From the looks of the words posted its a dialect of Bisayan very close to Cebuano in the same way Manc or Scouse are derivatives of English

My ex teaches Cebuano very well although strangely its your English grammar which will need brushing up on first in order to study and understand the rules

If your serious let me know and I will give contact details

Thank you, Keith. I'm still undergoing treatment these days but can still do classes online.

Waray is one of the eight major languages in the Philippines. It is one of the Visayan languages and is also called Visayan (Waray Visayan) just as Cebuano is called Cebuano Visayan.
