Hi, Ovela. I've been writing in a Filipino-language based publication for two years. Almost every word in English does have a Filipino translation. The matter that is concerning is just that Filipinos rather find it easier to use certain words in English rather than in their local language.
what do you mean? provincial languages like bisaya/hiligaynon has 40-60% spanish in them, and Tagalog has 30-40% spanish in it, so basically speaking we do speak with a mix of spanish loan words.
Lahat mayroon hindi lang naituro dahil para sa atin mas madali magsalita ng Tagalish.. pag makilala mo teacher ko sa Filipino D xa nagsasalita ng ingles May mga word xa na dko maintindihan..
@@rassalas4638 tama pre ako nga cebuano kaya ko nmn magsalita ng walang ingles mapa tagalog man o bisaya Kadalasan sa nagsasalita ng taglish yung mga taong gustong maipakita na magaling sila mag ingles pero ayun sa guro ko nuon Speaking taglish doesnt make you sound good and fluent in english at all. It will only sound good if you're able to finish the whole sentence without mixing tagalog into your english sentence.
@@heylove8543 totoo naman? may nakita ka ng janitor na nag tataglish? vendor? taga manila ka no? hahaha masyado kang affected sa comment ko napapaghalataan ka lmaoo
My father can't speak tagalog.but he is fluent in English . Because we are visaya . And me , my language also is mix , Japanese, Tagalog, visaya , English. But I'm not fluent in English . I'd rather speaks Japanese than English 😂😂😂

