Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to analyze selected and translated Hiligaynon short stories. Content analysis was used to determine the theme and social issues such as social status, social problems, and behavior. This study utilized an anthology of translation of original ten Hiligaynon short stories translated in Filipino and English with the help of evaluators who specialize in the field. The evaluation of the researcher and experts were coded, themed and triangulated. The researcher identified that among the themes were political, family, social life, faith, belief, and love. The stories identified the social status of the majority and the increasing rise of the rich. It turns out that the social problems are political, family, financial, justice for the poor, faith, economic programs, medical and educational. The behaviors captured in the stories are human effort despite adversity, being brave to help, stabilization for children, adaptation, love, understanding, and forgiveness to loved ones. Based on the study's results, it was concluded that the Hiligaynon short stories are packed with political themes, morals, friendship, principles or beliefs, family, and economics. Also, lifestyle, faith, love, rich culture, social status, and social problems are part of the daily life of every citizen were also embedded. Thus, ten selected Hiligaynon short stories focus on the lives of local Ilonggo. The results have great potential as instructional and references materials in English and Filipino Courses. The lack of materials using localization and contextualization is some common problems in Filipino and English subjects; this concept is employed in Indigenous Knowledge (IK).
