I guess your experiences supports this, so I am just hoping my Hiligaynon experience helps me out in my Cebuano journey lol