I remember I was in Grade six and High school when our Teacher said we need to speak English because our subject is English when you speak Tagalog there is a fee of five pesos. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Regarding with "F" and "P" or Filipino vs Pilipino, Filipino is the current and most updated term to refer both the language and the people. In 1940s if I am not mistaken, "Tagalog" the most popular dialect in Luzon had been the basis for calling the Language and the People of the Philippines, and "F" is not part of their alphabets. Moreover, before, scholars gave argued that "F" is a borrowed letter and not nationalistic. However further studies have shown that "F" is not borrowed as Ifugao tribe of Luzon and B'laan tribe of Mindanao have F in their local dialects. So the Commission assigned to flourish Filipino language have change PILIPINO to FILIPINO to address other ethnic groups in the country. As FILIPINO language now is defined as the National Language of the Philippines that is based in Tagalog and flourished continuosly (as it is dynamic) from the other languages and dialects the country have. 😉
Pilipino is the language and Filipino is Nationality, this is true when you are filling up forms for a work abroad. you do fill-up the questions; what is your Nationality? - Filipino and what is your Language? - Pilipino
@Noah Smith It is not about making things complicated. It is about stating facts. I understand the Filipino for English and Pilipino for Tagalog as it is what people believe is right. But it is actually not. Please do some research, not solely in Google but in books. Thanks.
It is even stated in our constitution... Section 6, Article XIV of the 1987 Constitution that specifies Filipino as the national language also states: “As it evolves, it shall be further developed and enriched on the basis of existing Philippine and other languages.” This emphasizes that enrichment through existing Philippine languages. We should also not call Philippines language as Tagalog because it is not Tagalog at all, it is just the basis.
Pilipino subjects is taught in school curriculum, there is no such subject in school curriculum as Filipino. "Pilipino" is the combination of all the dialects we Filipino speaks.
True, kagaya ko bisaya, pro ngaung adult nako saka ko narealize na may mga spanish word pala kaming ginagamit like Espejo, vamonos, uno dos tres, cuatro, cingco...... natutunan lng namin sa mga kalolohan kalolaha, na ang akala ko nun bisaya words mga yan, spanish pala.
This is another misconception in Filipino language. Filipino language is composed of Katutubong Wika (Indigenous Languages), Different Languages and Dialects spoken in the Philippines, and Loan words. So therefore Tagalog is not equal to Filipino. People would think that Tagalog is Filipino.
Yes. Tagalog is not the national language. Filipino is. Tagalog is the main language upon which Filipino is built upon. The Filipino alphabet is comprised of the English alphabet plus "ng" and "ñ".
@@jesssc402 That is precisely because Tagalog is the core language. If Cebuano was the primary tongue then it would follow that Cebuano would be dominant in Filipino. It would be impractical to evenly spread out our vocabulary and grammar to accomodate all 170 languages spoken by Philippine ethnic groups. The inclusion of words to enrich Filipino vocabulary will come naturally from local and foreign sources as we communicate with each other.
filipino language is a super set , tagalog is just a subset, they just used tagalog in this video because they're in manila, you don't expect malineños to speak in cebuano right??, they didn't said tagalog is the whole filipino language🙄🙄🙄 anywhere in the vid 🙄🙄
This information I got came from my professor when I was studying in college. The correct TAGLISH way is that when you're speaking like multiple sentences or paragraph, you should be saying or talking an entire sentence with either english or tagalog, and you're just allowed to switch language whenever you finish a specific sentence. For example: Tagalog: ANG PANGALAN KO AY MARCO. NAKATIRA AKO SA PILIPINAS. English: MY NAME IS MARCO. I LIVE IN THE PHILIPPINES. Taglish: 1. ANG PANGALAN KO AY MARCO. I LIVE IN THE PHILIPPINES 2. MY NAME IS MARCO. NAKATIRA AKO SA PILIPINAS. Note: Mixing both Tagalog and English in just one sentence is not TAGLISH and seems to be a wrong way of using it. Wrong: 1. NAKATIRA AKO IN THE PHILIPPINES. 2. ANG PANGALAN KO IS MARCO. PS. This is just an opinionated comment and not based on google, etc. HAHAAHHA Dont judge. 😂
7:24 yes, you're correct ovelaa, and we called it "Hiram na salita" borrowed word... Because if we tend to translate it in Filipino it will sound hilarious ☺️ And anyways Tagalog is not our national language it's Filipino, before it is called Pilipino which is clearly based on Tagalog but lots of law makers argue about that. That our national language must also include/adapt other dialects such sa bisaya, hiligaynon because as we all know Philippines is a multicultural country that will also make it a multilingual ,due to the geographic aspect..so in the Year 1935 not sure from Pilipino our national language was change into Filipino (a modern and includes other languages/dialect in the country but still mostly Tagalog) Furthermore, Tagalog is the language of the people living mostly at the northern part of the Philippines or luzon areas, and it is way deeper and more difficult than our national language Filipino. To all the Pinoys reading this if your confuse the difference is: example instead of pisara(blackboard) in Filipino it is "blakbord", instead of "yeso"(chalk) it is called "tsuk" hahaha yes, and it is also a great example of Hiram na salita (borrowed words), you should write the word according on how you pronounce it in English or whatever language it originate(etc.) ,There are changes Lang sa pagbaybay(spelling) using Alpabetong Filipino (take note, not also every word applicable in this technique☺️)
MANILA, Philippines - Seventy-five years ago today, President Manuel L. Quezon addressed the nation in Filipino via radio. It was the first time that a President spoke on air using Filipino, which was declared the Philippines' national language by virtue of Executive Order No. 134 issued on December 30, 1937.
Gino Abelido Bisaya and Hiligaynon are not dialects. They are languages including other languages (Bicol, Waray, Pampanga, Tausug, etc.) in the rest of the country. A dialect is a variant of a language distinguished by features of vovabulary, grammar and pronounciation.
About the statement that Filipino's way of thinking that if someone's speaking in English they have or he/she has a higher standard of living, rather it just their first impression😊😊 Enjoyed watching this reaction😍😍from Philippines
11:05 i agree what he said! Bcause Most of the people said that if you're, a good in english people think that you are smart because not all Filipinos can speak fluent in English. Thats for me
10:55 I'm not agree on what he stated on his interview. Speaking English doesn't mean your level on social status is more higher than non english speakers, speaking English language can help you in different ways but it doesn't mean you are higher to those who only speaks tagalog.
11:20 Even me sir I don't like that perception either but I can't help it but to agree to him . Some Filipinos were downgraded by others because they cannot speak english fluently , most of them believed that when you don't speak english you only knew basic things in your life.
Out of all ppl they'd interviewed, they asked these kids... On behalf of millions of us living in the province, our language is definitely not "dying" as per se, it's just manileños just love to mess up their language, downside of living in the city.
True. We in mindanao, we value our languange than english. Yes, we speak english in schools but when we are in our home or outside the school we use tagalog language than english. We value more our own language. But if there is a foreigner we intend to speak english rightfully.
nuh, kahit sa province, may english parin na nahahalo, lalo na yung mga term na "specially" actually" "majority" "before" after" more than" and many terminologies na comfortable na sa english sabihin. idagdag mo pa ang sana All.
Napakaganda ng iyong mga kumento Ovela. Napakahirap talagang magsalita ng purong tagalog kaya nararapat lamang ito ay ating pagyamanin. Sana ang mga susunod na henerasyon ay pagpahalagahan ang wikang tagalong. Salamat sa iyong reaksiyon. Mabuhay ka Ovela!
At 7:56, you are correct Ovela. I speak to my child in Tagalog all the time and taught her to call me “Nanay” (Tagalog term for Mommy or Mama). Most of The youth today are exposed to English language as early as infant. As a parent, I am guilty of that. Most parents sing English lullabyes to their child (guilty again), have them watch cartoons in English. When they are teaching their child the terms, for example, of animals or objects, it is usually in two languages -their mother tongue and in English. I also observed that most people lives in Metro Manila are the ones who speaks English or in Taglish more. And usually, if the family is from middle to upper class level, they do not speak much in Filipino. They converse in English. The only time that a child will learn Filipino is in school. So the struggle in the youth is real. We have so many dialects here and English language is used somewhat a middle ground if, for an example, a Tagalog went to Cebu and doesnt know to speak Bisaya dialect. It is saddening because SOME of my fellow Filipinos think that if we use English to speak and express ourselves, it is somewhat a measurement of a higher intelligence. But on the positive side if you go outside Metro Manila, the further you go the more the mother tongue prevails.
Hays to the "KAPAMILYA" thingy😄...personally, I find no problem over the word. There shouldn't be division feelers especially with what is going on around the world right now. We are all a FAMILY (KAPAMILYA🇵🇭) at a time right now.
True, I feel bad that Ovela feels that he needs to explain especially this very little thing. Man, We should look at a bigger picture and realize that the word Kapamilya doesn't just refer to the Channel but has a deeper meaning behind it.
That's exactly what i'm talking about with my friends in the Philippines! Here in France is the same thing there's a lot of word that some French people used that you think is French but it's not really, sometimes we have Morocan or Algerian words! (And of course English word too) [Je te suit depuis des année je me rend compte maintenant que tu viens du Quebec ;p] Sa fait plaisir de voir que tu apprécie tout ce qui tourne autour des Philippines (ou comme dirais nous les Français d'ici tout ce qui tourne autour du "Bled" XD!)
@13:59 try this: ginoo, nawa'y mawatasan mo ang mga katagang mamumutawi sa aking mga labi at ng sa gayon ay ito'y iyong pagnilaynilayan at gunam-gunamin ng maarok sa kaibutaran ng iyong puso at kapag daka'y iyong mapagtanto ang kabalintunuan ng aking tinuran. mana pa'y ang aking nawika ay hindi mahapdi sa iyong balintataw.
@11:03 that's correct, it's hard to admit but that's the truth, it was embedded in the mind of most of us Filipinos that when you speak English or taglish it kinda feels like you belong in the higher echelon of society.
11:02 the reason behind this perception COULD be..IMO... the way one speaks English (accent and proficiency) says a lot about the educational background (the kind of school attended) of that person which is in turn related to that person’s social status. But of course not everyone who could speak good English exclusively come from the more “expensive” schools and universities.
Tagalog is an Austronesian language belonging to the Malayo-Polynesian subfamily, with outside influences from Malay and Chinese, and later from both Spanish and American English through four centuries of colonial rule.
@5:59 most of us Filipinos were used to speak in TagLish (conyo), usually for those who lived in NCR (National Capital Region. aka Metro Manila) especially those in the exclusive subdivisions and those who are studying in Ateneo, La Salle, Poveda to them a few. they can't speak straight Tagalog , but you can find those people who can if you go to the rural areas(Nayon) of Rizal, Batangas, Laguna, Quezon, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, because it's their mother tongue and the Tagalog language they're using is unadulterated.
I think it depends on where you live, those students were mostly stayed in Manila and they'd adapted already to the way how people there in Manila speak.
This reaction was very interesting cause feel ashamed for us filipino's that were not as fluent as it is in speaking Tagalog easier for us in "taglish"( Tagalog & English)
Have you heard about “Chavacano”? It’s a Spanish Creole spoken in the Philippines. That would be interesting to see you reacting to people speaking Chavacano.
Hi Ovela, there is one person that i admire the most in speaking Tagalog. It's propesor Randy David of the University of the Philippines. He has a t.v. program before, the forum it's like a debate. And in the end of the program he will give his opinion or view on the debated matter. In pure Tagalog and it's like listening to the music when he speaks in pure and some are deep tagalog. I really missed his program.
Misconception tagalog is not our national language. Tagalog was just used as "batayan" of our national language which is the Filipino that compose of all the languages, dialect and hiram na salita which we used.
There is no divorce but there are the annulment and legal separation, the use of either is appropriate depending on the specific situation. If, from the very start a pre-condition or pre-conditions for a legal wedding was not met, annulment is applicable. If the reason for the desired separations occurred during the married life, the legal separation is used.
Hi Ovela! I am a Filipina mom of two teenagers here in the Philippines and I tell you, I always scold my kids how come they struggle with their Filipino subject and doing great in English. I feel sad that there are basically basic Filipino words that they don't know the meaning of. Our language is really very beautiful and rich, especially when used in poetry. Let me give you a few examples of Tagalog translations of one english word 😎 Beautiiful - maganda, marilag, mayumi love - pagmamahal, pag-ibig see - makita, masilayan So as a parent, it will be my responsibility to help them embrace and be equipped, right?
We actually had a debate about divorce in our classroom here in the Philippines and it opened up so many topics for us to touch on. For me as a student who participated in this debate was very conflicted since we Filipinos are very religious and I think because of our religiousness divorce is not made legal. You can give a lot of reasons as to why you want to divorce that person, let it be good or bad. It's just our freedom of choice as a Filipino that is limited especially in divorce.
That's hard, Bruh! I can't complete a sentence without mixing Tagalog and English.... But you know what, our great great grand parents are more fluent in speaking in English coz during American era here in PH, Americans are their first teachers!
Aside from lost in translation, the english speaking countries got to the top first in terms of economic power therefore influencing the rest of the world and making english an international language. Besides, almost 60% of good paying-jobs in the Philippines are outsourced from the west making the english language an essential advantage to us applicants.
"Seguro" (spanish) means "sure" pero pwede rin pong gamitin sa Filipino "Siguro" (Filipino) means "maybe" 😌 PS. BSEd Filipino po yung course ko ☺️ skl.
That was a good vidclip you've chosen. I think there are topics which you can't discuss purely in Tagalog without using English words. But one can still converse purely in Tagalog especially if one lives in Manila area. Those who tend to mix up Taglish are those who weren't raised in a pure Tagalog environment like they grew up in neighboring provinces or they actually speak TAGLISH at home. I was born in Manila but now I live in Cebu, but whenever I meet a Tagalog-speaking fellow I can always speak in straight Tagalog. Perhaps, one's upbringing and environment matters in enhancing one's language skills. Or it also depends on one's preference though. Thanks for bringing up this interesting topic.
4:30 - because Philippines is a very religious country and most of the Filipinos are Catholic and we follows the rules of our religion because it is in the catholic bible, that's why divorce is not "yet" legal here in our country.
@10:49 P & F difference between Pilipino and Filipino. Truth is, “Pilipino” - the name of the language corresponding to “Pilipinas” - was rejected during the 1970s because like the abakada it carried a Tagalog memory. “Pilipino” was replaced with “Filipino” for the latter to symbolize the modern nationalistic . While My elementary teacher differentiate it as Filipino - our national language Pilipino - the citizens
Hi Ovela! In the Philippines, divorce is not the way to legally sever the marriage bonds between husband and wife, since there is no enabling law passed by our Congress. In our jurisdiction, there are 3 ways to legally sever the marriage ties, to wit: 1. Declaration of Absolute Nullity of Marriage. The only ground for this is psychological incapacity. Once decreed by court, either spouse is allowed to remarry and there is complete liquidation of assets; 2. Annulment. Under our Family Code, there are several grounds to annul marriage. Only those grounds enumerated in the law shall be invoked when filing a petition for annulment in court. Like the first one, either spouse can likewise remarey once granted by the court, and there is complete liquidation of assets likewise; and 3. Legal separation. Unlike the first two, this one does not allow either spouse to remarry when granted by the court. This is only a separation "in bed" and not a separation "in fact". And like the No. 2, there are specific grounds where one can be legally separated from his/her spouse as sanctioned by the court. As you can see, in the Philippines, you cannot just simply have your marriage be declared null and void whenever you want to. There must be a valid ground. That is the difference between divorce and the 3 ways i cited above. With divorce, you can just simply go to court and get a decree nullifying your marriage without any valid reason. Under our law, we acknowledge the sanctity of marriage which forms the family, a basic unit of society recognized by our State as a social inviolable institution. Thus, any thing which threatens the foundation of a family is strictly dealt with by our law. Hope you will be enlightened by this. This is just to correct and a point of clarification when you say that husband and wife here in the Philippines can separate without any papers since there is no divorce. Again, there is no divorce here, but there are other ways, and even stricter because of the ones i explained above. 😊
Indeed! If someone speaks english here with a nice accent and can really converse in english with Americans or foreigners comfortably then people will see them as above average and respect them.
Personally, I was taught at an earlier age to speak English (however, my mother tongue is Cebuano, a Filipino dialect), because I was homeschooled with an American based curriculum. When I moved to a public school, that was when I started learning Filipino, and it was really hard for me because I was learning Filipino at the same time I was learning History in Filipino (It was traumatic, jk). Until now, I can say that I am more fluent in speaking in English rather than in Filipino, but I still could speak fluently in Cebuano without mixing English because almost all my friends speak mostly in Cebuano. Thanks for reading everything. Have a nice day! 😊
I think it is hard for the interviewees to speak 100% Filipino because they have to answer a question about legalizing divorse which is a sensitive issue for conservative Filipinos. I just notice that one of the interviewee spoke 100% Filipino when he became casual to the interviewer 12:04
I have difficulties, too, in speaking my national language. I do not just mix it with english at times but also with my native dialect. So sometimes, when I speak with my other friends that are in different province in the Philippines, our conversation becomes question and answer session. But I think I can fully talk or maybe 90% with my language (Filipino) because of maybe the experience I got from going to different provinces with different dialects, Filipino is our means of communication so I think it practiced me to speak well.
We use spanish too often use the Spanish numbers in buying or price So when the costumer says how much (in tagalog) We say for example Tres it means three right
Pilipino is the Language (mixture of philippine dialects) Filipino is the Nationality. This so when we are filling-up forms for a work abroad. to the Question of What is your Nationality? which is Filipino and What is your language? Which is Pilipino. Pilipino is taught in schools to enhance the philippine language
Hope this helps you. Annulment and divorce are two interrelated words about marriage, the former is an English word and what we have here in Ph. The difference is that, annulment nullify the marriage, like it declares the marriage invalid while divorce ends a marriage. However only few can afford annulment here that is why a lot of people want divorce to be legalized.
Among our public officials, Gov Chiz Escudero (prev senator, and hubby of tv personality/actress Heart Evangelista) is very articulate in speaking tagalog. So admirable whenever he talks in straight tagalog. LIkewise in english🤩
Yes Ovela. In Filipino subject, we were taught about “hiram na salita” (borrowed language/words). These are words without filipino translation :) so yes, we are allowed to use it when talking filipino :)
Hi Ovela, my dad being a world war 2 veteran can’t speak in Tagalog nor read Tagalog. If you speak to him he will always answer back in English, but we do have our native language (tribal language) and a local language aside from Tagalog
Yes,and that is a struggle for some Filipinos,fluency in speaking English language has a strong impact in communication and understanding in terms of tongue diversity
Bilang isang masugid na mambabasa at masusing pinag aralan ang iyong mga nakitang hadlang sa paggamit ng filipinong linguwahe..... Maraming pag babago ayun sa panahon at ang mga nakausap mo nabubuhay sa modernong panahon...

