  • Hiligaynon: “I caused- you -to-grow like a plant in the field. You grew-up and became a young-lady. Your breasts became-full/big and your hair grew, but you were still naked.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “It was as though I caused you to grow up, like plants in the field grow; you grew up and became tall and became like a very beautiful jewel. It was as though your breasts formed/became large, and your hair became long, although you were still naked.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
