kabayuan

• cabaiyoan — obsolete, Spanish-based spelling
• kabaiyoan, kabaiyuan — obsolete
• kabayoan — obsolete

Possibly related to Kapampangan kababayuan (“very recent; very fresh”), from Kapampangan bayu (“new”).

According to Panganiban (1973), the word came from kabayo +‎ -an. Old marriage customs called for a wedding train of horseback riders led by the bride and groom, returning from the church ceremony in town to the barrio home. However, the use of glottal stop is unexplained as kabayo does not end with a glottal stop.
