Visayan Academy of Arts and Letters

The Visayan Academy of Arts and Letters (Cebuano: Akademyang Bisaya)) is a Philippine language regulator whose aims are to preserve and to develop the Cebuano language. In 2009, Akademiyang Bisaya published the first edition of The English-Visayan-Cebuano Dictionary, which took ten years to complete in consultation with other organizations, to standardize Cebuano orthography, grammar, and syntax.
