Virac

It has been said that Virac is a derivation of the word “Vidak” while others claim it is a contraction of the Spanish version of the word burac , meaning flower. A priest is on a quest for more information about the natives. Pointing to a tree, he asked what it was called and the natives replied, “Burac.” Thereupon, the priest made his first notation on his book of information “burac”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virac,_Catanduanes