In our Filipino alphabet, we don't have F and V, but we have ñ and ng. That's the reason why older generations of Filipino have a hard time with their F and P also V and B. Especially those who lived in rural areas. Did you know that we have an ancient script and it's called Baybayin. It is a very cute script, try searching for it, you can see an inverted heart there.
Mabuti na lamang at kinalakhan kong magsalita at magsulat sa Filipino mula elementarya hanggang mataas na paaralan maging sa kolehiyo. (Gladly, I grew up speaking and writing in Filipino from elementary to high school and even in college.) For you to be able to speak Filipino fluently, join journalism. 💕
English is very important to Filipinos because it gave us advantage.We use english to be able to communicate to others.We use english in works/jobs/ or something like that.
haha I liked it... Me being a Filipino finds it really difficult to speak in Tagalog hehe... I used to speak English often... but i do practice speaking tagalog to my family and to anyone I talked to.
yes, im good in tagalog. although im working here in hongkong i use English but sometimes i use Korean because of my employer and sometimes Cantonese when i go to market plus i talking also ilonggo becouse i came from negros Occidental province.
Hi ovela..very true..we are bilingual being a filipina myself..hard to express most things in pure tagalog..find it comfortable if we combine both languages..😊❤️🇵🇭
This mostly happens in Metro Manila. But most people in the surrounding regions can still speak decent Tagalog, or their respective regional languages and use English words only when necessary, or if there's no direct translation.

