Kong hindi ka Tagalog,
do you feel competent na-mag converse sa wikang Pinoy?
In other words, if you are Visayan, Ilokano, Ka Pampangan, at iba pa…
are you comfortable conversing in Tagalog? :confused:
If you had a choice, anong language ang pili-in mo para ma intindihan ka sa iba?

Abakitba, this is a nice question.

I’m from Cebu and has many relatives in the Visayan and Mindanao area.
I am more comfortable in english(let’s say, fluent) than speaking tagalog.

I feel weird and awkward when I speak Tagalog. I don’t know why…:confused:

Ilocana ako pero i’m also comfortable speaking in Tagalog. it gets difficult lang kung nakakarinig ako ng malalalim na tagalog. when i worked in cabanatuan city, there were some words na di ko maintindihan…pero always willing naman mag-explain ang mga kaibigan ko dun kaya di masyadong problema.

When I’m in Pinas, Tagalog ang gamit ko unless kinakaausap ako in english…nakiki-english na rin ako. :wink:

Ako naman syempre mas comportable sa sarili kong lenguahe, sa bisaya kahit anong bakbakan ng salita syempre malalim o hindi parang nag aaway yong dating kahit sa telepono (ito’y ayon sa aking asawa) love ko parin gamitin kumbaga at home at palagay ka kahit anong sabihin mo, sa tagalog naman ingat ako kasi minsan yong nasabi mo iba ang magiging dating doon sa tunay na tagalog magsalita kaya nag iingat habang nagsasalita.

Para naman sa sarili ko mas mabilis ko ngayong na i-express ang ibig kong sabihin in nihongo, siguro nasanay din ako konti dito, pagkasama palagi ay Hapon syempre hindi ka titigil hangga’t hindi ka satisfied sa gusto mong iparating sa kanya, sa debate namin ng asawa ko sa huli sumasang ayon ako sa kanya or sumasang ayon sya sa akin, which is good :smiley: , hindi mapupunta sa away. Hindi talaga maiiwasan na walang debate na mangyayari dahil pinalaki ako na spoon and plate at sya naman ay hashi and tsawan.

ang nanay ko’y batanguenya kaya gamay ko ang tagalog. nakaka-aliw kasi noong nagtatrabaho pa ako sa pinas, kapag kausap ko ang aking boss, kinakausap ko siya sa tagalog. hindi ko alam kung bakit pero pakiramdam ko hindi siya kumportable. hehe. kahit ini-english na nya ako, tagalog pa rin ang salita ko. :smiley: (tigas ng ulo ko! hehe!)

pero dito sa japan, wala akong choice. dahil hindi ako marunong mag-nihongo masyado, kailangang mag-english (lalo na sa klase at kapag kausap ang mga nihonjin at ibang foreign nationals maliban sa pinoy). hala, napasabak! :stuck_out_tongue:

Tama po ang inyong asawa, observed ko rin eh:)

Ako po naman eh kung nasa pinas, karaniwan sa wikang pilipino ako nakikipag-usap though I’m not a Tagalog. Sa bahay man o sa mga kaibigan. Minsan halo din ang salita ko like tagalog-ilokano, tagalog-bisaya. And since I’m always overseas, siempre english at konti sa lenggwahe ng bansang napupuntahan ko.:cool:

Mestiza Japon pero marunong mag Tagalog.
How did you learn. Siguro magaling ka rin mag English.
Were you born and lived here in Japan all your life?
Do you feel more Japanese or more Filipino (dito sa Japan o sa Pinas)?
Meron ka bang kaibigan tulad mo, Japinoy?

Of course mas-koportable ako sa akong kaugalingong sinultihan nga mao ang pulong binisaya. Gimahal ko kaayo kanang maong pinulungan kay akoa man. I don’t have anything against Tagalog because it is one of the laguages of the People in the Philippines but I hate to call it a Filipino langauge. I am Filipino but I could not associate myself with that language it is not my language and will never will be. I treat Tagalog just like a Japanese language. Between Tagalog and English, I am more at ease with English than Tagalog.

Maraming Pinoy na gustong me Japanese or American passport.

Kaya pala marunong kang mag-Tagalog… swerte mo.

I’m fluent in Tagalog and English, but I think I can present my thoughts better in English, which I hope, is still the medium of education in the Philippines. Spanish in the Philippines died over a hundred years ago.

I’m proud that I’m fluent in more than one Pinoy dialect. Wish I could speak Nihonggo though.
How about you KATTY… would you like to answer the questions you asked me?
Thanks again.

