GUAM - Carabao in Umatac

I was wondering what is Carabao means until I check with google.  It was actually Kerbau in my language (Malay). The spelling might be different but the sound is the same. Kerbau was introduce to Philippines by Malay immigrants and since Guam is near Philippines they adopt the word. Thanks to Vee for the card!.


"The carabao is a swamp type domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) found in the Philippines. Water buffaloes were probably introduced to the Philippines by Malay immigrants around 300 to 200 BC."