I’ve been here In the USA since 1985 and It’s actually very difficult for me to speak one language in one sentence at home. This is because I speak VISAYAN, TAGALOG AND ENGLISH. I was born and raised In Mindanao...where we speak the VISAYAN / Cebuano dialect. Then I spent 8 years in Manila during college and got married to a Tagalog guy. Gave birth to 2 kids in Manila . Then came to the USA working as an RN,BSN. 😍

Here in the Philippines,if you can speak english fluently,you are considered by some Filipino people as "intelligent or bright"but in fact english speaking is not the measurement of being intelligent.
I just finished watching your Phillipine Anthem reaction. And it's really hard to use some Tagalog terms that have easy English translations. Like when you say "nagniningning" , it just meant "shine" in English.😂😂 But as a Filipino, the way I understand "nagniningning" is a type of a sincere and serious term while when you say "shine" it just sounds singing praises and flattering
Haha . I like your explanation about callong your filipino viewer kapamilya. . It has been a little since i subscribe. Congrtas you now have a lot of subscribers
Very important to take note : 1.) know that the the Philippines has more than 100 local dialects. And on some very particular areas or places with very strong accent and the F to P or P to F is part of the most difficult letters to say. 2. About being in a higher strata of society is just an impression derive from someone who has a wide range of vocabularies that proved that that person or that someone is a well read or very up to date on social media or what’s around.
Filipino law has no divorce proceedings.. Only anullment is legal here.. Its a bit more strict and complicated to process with all the legal papers and it takes a while.
My 8 year old son's first language is English. They were taught in school in this language but incorporating Filipino now because they have two tagalog subjects but the rest are english.
While absolute divorce in the Philippines is not legal, we have other modes of severing the marital tie such as annulment and declaration of nullity of marriage. The difference, however, is with respect to the grounds where you could avail these remedies. Divorce, I would say, is the most lenient of them all since you are not declaring a marriage void from the beginning or annulling a valid (voidable) marriage because of vices of consent, but you just simply end a legally valid marriage should a ground arise.
Because English language is part of our subject from Kinder until college.Mostly,what we can see in our environment like signage,&etc are in English language.
Not as easy as it sounds 😂

Hi, Ovela. I've been writing in a Filipino-language based publication for two years. Almost every word in English does have a Filipino translation. The matter that is concerning is just that Filipinos rather find it easier to use certain words in English rather than in their local language.

what do you mean? provincial languages like bisaya/hiligaynon has 40-60% spanish in them, and Tagalog has 30-40% spanish in it, so basically speaking we do speak with a mix of spanish loan words.

