When there is Occidental (West.side), there is also Oriental (East). I live in Negros Occidetal, on the Negros Island, in the mid part of the Philiipines.
I'll try the video on my 3 y/o grandniece and find out if it's to her liking. Check out the Philippines' history with the Jews & White Russians. You will learn to appreciate our values and traits. Or Filipinos who settled in Louisiana even before the USA came to be.
Filipinos pronounce vowels not the American way. A,E,I,O,U pronounced as Ah, Eh, Eee, Oh, Uh not Ey, Eee, Eye, Ohh, You. That's similar when saying Filipino words.
States, provinces, canton, prefecture, emirate, department etc are basically the same. They are the first-level administrative division of a country, usually govern by an elected leader like a governor. States are usually associated with federation where the power is distributed. While provinces is usually associated with unitary.
Philippines is divided into 18 regions regions and each region will have provinces within it. Each province can be further subdivided into several cities with each city being subdivided into several barangays. Barangay (pronounced barang guy) is the smallest geographical political unit
The difference between state and province is that, states (in the case of US) were usually formed first, already self-governing (has own laws) and acting independent from any other geopolitical entity (state or any other country) which eventually joined in agreememt with other states to form a country, adding more states to make up a federation of states to create a singular country administered by a central government while respecting each member states ability to make laws for their respective constituents. While province is quite the opposite in terms of creation. A country's identity is usually established first and administration of all the territories are divided into manageable sub-units (provinces).
- It's kind of the same thing, if US has 50 states then we have 81 here. Same goes with the regions if you have 4 regions we have 17 here. - By the way, we pronounced Letter A as "ah" not "ey". - Occidental is west, Oriental is East - Yup, San Fernando is both the capital of La Union and Pampanga.
The capital of Pampanga pronounced as PAM-PANG-GA(a province in central Luzon) is San Fernando. La Union pronounced as LAH-OON-YON(a province in northern Luzon) is also San Fernando. Both are San Fernando but of different locations.
Not exactly the same in the case of US. Prior to what is USA now, the states were independent from any other geopolitical units. People from different states don't refer to themselves "American" because, the identity "American" as a country wasn't established by that time (time when states in US were just sprouting).
Occidental (west) and Oriental (east) is common to indicate if tge the province is West or East. Also with the del Norte and del Sur for North and South.
A province is consists of towns. A province is headed by a governor. Each town or a city in the province is headed by a mayor. But in case of the country's capital city, Metro Manila or NCR (National Capital Region) which consists of 16 cities and a town are headed by mayors.
the way we learn those provinces is hard like we are like kids when we learn those and we have to recite all of those in front of the class, the way we do it is because as our country is divided into regions and regions to provinces we would say "region 1" the province one two three, etc, "region 2"and etc.
✌️😊🇵🇭 *PHILIPPINE POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY 101 Part 2* Most of the places here in the Philippines when they are further divided subdivided in time and don't get a new or newer name for the new or newer place, or get new or newer names for the new or newer places formed, just get either a Spanish or an English name (rarely a name from the Filipino national language or other native, indigenous, local, regional, or autochtonous languages and dialects of the Philippines) added to the or to a previous, old, recent, or original name of the place like a province or whatnot, and some of these are: Oriental [o-ri-yen-tál]/[or-yen-tál] (meaning "Eastern") = usually added after the name of the place to mean the eastern part or half. If it is the English word "East" or "Eastern", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Silangan" (East) or "Silanganan" (Eastern), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" added so it will be "Silangang" or "Silanganang". Occidental [ok-si-den-tál] (meaning "Western") = usually added after the name of the place to mean the western part or half. If it is the English word "West" or "Western", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Kanluran" (West) or "Kanluranin" (Western), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" added so it will be "Kanlurang" or "Kanluraning". del Norte [del nór-te] (meaning "of the North" or "Northern") = usually added after the name of the place to mean the northern half or part. If it is the English word "North " or "Northern", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Hilaga" (North or Northern), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" added so it will be "Hilagaang". del Sur [del súr] (meaning "of the South" or "Southern") = usually added afte the name of the place to mean the southern part or half. If it is the English word "South" or "Southern ", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Timog" (South) or "Katimugan" (Southern), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" added only to the word "Katimugan" so it will be "" or "Katimugan". Viejo or el Viejo [bi-yé-ho]/[byé-ho] or [el bi-yé-ho]/[el byé-ho] (meaning "Old" or "the Old") = usually added after the name of the place to mean the original, previous, or older area. If it is the English word "Old" or "Older", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Luma" (Old) or "Matanda" (Old), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" so it will be "Lumang" or "Matandang", or after the name of the place but with the grammatical connector word "na" so it will be "na Luma" or "na Matanda". Nuevo or Nueva [nu-wé-bo]/[nwé-bo] or [nu-wé-ba]/[nwé-ba] (meaning "New") = usually added before the name of the place to mean the newer area or a new place named after another existing older, original, or previous place. If it is the English word "New" or "Newer", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Bago" (New), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" so it will be "Bagong", or after the name of the place but with the grammatical connector word "na" so it will be "na Bago".
