Gusto ko nang halimbawa sa salitang Panay.
Yes, I like an example for the usage of the word Panay.
And also, is it possible to add Paki, for Please, in my Philippino-sentence-try above ?
Thanks guys for any answer

I am assuming that by “Panay” you meant the word and not the place. Panay is one of the large islands in the Philippines and “Ilonggo” is the most common local language there. “Salitang Panay” may be understood as a Panay word/language, just like “salitang Tagalog” means “a Tagalog word/language”.
 
The word “panáy” generally means “constant” and in that sense can be used to mean “continuous” or “very often” or “all or almost all”. It may be used as an adjective or an adverb.
 
Panáy ang ulán kahapon. = It was raining continuously yesterday.
Panáy ang iyák ng bata kanina. = The child was crying incessantly earlier today.
 
Panáy ang tingín sa iyo ni Mary. = Mary keeps on looking at you.
Panáy ang puntá ni John sa mall. = John goes to the mall very often.
 
Panáy (mga) babae ang (mga) kaibigan ni Tom. = Tom’s friends are all/almost all women.
Panáy gulay lang ang puwede kong kainin ngayón. = All I can eat now are just vegetables.
 
In the last two examples, we also use “puro” (purely) in place of “panay”.
 
To be able to use “paki”, you need a verb that can be used in the imperative to go with it. “Gusto ko NG halimbawa NG salitang “panay” (I would like an example of the word “panay”) only has the verb “gusto” (would like), but as is, it can’t be used in the imperative. To be able to use “paki” you need to restate your sentence as something like this:
 
Gusto kong PAKIBIGYÁN ninyó ako ng halimbawa ng salitáng “panáy”. = I would like you TO PLEASE GIVE me an example of the word “panay”. (Corrected. Earlier post did not have the "ng" between "halimbawa" and "salitang".)
 
The more natural and polite way to ask your question though, would be like this:
 
Puwede ba ninyó akóng bigyán ng halimbawa ng paggamit ng salitáng "panáy"? = Can you give me an example on the usage of the word "panay"?

BTW, in the last sentence I gave, you may also use "pakibigyan" in place of "bigyan". It would add the "please" meaning to the sentence. However, by using "ninyo", which also gives a respectful sound to the sentence, it can already give the "please" sense to it.

@Luvhagen Sorry, I missed a "ng" in my first comment. Please see correction on 3rd paragraph from the end. Thanks!