Regarding with "F" and "P" or Filipino vs Pilipino, Filipino is the current and most updated term to refer both the language and the people. In 1940s if I am not mistaken, "Tagalog" the most popular dialect in Luzon had been the basis for calling the Language and the People of the Philippines, and "F" is not part of their alphabets. Moreover, before, scholars gave argued that "F" is a borrowed letter and not nationalistic. However further studies have shown that "F" is not borrowed as Ifugao tribe of Luzon and B'laan tribe of Mindanao have F in their local dialects. So the Commission assigned to flourish Filipino language have change PILIPINO to FILIPINO to address other ethnic groups in the country. As FILIPINO language now is defined as the National Language of the Philippines that is based in Tagalog and flourished continuosly (as it is dynamic) from the other languages and dialects the country have. 😉
Pilipino is the language and Filipino is Nationality, this is true when you are filling up forms for a work abroad. you do fill-up the questions; what is your Nationality? - Filipino and what is your Language? - Pilipino
@Noah Smith It is not about making things complicated. It is about stating facts. I understand the Filipino for English and Pilipino for Tagalog as it is what people believe is right. But it is actually not. Please do some research, not solely in Google but in books. Thanks.
@@edgarcapitobalan I am sorry sir, but the People and the Language should be written as FILIPINO.
It is even stated in our constitution... Section 6, Article XIV of the 1987 Constitution that specifies Filipino as the national language also states: “As it evolves, it shall be further developed and enriched on the basis of existing Philippine and other languages.” This emphasizes that enrichment through existing Philippine languages. We should also not call Philippines language as Tagalog because it is not Tagalog at all, it is just the basis.
Pilipino subjects is taught in school curriculum, there is no such subject in school curriculum as Filipino. "Pilipino" is the combination of all the dialects we Filipino speaks.
Kindly take note that some older Filipinos speak Spanish fluently to this day.
True, kagaya ko bisaya, pro ngaung adult nako saka ko narealize na may mga spanish word pala kaming ginagamit like Espejo, vamonos, uno dos tres, cuatro, cingco...... natutunan lng namin sa mga kalolohan kalolaha, na ang akala ko nun bisaya words mga yan, spanish pala.
Spanish is inside filipinos languages from 30% to 80% did you know ?
hahahah funny,.. but they said "Kubyertos, Kutsara, tinidor, Platito, Kurtina, Kamusta, banyo" even they are a bit spanish ahhahaha
Where? My mother and her siblings are in their 70s and can't speak Spanish fluently, not even close lol

This is another misconception in Filipino language. Filipino language is composed of Katutubong Wika (Indigenous Languages), Different Languages and Dialects spoken in the Philippines, and Loan words. So therefore Tagalog is not equal to Filipino. People would think that Tagalog is Filipino.
Yes. Tagalog is not the national language. Filipino is. Tagalog is the main language upon which Filipino is built upon. The Filipino alphabet is comprised of the English alphabet plus "ng" and "ñ".
It can’t be helped because Filipino is heavily based in Tagalog.
Yep, Filipino, not Tagalog, is the Philippine National Language. 👍
@@jesssc402 That is precisely because Tagalog is the core language. If Cebuano was the primary tongue then it would follow that Cebuano would be dominant in Filipino. It would be impractical to evenly spread out our vocabulary and grammar to accomodate all 170 languages spoken by Philippine ethnic groups.
The inclusion of words to enrich Filipino vocabulary will come naturally from local and foreign sources as we communicate with each other.
filipino language is a super set , tagalog is just a subset, they just used tagalog in this video because they're in manila, you don't expect malineños to speak in cebuano right??, they didn't said tagalog is the whole filipino language🙄🙄🙄 anywhere in the vid 🙄🙄
You know what's funny if they interview older people
I'm pretty sure most of them will mix Tagalog and spanish
Some of the tagalog are also spanish 😜
Hindi nila kinuha ang pahayag ko e. Puro ako magtagalog hahaha
This information I got came from my professor when I was studying in college.
The correct TAGLISH way is that when you're speaking like multiple sentences or paragraph, you should be saying or talking an entire sentence with either english or tagalog, and you're just allowed to switch language whenever you finish a specific sentence.
For example:
Tagalog: ANG PANGALAN KO AY MARCO. NAKATIRA AKO SA PILIPINAS.
English: MY NAME IS MARCO. I LIVE IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Taglish:
1. ANG PANGALAN KO AY MARCO. I LIVE IN THE PHILIPPINES
2. MY NAME IS MARCO. NAKATIRA AKO SA PILIPINAS.
Note: Mixing both Tagalog and English in just one sentence is not TAGLISH and seems to be a wrong way of using it.
Wrong:
1. NAKATIRA AKO IN THE PHILIPPINES.
2. ANG PANGALAN KO IS MARCO.
PS. This is just an opinionated comment and not based on google, etc. HAHAAHHA Dont judge. 😂
Conyo,
@@chechaimiano1925 and i oop-
It's not wrong. In language class, It's called "code mixing". 😊
@@argargielou Thanks! 🥰
Your professor was right! Avoid mixing English and Tagalog.
7:24 yes, you're correct ovelaa, and we called it "Hiram na salita" borrowed word... Because if we tend to translate it in Filipino it will sound hilarious ☺️ And anyways Tagalog is not our national language it's Filipino, before it is called Pilipino which is clearly based on Tagalog but lots of law makers argue about that. That our national language must also include/adapt other dialects such sa bisaya, hiligaynon because as we all know Philippines is a multicultural country that will also make it a multilingual ,due to the geographic aspect..so in the Year 1935 not sure from Pilipino our national language was change into Filipino (a modern and includes other languages/dialect in the country but still mostly Tagalog)
Furthermore, Tagalog is the language of the people living mostly at the northern part of the Philippines or luzon areas, and it is way deeper and more difficult than our national language Filipino.
To all the Pinoys reading this if your confuse the difference is: example instead of pisara(blackboard) in Filipino it is "blakbord", instead of "yeso"(chalk) it is called "tsuk" hahaha yes, and it is also a great example of Hiram na salita (borrowed words), you should write the word according on how you pronounce it in English or whatever language it originate(etc.) ,There are changes Lang sa pagbaybay(spelling) using Alpabetong Filipino (take note, not also every word applicable in this technique☺️)
MANILA, Philippines - Seventy-five years ago today, President Manuel L. Quezon addressed the nation in Filipino via radio.
It was the first time that a President spoke on air using Filipino, which was declared the Philippines' national language by virtue of Executive Order No. 134 issued on December 30, 1937.
Gino Abelido Bisaya and Hiligaynon are not dialects. They are languages including other languages (Bicol, Waray, Pampanga, Tausug, etc.) in the rest of the country. A dialect is a variant of a language distinguished by features of vovabulary, grammar and pronounciation.
Thank you sa mga correction ,highly appreciated ❤️
Well We Could also base it How we write baybayin
People from southern luzon and most of the provinces in CALABARZON can.
About the statement that Filipino's way of thinking that if someone's speaking in English they have or he/she has a higher standard of living, rather it just their first impression😊😊 Enjoyed watching this reaction😍😍from Philippines
11:05 i agree what he said! Bcause Most of the people said that if you're, a good in english people think that you are smart because not all Filipinos can speak fluent in English. Thats for me
Pilipino teachers may pull it off
10:55
I'm not agree on what he stated on his interview. Speaking English doesn't mean your level on social status is more higher than non english speakers, speaking English language can help you in different ways but it doesn't mean you are higher to those who only speaks tagalog.
Siguro means, "maybe" or "I think".
Sigurado is the term used for "surely" or "definitely". 😊
11:20 Even me sir I don't like that perception either but I can't help it but to agree to him . Some Filipinos were downgraded by others because they cannot speak english fluently , most of them believed that when you don't speak english you only knew basic things in your life.
Out of all ppl they'd interviewed, they asked these kids...
On behalf of millions of us living in the province, our language is definitely not "dying" as per se, it's just manileños just love to mess up their language, downside of living in the city.
True. We in mindanao, we value our languange than english. Yes, we speak english in schools but when we are in our home or outside the school we use tagalog language than english. We value more our own language. But if there is a foreigner we intend to speak english rightfully.

