Diglots in the Philippine Context | Scripture Engagement

Author: Kermit Titrud

Then I asked them if they would prefer a diglot … even if the cost were double. They all answered yes.

Titrud presents substantial reasons why the Caluyanun New Testament of the Philippines was published as a diglot with a language of wider communication, Tagalog, and how the publication has been received. He encourages fellow Bible translators to consider the option of publishing Scriptures for minority language groups in a diglot form, believing the Caluyanun situation is not unique.