Ako, Taglish ever since, kasi sa Pinas naman, or at least in the places where I went to school & work, Taglish ang salita. I’ve never really heard anyone speak straight Tagalog or Pilipino unless may contest sa pagtatalumpati sa school. Eh di ba lahat naman ng mga sentences natin may halong English words. Even something as simple as “Pupunta ako sa mall.” eh mall is an English word.

Nakakaintindi ako ng Waray, kasi Mama ko & relatives are from the Samar-Leyte provinces. I cannot speak it though.

I’m also quite fluent & comfortable expressing myself in English, dala siguro ng hilig ko sa pagbababsa. I speak & write as well as a native born English speaker.

Baka naman po itanong nyo pabalik sa akin kung anong ibig sabihin ng pang masa?
Ito ang sagot ko:
Magaling, hindi gaanong magaling mag English, mahirap, mayaman.
iisang salita ang nabibigkas, maraming salitang nabibigkas
Matalino o hindi gaanong matalino pero may pakiramdam para sa ibang tao
May malasakit sa ibang tao
Mas mahal ang iba kaysa sa sarili at higit sa lahat Pusong Pinoy!

Kasi ang case dito sa Canada mas guto pa ng nga pinoy na mag-englis ang nga anak nila kisa sa tagalog. Samantalang ang nga Chinese, Russian, spanish, italians eh marunong magsalita ng first language nila ang nga anak nila.

Like my BF’s friend the mother is spanish and the father is lebanese so spanyol ang salita ng ina sa anak; Arabic naman sa ama. In a way they learn, amazing how fast they pick up.It’s good to speak at least 3 or more languages.

Why ayaw mong matuto ng Tagalog ang anak mo? Is something wrong learning tagalog or are you not proud of tagalog language?

Coz i see it here that they don’t want (pilipino family) that their kids would learn tagalog, English you learn that in school. I want my child to speak my language (tagalog) my BF language w/c is arabic and french if he would learn to speak at least 5 languages i would be very happy.

By the way Jose Rizal wrote his opus in Spanish, never in Tagalog. So he probably meant something about that.:slight_smile:

I mean, Tagalog is not a Filipino language. It is fake. Filipino language is not just one but several languages which are different from each other.

Tagalog
Cebuano

Tatay ko from Ormoc Leyte, Nanay ko from Nueve Ecija(Ilukana).
Pero sa Manila ako pinanganak at lumaki, TAGALOG ang salita ko, hindi nila ako tinuruan kasi hindi naman ako intiresado, para sakin hindi ko na kailangan mag aral pa ng ibang lingguahe dahil hindi nmn kailangan, english lang at nihonggo kailangan eh.

Tagalog is not my language. I am not proud of it. Tagalog for me is just like English. It is a foreign tongue. :slight_smile:

Buti pa English kahit ka-level ng tagalog para sa iyo as a foreign tongue e tinuturo mo sa anak mo, so, proud kang matuto siguro ang anak mo ng English ano? Pero hindi ka proud sa tagalog, sounds like hate campaign for tagalog, while you claim that you have nothing against Tagalog…sorry but something tells me that you do…ne, gabby…di ka naman galit sa tagalog ano?

Tagalog is the official language

As the constitution stipulates, “Filipino” is the official language.
(The site quoted above mentions the same.)

Tagalog is a language or dialect Filipino is based on.
I know current colloquial usage treats the two as the same.
Actually almost no body mentions the word Filipino as a name for the official language.

Sorry for my strictness in usage.

Immorally fed
“Immorally fed” might be a harsh word but I know the sentiment.
A language is not something a state can force people to use, let alone create it out of nowhere.

As for my Tagalog, I knew all the words abakitba had asked and the words members used in this thread,(and I’ve known the famous inihaw/anyhow joke since I was quite young), but I am not really comfortable in writing Tagalog as you have already noticed.

By the way, I admire abakita’s honesty in asking the word right on the spot.
I tend to let it go even if I can’t get the meaning.