Napakaganda ng iyong mga kumento Ovela. Napakahirap talagang magsalita ng purong tagalog kaya nararapat lamang ito ay ating pagyamanin. Sana ang mga susunod na henerasyon ay pagpahalagahan ang wikang tagalong. Salamat sa iyong reaksiyon. Mabuhay ka Ovela!
11:02 i agree with u ovela, it's a toxic perceptions of filipinos
Most Asian countries have that perception.
mostly visayans cause they think they're better than anyone here 🙄 mahahangin
At 7:56, you are correct Ovela. I speak to my child in Tagalog all the time and taught her to call me “Nanay” (Tagalog term for Mommy or Mama). Most of The youth today are exposed to English language as early as infant. As a parent, I am guilty of that.
Most parents sing English lullabyes to their child (guilty again), have them watch cartoons in English. When they are teaching their child the terms, for example, of animals or objects, it is usually in two languages -their mother tongue and in English. I also observed that most people lives in Metro Manila are the ones who speaks English or in Taglish more. And usually, if the family is from middle to upper class level, they do not speak much in Filipino. They converse in English. The only time that a child will learn Filipino is in school. So the struggle in the youth is real. We have so many dialects here and English language is used somewhat a middle ground if, for an example, a Tagalog went to Cebu and doesnt know to speak Bisaya dialect.
It is saddening because SOME of my fellow Filipinos think that if we use English to speak and express ourselves, it is somewhat a measurement of a higher intelligence.
But on the positive side if you go outside Metro Manila, the further you go the more the mother tongue prevails.
Just finished my Mgn reaction marathon and Yoww its Grabeh Grabehhh

@@musicgamenews Thanks ma mhen💖
Hays to the "KAPAMILYA" thingy😄...personally, I find no problem over the word. There shouldn't be division feelers especially with what is going on around the world right now. We are all a FAMILY (KAPAMILYA🇵🇭) at a time right now.
True, I feel bad that Ovela feels that he needs to explain especially this very little thing. Man, We should look at a bigger picture and realize that the word Kapamilya doesn't just refer to the Channel but has a deeper meaning behind it.
@@rochelleannegerona6191 Exactly...FAMILY is LOVE❤️
I actually got offended when he didn't refer KAPAMILYA as abs-cbn. I mean im not that offended its just suddenly he said its not about abs. ❤
That's exactly what i'm talking about with my friends in the Philippines! Here in France is the same thing there's a lot of word that some French people used that you think is French but it's not really, sometimes we have Morocan or Algerian words! (And of course English word too)
[Je te suit depuis des année je me rend compte maintenant que tu viens du Quebec ;p]

