Overview

The Central Bikol language Wikipedia has an article about the Philippine national flag, which states «_nasyunal na wayaway[1] o bandera_» and [1] is «de Lisboa, Marcos: Uayauay. Vocabulario de la Lengua Bicol, Establicimiento Tipografico del Colegio de Santo Tomas, Manila (1865), p. 414». Does this mean that "wayaway" means "flag" in general, and that "bandera" means only "national flag" (="nasyunal na wayaway"), or even the national flag of the Philippines?