✌️😁🇵🇭 *PHILIPPINE POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY 101 Part 3* In the Philippines, when there is a place that has the word "Oriental" [o-ri-yen-tál]/[or-yen-tál] (which means "Eastern") after or before it, then more or less it also has a place adjacent, neighboring, or nearby to it that also shares the same name of the place but just with the word "Occidental" [ok-si-den-tál] (which means "Western") added after or before it. Ex. "Oriental Mindoro" is on the east or eastern side of "Occidental Mindoro" which is to its west or western side. They both share the island of Mindoro and they are the eastern and western parts or halves of the then island province of Mindoro with its other surrounding, nearby, closer, neighboring, or adjacent islands and islets under its jurisdiction, administration, and/or authority. This is also mostly true for the following: + "East" or "Eastern" is to "West" or "Western". + "Silangan (Silangang)" or "Silanganan (Silanganang)", which means "East" and "Eastern" respectively, is to "Kanluran (Kanlurang)" or "Kanluranin (Kanluraning)", which means "West" and "Western" respectively. + "del Sur" [del súr], which means "of the South" or "Southern", is to "del Norte" [del nór-te], which means "of the North" or "Northern". + "South" or "Southern" is to "North" or "Northern". + "Timog" or "Katimugan (Katimugang)", which means "South" and "Southern" respectively, is to "Hilaga (Hilagang)" which means "North" or "Northern". + "Old" or "Older" is to "New" or "Newer". + "Viejo" or "el Viejo", which means "Old" or "Older" and "the Old" respectively, is to "Nuevo" or "Nueva", which means "New" or "Newer". + "Luma (Lumang)" or "na Luma" or "Matanda (Matandang)" or "na Matanda", which means "Old" or "Older", is to "Bago (Bagong)" or "na Bago", which means "New" or "Newer". + "Lower" is to "Upper". + "Bajo" or "Baja", which means "Low" or "Lower", is to "Alto" or "Alta", which means "Upper", "High", or "Higher". + "Little" or "Small" is to "Big" or "Great". + "Pequeño" or "Pequeña", which means "Small" or "Little", is to "Grande" or "Gran", which means "Big" and "Great" respectively.
We pronounce all our vowels. If there are 2 consecutive vowels in a word we phonetically sound them all. Like BATAAN, it is pronounced like BAH-TA-AN. BAGOONG (shrimp paste) is pronounced as BAH-GO-ONG.
