Just wondering why you chose this spelling and not "wikantao" or "wikang tao". Mar vin kaiser (talk) 13:49, 15 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

The other examples (see link), wikan Español and wikan Bisaya clearly wants to say wikang instead. I patterned the spelling over current orthography compounds seen in diksiyonaryo.ph (like bukang-bibig instead of bukambibig). Also retained the hyphen because wika and tao combined changed to a new meaning and not "human language". Ysrael214 (talk) 02:05, 16 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