Hindi ako galit sa Tagalog. Galit ako sa polisiya nang bansa natin na ipakain sa amin na hindi Tagalog speakers ang wikang Tagalog at tatawagin pang Filipino language ang Tagalog. Ang ibig sabihin niyan yung Cebuano,Tausug,Iloka no at iba pa na hindi Tagalog ay hindi Filipino language. Ang nangyari kasi ngayon, ang ethno-linguistic group na mga Tagalista ang naghahari ngayon sa atin. If I am a Tagalog speaker, abot hangang langit siguro ang pride ko but since I am A PROUD CEBUANO I don’t take pride of Tagalog because it isn’t my native tongue. What I want is to abolish the national language policy and let Cebu Schools and universities to use Cebuano as a medium of instruction. Cebuanos are better English speakers because we give priority to English than Tagalog. English is better because we are in a neutral ground. No ethno-liguistic group in the Philippines owns it. Hope you are getting my drift.:slight_smile:

Everytime I am in Manila I use English. I only speak Tagalog to my friends and acquaintances. Ganyan ka-mahal ang Tagalog ko. Hindi ko ipinamimigay sa mga hindi ko kilala.:stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue: By the way Tagalog, Cebuano and Ilokano are the major languages in the Philippines. So they are equal. Dialect is if it is an off shoot of a language like Ilongo. Ilongo is a dialect that comes from the main Visayan language which is Cebuano. Cebuano is called Bisaya. Kapangpangan is not also a dialect it is a language.

Have you ever found any country without a national language? Puting-tainga is right, every country has its own national language and it is written in their own constitution.

I am proud to be an Ilocano, and more prouder to be a pilipino with a unified common language called “Filipino” or tagalog as coloquially said.

If ever ba na tinanong ka ng isang foreigner dito sa Japan sa kung anong tawag sa lenggwahe mo sa Pilipinas, sasabihin mo agad cebuano? I think most of us here in TF, ang isasagot is Filipino or tagalog.:cool:

Other countries which do not impose a national language policy are: Canada,Sweden,UK,Ind ia,South Africa,Spain and many others.

I will tell the truth of course but it is going to be a long answer. Usually I will say, the Philippines is a crazy country, we have so many languages and not just Tagalog.

Fake? There is nothing wrong with a country that has multiple dialects, but it is imperative to have a common language. How else could the citizens communicate with each other.

Are you saying that you have no problem with the English language, but you despise the Filipino(Tagalog based) language? You choose a foreign language over one of the native language. What were you saying about being fake again?

Tribalism is one of the main obstacles that Filipinos face towards achieving genuine unity.

I don’t quite understand why some tribalistic Filipinos tend to be more accepting of foreign language and culture, but loathe the other native cultures of the Philippines. The hypocrisy is appalling.:mad:

Why can’t we identify ourselves as Filipinos first, before being Tagalog, Cebuano, Bisaya, Ilocano, Kristiyano, Muslim, etc…? Why? Why?

The original settlers of the United States were primarily Germans, Dutch, English, Scottish, Irish, Swedish, French, Italians in the East Coast, and mostly Spanish settled the West Coast. Almost every ethnic group in Europe settled in what will become the United States of America. Despite of having different languages and cultures, the settlers developed a new culture based on the cultural backgrounds of the different settlers, which became the American Culture and English became the official language. They also identified themselves as Americans, rather than as Germans, Dutch, English, well you get the point. :smiley:

The present day Americans are getting more and more xenophobic, and they have every right to be, because most of the new immigrants tend to isolate themselves, instead of assimilating into the American society.

Multiculturalism is beneficial for a country, only if the different ethnic groups don’t isolate themselves from the others. The idea is about the “Melting Pot” NOT about the “Tossed Salad”. :slight_smile:

Ngayon ko lang nabasa ang thread na ito, puwedeng makisingit.
Heto ,maraming member ng TF na nakatira sa ibat-ibang parte ng Japan ,sa Kanto,Kinki(Kansai)T ohoku,Hokuriku, Kyushu,Chuugoku-Shikoku,Hokkaido,Lah at ng area ay may sariling mga"hougen"(dialect)but kahit na sino ang tanungin mo kung ano ang “kokugo”(language) or"hyoujungo"ang isasagot ay no other than “Nihonggo” I wonder kung mayroon nakatira sa Yamagata na magsasabing ang "hyoujungo"ay “yamagataben” or mga taga-Kansai na sasagot ang ang "kansaiben ay hyoujungo although popular ito lalo na sa T.V.

Nagkataon na ang Tagalog ang tinaguriang Pambansang Wika ,so what’s wrong with this? ,Hindi lang ang pilipinas ang maraming dialect.Kahit sa U.S. English nga but iba ang accent sa ibat-ibang states .
Wala ring masama kung hindi ka fluent magsasalita ng Tagalog dahil hindi ito ang nakagisnan mong wika .Tulad din ng walang masama kung magsalita ako ng “nihonggo” na may tono na makikitang Pilipino ako .Salamat po!

You said it yourself. There is nothing wrong indeed with a country having multiple language.