A-E-I-O-U. We don't pronounce A as in Asia. We pronounce it as Ahhhh-pple, E not as in Eel but as Ehhh-lephant, I not as in Iron but as iLL or Eel. O not as Oww but Ohh and U not as You but Oooohhh... or Uber. Enjoy Pinoy pronounciation and and have a nice day! ;)
Geographically, province is pretty much like a state. Politically tho, in general, province is like another managerial "department" of the country. Like a bigger unit divided into smaller ones for ease of governance. In the PH the provinces act directly under the national gorvernment and doesn't really have much autonomy unlike a state. For example, Taxes. In the Philippines, you file the same form of taxes whatever province you are in. The tax law is applied the same wherever you are in the country. But then again, if I'm not mistaken, the US uses the federal system while the Philippines does not, it's a republic thus the political differences. Above is just a comparison between US and PH since a state and a province may have different meaning in different countries. I hope this helps!😁😁 God Bless😊😊
Cabadbaran Agusan del norte is where I came from.. Cabadbaran is a city and Agusan del norte is province( or like a state) we speak Bisaya language but we can speak Tagalog too..and im now living in Grand Prairie Texas ( a city of creek) lol 😂
A "state" would be almost synonymous to a "country" so the whole Philippines is comparable to just a state in the United States. A "province" is considered a subdivision within a state like how there are "counties" within a state in the USA. Hope this helps. P. S. The pronunciation of some of the names in the video is quite incorrect due to the heavy American accent. Ex: Iloilo is pronounced as Eee-Lo-Eee-Lo not Ay-Lo-Wee-Lo
State is the same as province. They are called states or provinces depending on the country's form of government. Province has more autonomy i think compared to a State. Its not about the size of the country or territory. Equating the Philippines to a State of the USA is just wrong. Canada has provinces but that does not mean Canada just equals to a US state. Canada is bigger than the US if we include water territories but the US is slightly bigger than Canada if we are to only compare land area.
@@iamjv2k alright if that is how you see it. Every nation have their own forms of internal subdivisions anyway. I personally see the US as an assembly of "countries" since the states can actually secede and become a full fledged country if they wanted to but will risk war with the whole union.
@@iamjv2k also, Canada's "provinces" can also be considered as "countries" already the way I see it since they have their own unicameral legislative bodies and can become independent countries if allowed to secede.
@@iamjv2kthe government structure of the Philippine "provinces" are not the same as the states of the US or the provinces of Canada especially that the country is under a unitary form of a republic. But anyway, I might still be wrong.
The singers/rappers are not Filipinos. They mispronounced some of the provinces and their capitals. A-E-I-O-U,our vowels are pronounced as A as in apple AH E as in egg EH I as in India EE O as in onion UH U as in udon OO( like in BOOK)
The republic of Phillippines has almost 2 million economic migrant in state of Sabah Malaysia I read somewhere the United States has almost 2 million Fillipino economic migrant too
Well, considering that Sabah is an Illegal Occupied State by the Federation of Malaysia, and an Ancestral Territory of the Filipinos, it is not surprising if there are many of them there. Many of them are even there before the Inclusion of Sabah into Malaysian Federation and they're still being discriminated by the occupying Malays that was illegally settled there.
@@romeocivilino6667 1st of all the people of Sabah prefer Malaysia over Phillippines . They make a right choise because as you all knows it is Malaysia that helps to curb rebellion in Southern Phillippine & stop thousand of mass migration of poverty stricken Filipinos into Sabah.
We dont have flags for every Provinces (maybe some had) but We share one flag and that is Philippine flag.We have logo and hymn that every province has... to symbolize the place. Province is just like State in US. State for us means country...hahah
I live in the philippines i was born in metro manila but sa the world in pampanga i can speak filipino if you want in philippines that means kaya ko mag speak filipino
"States" in the context of the US are like oblasts in Russia where different territories have a lot of autonomy, have their own laws, their own constitution, and is part of a federation. Provinces/prefectures/etc such as in countries like the Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, and many more have less autonomy and is more centralized so the same laws apply anywhere in the country except maybe for special autonomous regions for indigenous or minority populations. Smaller countries tend to favor centralization, while large countries have federations... well except for china where power is super-concentrated in the communist party.
This is kinda funny. For example, If foreigners asked you where do you live or where are you from. And then you said " I'm from Purok Uno Malinao Gabaldon Nueva Ecija Luzon Philippines" Now that's a VERY DETAIL WAY TO SAY WHERE DO YOU LIVE 😅😅😅🤣
It's nice that there is a learning vid like this in YT about our provinces but you have to know the pronunciation of the provinces and capitals is very American and therefore is not really uhm correct. But it's cute, hahaha.
