Ilocano

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Ultimately from Proto-Philippine *alagad. Compare Cebuano alagad (to rely on). Unlike in Tagalog and other Philippine languages, where alagad means follower, disciple, or servant, the Ilocano word means what is followed, model, guide, pattern, or standard. As a root word, variations can mean regulation, constitution, design, or to follow rules or plans, where the verb is similar to the ones in Tagalog and other Philippine languages (e.g., pagalagaden, umalagad, alagaden).