Sometimes I forgot the tagalog word but know the English translation..so we speak TagLish tagalog English haha
@11:03 that's correct, it's hard to admit but that's the truth, it was embedded in the mind of most of us Filipinos that when you speak English or taglish it kinda feels like you belong in the higher echelon of society.
Surely, (learning) Language is difficult
but indeed powerful.
11:02 the reason behind this perception COULD be..IMO...
the way one speaks English (accent and proficiency) says a lot about the educational background (the kind of school attended) of that person which is in turn related to that person’s social status. But of course not everyone who could speak good English exclusively come from the more “expensive” schools and universities.
Tagalog is an Austronesian language belonging to the Malayo-Polynesian subfamily, with outside influences from Malay and Chinese, and later from both Spanish and American English through four centuries of colonial rule.
@11:35 ovela, seguro is a spanish word that means sure. while siguro in philippines means maybe. tagalog word for sure is sigurado
Siguro means maybe and sigurado means surely.
Thank u so much for reacting to this... i'm always here silently watching, appreciating and liking your videos... lots of love from Philippines!! ❤❤❤
These people are the younger ones, yup, it's really going to be tough for them...
@5:59 most of us Filipinos were used to speak in TagLish (conyo), usually for those who lived in NCR (National Capital Region. aka Metro Manila) especially those in the exclusive subdivisions and those who are studying in Ateneo, La Salle, Poveda to them a few. they can't speak straight Tagalog , but you can find those people who can if you go to the rural areas(Nayon) of Rizal, Batangas, Laguna, Quezon, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, because it's their mother tongue and the Tagalog language they're using is unadulterated.
cudberry flavored cupcake I disagree a Batanguenyo will not not translate cellphone or facebook in an unadulterated tagalog
Chiz Escudero is great in Tagalog. Husband of actress Heart Evangelista. 😊
Tama
I think it depends on where you live, those students were mostly stayed in Manila and they'd adapted already to the way how people there in Manila speak.
Older generation is more fluent, especially for those who born during the american colonialism
Also during the Japanese
It's okay kuya Ovela! No need to say sorry, Kapamilya is always the best. #FamilyIsLove💖
This reaction was very interesting cause feel ashamed for us filipino's that were not as fluent as it is in speaking Tagalog easier for us in "taglish"( Tagalog & English)
Have you heard about “Chavacano”? It’s a Spanish Creole spoken in the Philippines. That would be interesting to see you reacting to people speaking Chavacano.
In iloilo. You speak english with tune sounds like you're a sweet guy 😂 😂
Hi Ovela, there is one person that i admire the most in speaking Tagalog. It's propesor Randy David of the University of the Philippines. He has a t.v. program before, the forum it's like a debate. And in the end of the program he will give his opinion or view on the debated matter. In pure Tagalog and it's like listening to the music when he speaks in pure and some are deep tagalog. I really missed his program.
FROM PHILIPPINES HERE🇵🇭
Misconception tagalog is not our national language. Tagalog was just used as "batayan" of our national language which is the Filipino that compose of all the languages, dialect and hiram na salita which we used.
So sad that the interviewer doesn't know what is the difference between "Filipino" And "Tagalog"
Come on dude! 😒😒
Yeah right🤣
There is no divorce but there are the annulment and legal separation, the use of either is appropriate depending on the specific situation. If, from the very start a pre-condition or pre-conditions for a legal wedding was not met, annulment is applicable. If the reason for the desired separations occurred during the married life, the legal separation is used.
Hi Ovela! I am a Filipina mom of two teenagers here in the Philippines and I tell you, I always scold my kids how come they struggle with their Filipino subject and doing great in English. I feel sad that there are basically basic Filipino words that they don't know the meaning of. Our language is really very beautiful and rich, especially when used in poetry. Let me give you a few examples of Tagalog translations of one english word 😎
Beautiiful - maganda, marilag, mayumi
love - pagmamahal, pag-ibig
see - makita, masilayan
So as a parent, it will be my responsibility to help them embrace and be equipped, right?
We actually had a debate about divorce in our classroom here in the Philippines and it opened up so many topics for us to touch on. For me as a student who participated in this debate was very conflicted since we Filipinos are very religious and I think because of our religiousness divorce is not made legal. You can give a lot of reasons as to why you want to divorce that person, let it be good or bad. It's just our freedom of choice as a Filipino that is limited especially in divorce.
That's hard, Bruh! I can't complete a sentence without mixing Tagalog and English....
But you know what, our great great grand parents are more fluent in speaking in English coz during American era here in PH, Americans are their first teachers!
Aside from lost in translation, the english speaking countries got to the top first in terms of economic power therefore influencing the rest of the world and making english an international language. Besides, almost 60% of good paying-jobs in the Philippines are outsourced from the west making the english language an essential advantage to us applicants.
Tagalog: Siguro
English: Maybe
they even not sure what they’re talkin about, also they’re not sure if its ‘s legit or not
Siguro is Spanish
"Seguro" (spanish) means "sure" pero pwede rin pong gamitin sa Filipino
"Siguro" (Filipino) means "maybe" 😌
PS. BSEd Filipino po yung course ko ☺️ skl.

Can you share Algerian Culture? I’m interested to know where you originally from,do they speak like Filipino mix wit other language.
Sanaol kayang magsalita ng Tagalog lang hahaha
That was a good vidclip you've chosen. I think there are topics which you can't discuss purely in Tagalog without using English words. But one can still converse purely in Tagalog especially if one lives in Manila area. Those who tend to mix up Taglish are those who weren't raised in a pure Tagalog environment like they grew up in neighboring provinces or they actually speak TAGLISH at home. I was born in Manila but now I live in Cebu, but whenever I meet a Tagalog-speaking fellow I can always speak in straight Tagalog. Perhaps, one's upbringing and environment matters in enhancing one's language skills. Or it also depends on one's preference though. Thanks for bringing up this interesting topic.
try to react for (halik) Glock 9 ft. flow G ..its No.2 on trending uploaded by wish107.5
4:30 - because Philippines is a very religious country and most of the Filipinos are Catholic and we follows the rules of our religion because it is in the catholic bible, that's why divorce is not "yet" legal here in our country.
@10:49 P & F difference between Pilipino and Filipino.
Truth is, “Pilipino” - the name of the language corresponding to “Pilipinas” - was rejected during the 1970s because like the abakada it carried a Tagalog memory. “Pilipino” was replaced with “Filipino” for the latter to symbolize the modern nationalistic .
While My elementary teacher differentiate it as
Filipino - our national language
Pilipino - the citizens
Hi Ovela! In the Philippines, divorce is not the way to legally sever the marriage bonds between husband and wife, since there is no enabling law passed by our Congress. In our jurisdiction, there are 3 ways to legally sever the marriage ties, to wit:
1. Declaration of Absolute Nullity of Marriage. The only ground for this is psychological incapacity. Once decreed by court, either spouse is allowed to remarry and there is complete liquidation of assets;
2. Annulment. Under our Family Code, there are several grounds to annul marriage. Only those grounds enumerated in the law shall be invoked when filing a petition for annulment in court. Like the first one, either spouse can likewise remarey once granted by the court, and there is complete liquidation of assets likewise; and
3. Legal separation. Unlike the first two, this one does not allow either spouse to remarry when granted by the court. This is only a separation "in bed" and not a separation "in fact". And like the No. 2, there are specific grounds where one can be legally separated from his/her spouse as sanctioned by the court.
As you can see, in the Philippines, you cannot just simply have your marriage be declared null and void whenever you want to. There must be a valid ground. That is the difference between divorce and the 3 ways i cited above. With divorce, you can just simply go to court and get a decree nullifying your marriage without any valid reason. Under our law, we acknowledge the sanctity of marriage which forms the family, a basic unit of society recognized by our State as a social inviolable institution. Thus, any thing which threatens the foundation of a family is strictly dealt with by our law.
Hope you will be enlightened by this. This is just to correct and a point of clarification when you say that husband and wife here in the Philippines can separate without any papers since there is no divorce. Again, there is no divorce here, but there are other ways, and even stricter because of the ones i explained above. 😊
@11:35 Seguro came from Spanish, meaning SURE. but when Filipinos adapted the word, the meaning became "Maybe". Funny right?
Nice reaction video. Please do more of this same content Ovela...
Indeed! If someone speaks english here with a nice accent and can really converse in english with Americans or foreigners comfortably then people will see them as above average and respect them.
Personally, I was taught at an earlier age to speak English (however, my mother tongue is Cebuano, a Filipino dialect), because I was homeschooled with an American based curriculum. When I moved to a public school, that was when I started learning Filipino, and it was really hard for me because I was learning Filipino at the same time I was learning History in Filipino (It was traumatic, jk). Until now, I can say that I am more fluent in speaking in English rather than in Filipino, but I still could speak fluently in Cebuano without mixing English because almost all my friends speak mostly in Cebuano.
Thanks for reading everything. Have a nice day! 😊
I think it is hard for the interviewees to speak 100% Filipino because they have to answer a question about legalizing divorse which is a sensitive issue for conservative Filipinos.
I just notice that one of the interviewee spoke 100% Filipino when he became casual to the interviewer 12:04
I have difficulties, too, in speaking my national language. I do not just mix it with english at times but also with my native dialect. So sometimes, when I speak with my other friends that are in different province in the Philippines, our conversation becomes question and answer session. But I think I can fully talk or maybe 90% with my language (Filipino) because of maybe the experience I got from going to different provinces with different dialects, Filipino is our means of communication so I think it practiced me to speak well.
We use spanish too often use the
Spanish numbers in buying or price
So when the costumer says how much (in tagalog)
We say for example
Tres it means three right
Pilipino is the Language (mixture of philippine dialects) Filipino is the Nationality. This so when we are filling-up forms for a work abroad. to the Question of What is your Nationality? which is Filipino and What is your language? Which is Pilipino.
Pilipino is taught in schools to enhance the philippine language
Hope this helps you. Annulment and divorce are two interrelated words about marriage, the former is an English word and what we have here in Ph. The difference is that, annulment nullify the marriage, like it declares the marriage invalid while divorce ends a marriage. However only few can afford annulment here that is why a lot of people want divorce to be legalized.
Among our public officials, Gov Chiz Escudero (prev senator, and hubby of tv personality/actress Heart Evangelista) is very articulate in speaking tagalog. So admirable whenever he talks in straight tagalog. LIkewise in english🤩
Yes Ovela. In Filipino subject, we were taught about “hiram na salita” (borrowed language/words). These are words without filipino translation :) so yes, we are allowed to use it when talking filipino :)
Hi Ovela, my dad being a world war 2 veteran can’t speak in Tagalog nor read Tagalog. If you speak to him he will always answer back in English, but we do have our native language (tribal language) and a local language aside from Tagalog
Yes,and that is a struggle for some Filipinos,fluency in speaking English language has a strong impact in communication and understanding in terms of tongue diversity
Bilang isang masugid na mambabasa at masusing pinag aralan ang iyong mga nakitang hadlang sa paggamit ng filipinong linguwahe.....