The vowels of Filipino languages are almost the same as the vowels in Spanish. Ignore the long [A], [AE], [EY], [OW], vowels, and the [UH], etc., in the song because those are not the way locals will pronounce them. Remember to use short [O] (as in "or" and "more") a lot without putting a W at the end of it. Malaybalay is pronounced as [MAH-laih-ba-laih], not [meh-LEY-b'-LEY].
✌️😃🇵🇭 The pronunciations of the names of the provinces (and their capitals) of the Philippines in the video you watched are mostly incorrect due to the American English pronunciations and accents that the video content producers understandingly have. The best way to pronounce these names (except for English words like "City" or whatnot) is at least with neutral Latin American Spanish pronunciations and accents aside from with the various, varied, and diverse, but closely similar and almost the equally the same Filipino pronunciations and accents throughout the Philippines among the native, indigenous, local, regional, or autochtonous languages and dialects of the Philippines, including the Philippine or Filipino Spanish dialect, language variety, or language variant, and their pronunciations and accents.
Most of this places have North, East, South, and West in their name--derive from Latin and Spanish words Norte, Oriental, Sur, and Occidental respectively. Indeed, as I googled, the language known today as Spanish is derived from a dialect of spoken Latin, which was brought to the Iberian Peninsula by the Romans during the Second Punic War, beginning in 218 BC, and which evolved in central parts of the Iberian Peninsula after the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the fifth century. Hence, our colonizers spoke Latin and Spanish.. In conclusion, the Spanish language today is different from our colonizers. Thank you for the education Felix Flaus. Latin is not Spanish, yet Spanish is derived from Latin. 🙌
@@lisab1247 Can you comprehend?You generalized occidental and oriental with norte and sur as spanish. Those two words are english derived from latin Occidens and Oriente. Do you really read my reply? I'm referring to Occidental and Oriental as words not derived from Spanish.
@@firefoxcodex15 i do not need your reply. I understand you completely.. Through your reply, I have learned that our colonizers' language was not the Spanish language today. As you indicated that the words above were Latin and Spanish words. Yet, most Spanish words derived from Latin and Greek. Furthermore, Castilian Spanish is different from Spanish language. Thank you for your input. You are absolutely right that, Latin is not Spanish, yet Spanish is derived from Latin. I am thankful I have learned something new. ✌

Geezus H Christ. For an educational video, one would think the creator would look up how to pronounce the names of the places before singing at the top of their lungs. But nah, so now we got meyleybeyley.
The pronunciation of the places is odd coz that's not how Filipinos pronounce it. Example: Malaybalay in Bukidnon. It's not Muh-Lay-Buh-Lay but Mah-Lie-Bah-Lie. What we spell is what we speak and we speak words by syllables: Bataan is Bah-Tah-An
I thought PHEZZ is a Mexican...why he didn't even know that most of the Province name in Philippines has a Spanish name and the Occidental and Oriental names are common words used by Spanish speakers.
This is the first time I have listened to this song and it's nice and fun but dang my ears hahaha they're pronouncing everything wrong clap clap clap for the effort though haha

They are provinces. We never call them states.

del Norte [del nór-te] (meaning "of the North" or "Northern") = usually added after the name of the place to mean the northern half or part. If it is the English word "North " or "Northern", then it is added before the name of the place, and if it is the Filipino and/or Tagalog word "Hilaga" (North or Northern), then it is added before the name of the place but with the grammatical connector "-g" added so it will be "Hilagaang".

*PHILIPPINE POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY 101 Part 3*
In the Philippines, when there is a place that has the word "Oriental" [o-ri-yen-tál]/[or-yen-tál] (which means "Eastern") after or before it, then more or less it also has a place adjacent, neighboring, or nearby to it that also shares the same name of the place but just with the word "Occidental" [ok-si-den-tál] (which means "Western") added after or before it.
