Visayan languages and Philippine languages in general are often refered to by Filipino people as dialects.
For instance, a Cebuano of Chinese or Spanish ancestry may call himself Bisaya because his mother tongue, Cebuano, is a Visayan language.
This probably stems from the inadequacy of English and Tagalog, the two languages with official status in the Philippines, to translate Bisaya and Binisaya accurately.
