I found this while I was looking up Ibaloi words and I was so surprised! I never knew anyone was making Igorot let alone Ibaloi games. What a lovely game, reminds me that I need to practice my Ibaloi haha. Iyaman! :-)
Thanks for playing! :D I'm glad you liked it (I need to practice as well, haha!)
Iyaman!
Thanks for making this! It reminded me that I want to not forget my Nepali ( the language of Nepal). I learnt it as a kid and I forgot it as an adult and had to relearn it. That was a few years ago and I'm inspired to practice again.
Thank you for playing! (Or as my mother would say, salamat dya pasya!) Nepali is a lovely language, and I'm glad my little game was able to inspire you :) Wishing you all the best with practice.