Ex.
"Oriental Mindoro" is on the east or eastern side of "Occidental Mindoro" which is to its west or western side. They both share the island of Mindoro and they are the eastern and western parts or halves of the then island province of Mindoro with its other surrounding, nearby, closer, neighboring, or adjacent islands and islets under its jurisdiction, administration, and/or authority.
This is also mostly true for the following:
+ "East" or "Eastern" is to "West" or "Western".
+ "Silangan (Silangang)" or "Silanganan (Silanganang)", which means "East" and "Eastern" respectively, is to "Kanluran (Kanlurang)" or "Kanluranin (Kanluraning)", which means "West" and "Western" respectively.
+ "del Sur" [del súr], which means "of the South" or "Southern", is to "del Norte" [del nór-te], which means "of the North" or "Northern".
+ "South" or "Southern" is to "North" or "Northern".
+ "Timog" or "Katimugan (Katimugang)", which means "South" and "Southern" respectively, is to "Hilaga (Hilagang)" which means "North" or "Northern".
+ "Old" or "Older" is to "New" or "Newer".
+ "Viejo" or "el Viejo", which means "Old" or "Older" and "the Old" respectively, is to "Nuevo" or "Nueva", which means "New" or "Newer".
+ "Luma (Lumang)" or "na Luma" or "Matanda (Matandang)" or "na Matanda", which means "Old" or "Older", is to "Bago (Bagong)" or "na Bago", which means "New" or "Newer".
+ "Lower" is to "Upper".
+ "Bajo" or "Baja", which means "Low" or "Lower", is to "Alto" or "Alta", which means "Upper", "High", or "Higher".
+ "Little" or "Small" is to "Big" or "Great".
+ "Pequeño" or "Pequeña", which means "Small" or "Little", is to "Grande" or "Gran", which means "Big" and "Great" respectively.
We pronounce all our vowels. If there are 2 consecutive vowels in a word we phonetically sound them all. Like BATAAN, it is pronounced like BAH-TA-AN.

The pronunciation is so funny. Hahaha! My province (Iloilo) was pronounced as "Eye Low Eye Low".
Geographically, province is pretty much like a state.
Politically tho, in general, province is like another managerial "department" of the country. Like a bigger unit divided into smaller ones for ease of governance.
In the PH the provinces act directly under the national gorvernment and doesn't really have much autonomy unlike a state.
For example, Taxes. In the Philippines, you file the same form of taxes whatever province you are in. The tax law is applied the same wherever you are in the country.
But then again, if I'm not mistaken, the US uses the federal system while the Philippines does not, it's a republic thus the political differences.
Above is just a comparison between US and PH since a state and a province may have different meaning in different countries.
I hope this helps!😁😁
God Bless😊😊
In the philippines we have the cities and provinces... We don't have states. Cities are governed by mayors, while provonces are governed by governors.
I am from northern Samar part of eastern visayas... always watching you guys❤️💕
Cabadbaran Agusan del norte is where I came from.. Cabadbaran is a city and Agusan del norte is province( or like a state) we speak Bisaya language but we can speak Tagalog too..and im now living in Grand Prairie Texas ( a city of creek) lol 😂
Oriental-eastern
Occidental -western
Del norte-northen
Del sur-southern
A "state" would be almost synonymous to a "country" so the whole Philippines is comparable to just a state in the United States. A "province" is considered a subdivision within a state like how there are "counties" within a state in the USA. Hope this helps.
P. S. The pronunciation of some of the names in the video is quite incorrect due to the heavy American accent. Ex: Iloilo is pronounced as Eee-Lo-Eee-Lo not Ay-Lo-Wee-Lo
State is the same as province. They are called states or provinces depending on the country's form of government. Province has more autonomy i think compared to a State. Its not about the size of the country or territory. Equating the Philippines to a State of the USA is just wrong. Canada has provinces but that does not mean Canada just equals to a US state. Canada is bigger than the US if we include water territories but the US is slightly bigger than Canada if we are to only compare land area.
