What is mayaman in chavacano?

"Mayaman" in Chavacano is simply "mayaman".

Chavacano is a Spanish-based creole language spoken in the Philippines. It borrows heavily from Spanish vocabulary, so many words are directly translated.

Here's how it works:

* Mayaman is the Tagalog word for "rich" or "wealthy".

* Chavacano speakers often adopt Tagalog words into their language, and "mayaman" is one of them.

Therefore, when you're speaking Chavacano, you can use "mayaman" to mean "rich" or "wealthy" just like you would in Tagalog.
