The Waray people are Bisaya.
Bisaya commonly refers to the Cebuano language. Bisaya, however, technically can refer to any people who's first language is a language belonging to the Visayan language family. The Visayan language family does not only refer to languages that are geographically Visayan, but those languages that evolved out of the proto-Visayan language: the ancient language from which Cebuano, Waray, Hiligaynon, Karay-a, Tausug and many other languages evolved. The same way the Romance languages of French, Romanian, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian evolved out of Latin. There are Visayan languages spoken in areas that are not Visayan: Tausug is a native language of Mindanao and is not spoken in the Visayas; Sorsoganon and Masbateño are spoken in the Bikol region only. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.34.115.11 (talk) 14:56, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