In our Filipino alphabet, we don't have F and V, but we have ñ and ng. That's the reason why older generations of Filipino have a hard time with their F and P also V and B. Especially those who lived in rural areas. Did you know that we have an ancient script and it's called Baybayin. It is a very cute script, try searching for it, you can see an inverted heart there.
Mabuti na lamang at kinalakhan kong magsalita at magsulat sa Filipino mula elementarya hanggang mataas na paaralan maging sa kolehiyo.

English is very important to Filipinos because it gave us advantage.We use english to be able to communicate to others.We use english in works/jobs/ or something like that.
haha I liked it...
Me being a Filipino finds it really difficult to speak in Tagalog hehe...
I used to speak English often...
but i do practice speaking tagalog to my family and to anyone I talked to.
yes, im good in tagalog. although im working here in hongkong i use English but sometimes i use Korean because of my employer and sometimes Cantonese when i go to market plus i talking also ilonggo becouse i came from negros Occidental province.
Hi ovela..very true..we are bilingual being a filipina myself..hard to express most things in pure tagalog..find it comfortable if we combine both languages..😊❤️🇵🇭
This mostly happens in Metro Manila. But most people in the surrounding regions can still speak decent Tagalog, or their respective regional languages and use English words only when necessary, or if there's no direct translation.

I’ve been here In the USA since 1985 and It’s actually very difficult for me to speak one language in one sentence at home. This is because I speak VISAYAN, TAGALOG AND ENGLISH. I was born and raised In Mindanao...where we speak the VISAYAN / Cebuano dialect. Then I spent 8 years in Manila during college and got married to a Tagalog guy. Gave birth to 2 kids in Manila . Then came to the USA working as an RN,BSN. 😍
Hi Sir..i think i know one..i watch Mexican Novelas dramas ...i never heard them mixing words in English language ..i keep on following those novelas because i understand some word s because some tagalog word is same in Spanish..me too Sir i can't speak straight in tagalog am taglish🙂
Here in the Philippines,if you can speak english fluently,you are considered by some Filipino people as "intelligent or bright"but in fact english speaking is not the measurement of being intelligent.
I just finished watching your Phillipine Anthem reaction. And it's really hard to use some Tagalog terms that have easy English translations. Like when you say "nagniningning" , it just meant "shine" in English.😂😂 But as a Filipino, the way I understand "nagniningning" is a type of a sincere and serious term while when you say "shine" it just sounds singing praises and flattering
Oh wait! Its not a term but a deep and sincere description.
Haha . I like your explanation about callong your filipino viewer kapamilya. . It has been a little since i subscribe. Congrtas you now have a lot of subscribers
Very important to take note :
1.) know that the the Philippines has more than 100 local dialects. And on some very particular areas or places with very strong accent and the F to P or P to F is part of the most difficult letters to say.
2. About being in a higher strata of society is just an impression derive from someone who has a wide range of vocabularies that proved that that person or that someone is a well read or very up to date on social media or what’s around.
Filipino law has no divorce proceedings.. Only anullment is legal here.. Its a bit more strict and complicated to process with all the legal papers and it takes a while.
My 8 year old son's first language is English. They were taught in school in this language but incorporating Filipino now because they have two tagalog subjects but the rest are english.
While absolute divorce in the Philippines is not legal, we have other modes of severing the marital tie such as annulment and declaration of nullity of marriage. The difference, however, is with respect to the grounds where you could avail these remedies. Divorce, I would say, is the most lenient of them all since you are not declaring a marriage void from the beginning or annulling a valid (voidable) marriage because of vices of consent, but you just simply end a legally valid marriage should a ground arise.
Because English language is part of our subject from Kinder until college.Mostly,what we can see in our environment like signage,&etc are in English language.