@@iamjv2k alright if that is how you see it. Every nation have their own forms of internal subdivisions anyway. I personally see the US as an assembly of "countries" since the states can actually secede and become a full fledged country if they wanted to but will risk war with the whole union.
USA PHILIPPINES
State = Province
County = Districts (Groups of town/cities within the Province, usually 5 or more)
City = Municipality/City
@@iamjv2k also, Canada's "provinces" can also be considered as "countries" already the way I see it since they have their own unicameral legislative bodies and can become independent countries if allowed to secede.
@@iamjv2kthe government structure of the Philippine "provinces" are not the same as the states of the US or the provinces of Canada especially that the country is under a unitary form of a republic. But anyway, I might still be wrong.
Samar island is divided into 3 provinces, namely, northern samar, eastern samar, and samar(western)
The singers/rappers are not Filipinos. They mispronounced some of the provinces and their capitals.
A-E-I-O-U,our vowels are pronounced as
A as in apple AH
E as in egg EH
I as in India EE
O as in onion UH
U as in udon OO( like in BOOK)
The republic of Phillippines has almost 2 million economic migrant in state of Sabah Malaysia
I read somewhere the United States has almost 2 million Fillipino economic migrant too
Well, considering that Sabah is an Illegal Occupied State by the Federation of Malaysia, and an Ancestral Territory of the Filipinos, it is not surprising if there are many of them there. Many of them are even there before the Inclusion of Sabah into Malaysian Federation and they're still being discriminated by the occupying Malays that was illegally settled there.
@@romeocivilino6667
1st of all the people of Sabah prefer Malaysia over Phillippines . They make a right choise because as you all knows it is Malaysia that helps to curb rebellion in Southern Phillippine & stop thousand of mass migration of poverty stricken Filipinos into Sabah.
We dont have flags for every Provinces (maybe some had) but We share one flag and that is Philippine flag.We have logo and hymn that every province has... to symbolize the place. Province is just like State in US. State for us means country...hahah

I also loved this back then... I am into geography but I hoped they didn't tortured the names 😅
I agree, the pronunciations are all messed up. Sadly.
@@itsmefernythey way they pronounced Iloilo 😭
@@itsmeferny Yes recently after he quit animating for his channel he mistaked a croatian county as a country
"States" in the context of the US are like oblasts in Russia where different territories have a lot of autonomy, have their own laws, their own constitution, and is part of a federation. Provinces/prefectures/etc such as in countries like the Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, and many more have less autonomy and is more centralized so the same laws apply anywhere in the country except maybe for special autonomous regions for indigenous or minority populations. Smaller countries tend to favor centralization, while large countries have federations... well except for china where power is super-concentrated in the communist party.
Canada is huge and about the size of US but has provinces and have more autonomy than US states i think.
This is kinda funny. For example, If foreigners asked you where do you live or where are you from. And then you said " I'm from Purok Uno Malinao Gabaldon Nueva Ecija Luzon Philippines" Now that's a VERY DETAIL WAY TO SAY WHERE DO YOU LIVE 😅😅😅🤣

Trivia the old name of the state of Texas is Nuevas Filipinas or the New Philippines. Look it up.
AHAHSAHAHAHAH it's so hilarious the way the singer pronounce the
name of the places
Yup lol
Ca-vi-te tapos yung pronounciation nya Ca-vayt.😂
It's nice that there is a learning vid like this in YT about our provinces but you have to know the pronunciation of the provinces and capitals is very American and therefore is not really uhm correct. But it's cute, hahaha.
Mikey Bustos have a rap battle, so yeah...
The vowels of Filipino languages are almost the same as the vowels in Spanish. Ignore the long [A], [AE], [EY], [OW], vowels, and the [UH], etc., in the song because those are not the way locals will pronounce them. Remember to use short [O] (as in "or" and "more") a lot without putting a W at the end of it. Malaybalay is pronounced as [MAH-laih-ba-laih], not [meh-LEY-b'-LEY].
