- jan — Internet slang, text messaging
- riyan — dialectal, Rizal, after words ending with vowels, ⟨w⟩, or ⟨y⟩ (in standard Tagalog)
Etymology[edit]
The latter half of the word is possibly iyan. See also dito, doon, niyan, nito, niyon/noon, and other Tagalog demonstrative pronouns. Compare Bikol Central diyan, Pangasinan ditan, and Western Bukidnon Manobo diyan. Meanwhile, the former half is possibly related to Malay di and Indonesian di as a likely cognate.
Pronunciation[edit]
- (Standard Tagalog) IPA(key): /diˈan/, [ˈd͡ʒan]
- (dialectal)
- Rhymes: -an, (dialectal) -ian
- Syllabification: di‧yan
Adverb[edit]
diyán (Baybayin spelling ᜇᜒᜌᜈ᜔)
- there (far from the speaker, but near the person addressed)
Usage notes[edit]
- When the preceding word ends with a vowel, ⟨w⟩, or ⟨y⟩, riyan is used instead, but is not often used in conversation. Other words with this phenomenon include dito, doon, daw, and din.
