EN: to announce publicly; to proclaim
Before group chats and Facebook announcements, this was how you got the word out. A town crier, or `bandilyo`, would walk around shouting the mayor's new ordinance. "Hoy, hoy, hoy! Bawal magtapon ng basura dito!" That's `ibando`. It’s a public broadcast, old-school style.
From Spanish *bando* (edict, proclamation).
A bit formal and dated, but still understood. Often associated with official government or town announcements.
🇵🇭 Ipinag-utos ng kapitan na ibando sa buong barangay ang bagong patakaran.
🇺🇸 The captain ordered to proclaim the new rule throughout the entire barangay.
🇵🇭 Kailangan nating ibando na may pagpupulong mamayang gabi.
🇺🇸 We need to announce publicly that there is a meeting tonight.