I’m living in Camarines SUR😊
Next react Indonesian Provinces from Kids Learning Tube
✌️😃🇵🇭 The pronunciations of the names of the provinces (and their capitals) of the Philippines in the video you watched are mostly incorrect due to the American English pronunciations and accents that the video content producers understandingly have.
The best way to pronounce these names (except for English words like "City" or whatnot) is at least with neutral Latin American Spanish pronunciations and accents aside from with the various, varied, and diverse, but closely similar and almost the equally the same Filipino pronunciations and accents throughout the Philippines among the native, indigenous, local, regional, or autochtonous languages and dialects of the Philippines, including the Philippine or Filipino Spanish dialect, language variety, or language variant, and their pronunciations and accents.
7 wonders of the Philippines
Provinces - Unitarian
State - Federal
Most of this places have North, East, South, and West in their name--derive from Latin and Spanish words Norte, Oriental, Sur, and Occidental respectively. Indeed, as I googled, the language known today as Spanish is derived from a dialect of spoken Latin, which was brought to the Iberian Peninsula by the Romans during the Second Punic War, beginning in 218 BC, and which evolved in central parts of the Iberian Peninsula after the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the fifth century. Hence, our colonizers spoke Latin and Spanish.. In conclusion, the Spanish language today is different from our colonizers. Thank you for the education Felix Flaus. Latin is not Spanish, yet Spanish is derived from Latin. 🙌
False. norte, este, Sur, Oeste
@@lisab1247 Oriental and Occidental is derived from LATIN.
@@lisab1247 LATIN is not SPANISH.
@@lisab1247 Can you comprehend?You generalized occidental and oriental with norte and sur as spanish. Those two words are english derived from latin Occidens and Oriente. Do you really read my reply? I'm referring to Occidental and Oriental as words not derived from Spanish.
@@firefoxcodex15 i do not need your reply. I understand you completely.. Through your reply, I have learned that our colonizers' language was not the Spanish language today. As you indicated that the words above were Latin and Spanish words. Yet, most Spanish words derived from Latin and Greek. Furthermore, Castilian Spanish is different from Spanish language. Thank you for your input. You are absolutely right that, Latin is not Spanish, yet Spanish is derived from Latin. I am thankful I have learned something new. ✌
Luzon,Visayas,Mindanao im a filipino im in iloilo city

They are not the flags but the seal of Province.
Occidental = west
Oriental = East
That song got me😄😭😁
History of Philippines reaction
Geezus H Christ. For an educational video, one would think the creator would look up how to pronounce the names of the places before singing at the top of their lungs. But nah, so now we got meyleybeyley.
The pronunciation of the places is odd coz that's not how Filipinos pronounce it. Example: Malaybalay in Bukidnon. It's not Muh-Lay-Buh-Lay but Mah-Lie-Bah-Lie. What we spell is what we speak and we speak words by syllables: Bataan is Bah-Tah-An
Lol meleybeley
Province = County .. i think thats easier for American to understand
Our alphabet is phonetically consistent. So how they pronounce it in a song is a little bit inaccurate.
It is more than just a little bit inaccurate, it is quite wrong.
Can you React to Oplan Exodus SAF 44 Documentary
The people who made that video should have included proper pronunciation in their research. I was cringing the entire time.
They Are American and Not Filipino so thats why the Pronunciation is Wrong on some Provinces
Some of the Cities and provinces are pronounced wrong
I thought PHEZZ is a Mexican...why he didn't even know that most of the Province name in Philippines has a Spanish name and the Occidental and Oriental names are common words used by Spanish speakers.
ik that these are americans singing but the disrespect saying “ailoilo” its just iloilo.
Occidental = west
Oriental = east
del Norte = north
del Sur = south
This is the first time I have listened to this song and it's nice and fun but dang my ears hahaha they're pronouncing everything wrong clap clap clap for the effort though haha
The singers are not Filipino and they sounded like American.They pronounced it wrong...For example Pasay City but they read as Pesey...But around of applaused for the effort they did...
I don't think provinces here have their own flags. If they did, it would have been part of our curriculum.
