Note 373 — PRIMO VIAGGIO INTORNO AL MONDO (continued 3)
James Alexander Robertson translation
Tinapay (used also by the Bicols to denote any kind of bread) denotes a kind of cake or loaf made with flour and baked about the size of a chocolate-cup saucer. Two of these are put together before baking with some sugar between. The word is extended also to wheat bread and to the hosts. See Encarnación’s Diccionario.
