Members of the Akademiyang Bisaya would definitely disagree to this practice. Most of these English words have a Cebuano equivalent. The Cebuano language is very abundant of words. Almost every word in the English dictionary can be translated. Not all English words in the Cebuano News should be translated just to make it appear it’s a Cebuano. We listed here some collective nouns that are already plural in meaning but singular in form. Collective noun is one of the oddities in the English language. It is also true in Cebuano.