Tagalog is a fake national language for a simple reason that it isn’t the native tongue of all Filipinos. It does not represent me. I can do without the Tagalog language.

Like it or not, English is the world’s language… THE ‘lingua franca’.
Not all Pinoys are comfortable in Tagalog…
Incompetence in English (as a nation, a people, or a person)… may result in your economic peril.
About the only exception to this is the Japanese.
Anyone else who doesn’t have a solid command of English is in trouble.
Travel anywhere in the world and you’d expect to be understood in English (right or wrong).
I can only advise the Pinoys anywhere to sharpen their English skills.

Unfortunately this is not true in all parts of the world that English is the lingua franca! Go to Europe and experience to be snobbed by the Europeans when you speak in English…and you mentioned the Japanese people as the exemption to the statement you had given regarding the importance of English for economic prosperity. It is not only the Japanese but so many others (e.g, Spanish, Portugeese, Taiwanese, Koreans, French, etc are economically prosperous, so the use of English does not hold true for them!).
Most Japanese travel in different parts of the world without knowing a single word of English (except for Thank you) but they can still manage to enjoy the adventure and seldom they are in trouble! Most Pinoy know English and ironically, when they are travelling overseas they are always in trouble because they are Filipinos! So English skill is not the issue! YES it is important to sharpen your language skill but not necessary English because more people in the world speak Chinese (more than 1.2 billiion people), Spanish, French, Bahasa Indonesia, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, etc.):stuck_out_tongue:

Hi Saling Pusa, welcome to TF! Tama ka dyan, hindi Tagalog ang pambansang wika! Pero ang nalilituan ko ay…
Di ba dati Pilipino, ginawang Filipino, binalik sa Pilipino yata at binalik na naman yata ulit sa Filipino?
Binago na naman ba? :confused: So alin ba talaga mga ka-TF? P or F? :nuts:
FILIPINO kasi the F represents freedom to adapt and adopt! Kaya maraming words na integrated na sa ating FILIPINO language na hindi Tagalog in origin. Pati na yung mga Gay lingo kasama na rin (charing, charot, etc.).:eek:

Maligayang pagsapi sa Timog Forum kababayang Bond at Saling Pusa
Naway maging mapayapa at maligaya ang inyong pagtuloy sa TF
Naway magkaroon nang malusog na pagpapalit nang kuro kuro
Na may diplomasya, pagpapakumbaba, at pang-unawa.
Higit sa lahat ay ang pagsunod sa regulasyon ng Timog

Mabuhay!

“Wala pa …” so ibig sabihin HINDI PA integrated. Tsaka, pano naman kayo nakakasiguro na mai-integrate ang gay lingo at jinologs sa Wikang Pilipino? Tanong lang po. :slight_smile:

Tagalog ba or Filipino language? There is a big difference… Tagalog is the native language spoken by the Tagalogs and Filipino language is Tagalog-based with Chinese, Indian, Spanish, English, Japanese, Malay and other Filipino laguages in the Philippines spoken by most Filipinos. Our national language is FILIPINO and never TAGALOG!:rolleyes:

I stand corrected. Okay, Filipino (based on Tagalog) is one of the official languages of the Philippines. :slight_smile:

One of the cruelest jokes history played on the Pinoys…
is that our country is named after King Philip… or Felipe, hence Filipinas.
Pinoys are famous for flipping (pun intended) P’s and F’s! (Fees and ePs).
If Amerikanos had the Pampanga accent… America would be called… Hamerica.
Just an observation.
What do you think?

Hi Abakitba,

Long time no chat ha. Kumusta na?

Anyway, to comment on that joke, ang masasabi ko lang, at least the Philippines is named after a king, which is King Philip II of Spain, unlike the Americas, which is named after an Italian cartographer, Amerigo Vespucci.

Both were great men in their respective era, but we got the better deal in my opinion. :smiley:

I’m glad you brought this up, maybe I’ll start a thread to ask other members about alternative names for our country.

uhmmm…kung hindi ako tagalog siguro i`ll choose being a kapampangan, coz I am,kaso hindi nga lang ako marunong magsalita.

Siguro mahirap magsalita ng tagalog pag pure kapampangan ka sanay , pero sabi nga nila
“There`s no thing such as IMPOSSIBLE”…ngayon basta eager ka ay POSSIBLE…
Kung ang lalake nga nagagwa ng maging lalake eh (joke!)LOL

kaya konting tiyaga at faith sa sarili tingin ko matututo din ng tagalog.
And will be Confident to use it.
