Etymology

@TagaSanPedroAko I think "black boy" is either a mistype or error on part of KWF. Afaik, all other sources say "blackball", and its change to "bulakbol" makes sense from "blackball", and the meaning makes sense. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 05:43, 19 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Restored it, and also in the Bisaya, Bikol, Hiligaynon, Ilocano and Waray entries. Not sure if the terms in those languages are likely borrowings from Tagalog, but I'll assume it's the case. TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 05:52, 19 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
