EN: Mayor (archaic)
The OG 'Yorme'. Bago pa nauso ang 'mayor', 'alkaide' na ang tawag sa kanila. Sounds more formal and a bit historical, like someone from a Jose Rizal novel. Today, you'd probably only hear this from your lola or in a history class.
From Spanish 'alcalde' (mayor).
Primarily an archaic term for 'mayor.' In some contexts, it can also mean 'warden.' The modern and common term is 'mayor' or 'punong-bayan.'
