Cebuano Deictics

 Deixis is reference by means of an expression whose interpretation is relative to the (usually) extralinguistic context of the utterance, such as

• who is speaking
• the time or place of speaking
• the gestures of the speaker, or
• the current location in the discourse

 Note: John U. Wolff (Beginning Cebuano: Part 1) labeled the deitics as present, past & future for the existential, locative & imperative.
