Abstract:

This study aimed at developing Ibanag Orthography of the Ibanag-speaking communities in the provinces of Isabela and Cagayan in Region 02, Philippines. Results validated the existing and established rules on the Ibanag structure. However, no normative manual or grammar is to be considered as a law valid for every speaker of Ibanag language. It’s the political or cultural dominance which in practice can solve the language problems. Thus, the support of authoritative persons, organizations, institutions and language experts in the development of an appropriate Ibanag Orthography is a most favourable factor in establishing a writing system of the spoken language.
