You will sound like a poet if you speak pure Tagalog.🤣🤣

A big percentage of Filipinos are multi lingual as most of us speak our own dialect plus the official language which is Filipino (Tagalog) and English.

Fun fact: In Philippines if you're from the lower parts of the country you can learn at least 3 languages.

The Philippines have at least 180 languages such as Tagalog, Kapampangan, Bisaya, etc. In everyday communication, it's normal to speak Taglish especially if we forgot the Tagalog word we will just say it in English. That's for my point of view.

We speak Tagalog English because Filipino language have very deep meaning in general, and their certain translation in English words that we find it was easy to say, many Filipinos get used to mix Tagalog and English in speaking because this are our Official Language it's the manner of communications that we grow up with. Before Filipinos are more fluent in Spanish than in English during Spanish Colonization.

pilipino speak taglish. always... it conbines 3 language . tagalog, english and spanish.

It's an awkward moment for us bilingual to realize that We are Actually Bilingual. It's funny tho

snay na talaga tayo sa language na TAGLISH!!!as long as nag kakaintindihan lahat ng tao at masaya sila sa modern communications its okiii!!!.

There are so many tourists visiting and living in the Philippines in the first place. Eventually,if Filipinos don't know the language they can't communicate to different nationalities. We can't deny the fact that we sounded smart if we knew the language so well. Another fact is, during a job interview the questions are all in English so we have to respond in English as well. Because there is this policy if you answer the English question in Tagalog,or another language,more or less you have low chance of getting the job. That's a sad reality but we also make use of English for our living,like working abroad or teaching non English speakers.

They forgot the Bisaya and Mindanao Filipinos not only they speak English and Tagalog but also they have their/our own local languages

You guys are so enthusiastic in your intro that I love it and makes me want to watch your videos.

Well, Filipino is based on Tagalog dialect, which is spoken in Central Luzon where Manila is. When you get out of Central Luzon, locals would be speaking another language/dialect. So basically English is the language that bridges the gap among locals who speak diff languages and dialects. Also, when you go out of Metro Manila, other Tagalog-speaking locals can speak Filipino fluently, unlike most young people from Manila. It is okay to speak Taglish in informal situations and in conversations with family or friends but it is still considered a no-no at work or other formal settings, where you're expected to communicate fluently in either one or both languages.

Very interesting topic

English is our second language..that's why we speak taglish.

I am an Igorot and I live where Ilocano is the common tongue of many different dialects and we all know how to speak Tagalog but are more fluent in English. Most of the times it's even harder especially when my browser is in tagalog... Oh it's so damn hard. But we usually intermix languages so sometimes I use all four languages in a single sentence. Adak ammo ngem kasla okay lang siguro kasi hindi ko naman feels as if ada ti madi... Kasjy.

Proud filipino😊 New subscriber of yours😉 Thanks guys😘

Oo naman!

Before finishing the vid I do agree most of us is not that fluent in our own language because we consists of many dialects and languages and some of us focused on english only and most kids nowadays doesn't even speak tagalog anymore its more of english or slang but before especially in early 80's and back we are great at our language even the deepest words. As a teen filipina I'm proud to say I know my language I can understand and converse in English and I'm proud of my dialect/language in our province, Unlike in our province we actually do study our language and speak it always at the same time knowing Tagalog and English.

Dami ko na nakikitang ganitong mga content. Reacting to Filipino food, culture,ect. Tayong mga Pilipino makakita lang na word na Philippines click na agad tayo. Masyado tayong nao-overwhelmed pag pinupuri tayo ng ibang lahi pero yung iba ginagawa lang yun dahil kikita sila.. pero not all

The Filipino language is consist of mixtures of local language and Spanish and English but with English mostly borrowed words and we changed the spelling of the word to match it with of Filipino alphabets. I am not Bilingual but i am a Trilingual HAHHA i leaned my first at home and just by ear i was like 1-3 i went to school at 3 so i learned Filipino and English there and Now i am learning my 4th language

Guys new subscriber here. I'm a Filipino here in Manila.

It is about how you divide yourself and have a different identity like if you are inside the school or you are in a foreign country you can speak english coz that is we use for global communication. After that when you are inside the house or in your local small community speak your local dialect simple as that. If you are in manila speak tagalog if you are in bicol speak bicol dialect if you are talking to Burgess people speak taglish or fluent english see. Its up to you how you deliver your words to communicate.

Im a filipino living in Hk,and I saw a BTS poster at the back😍

It's difficult to speak pure Tagalog because we learned a lot of language.Usually we speak English but in other countries we speak Arabic,malay, Chinese and spanish that's why sometimes it's difficult to speak Tagalog..

I heard the last guy talking straight English free but , funny, it was really mixed with Spanish like saying "heneracion".

I think this interview was conducted only in NCR or in Metro Manila, and the people they interviewed were only youth or millenials and obviously a residence from that area. But I'm gonna be harsh. This interview feels kind of bias. If the personnel in this particular matter also conducting an interview to the other generation of humankind and they just don't get picky about the looks of the person they going to interview with, I'm pretty sure they got a Pilipino person who can speak Filipino language straightly. Well, let's see in the province area of the Philippines particularly in the Tagalog region if this is also a fact. The only thing annoying is when you hear that they cannot talk or speak a straight Filipino language but they can speak Taglish and they can also speak straight English, for me... That's WOW!

Most Filipinos are trilingual. They know a language from their region (mine's Ilokano), language spoken around the Philippines (Tagalog), and language spoken around the world (English).

Very true..we are bilingual being a filipina myself..we call this colloquial language(TAGLISH) a combination of our native tongue which is tagalog and english...we sometimes find it hard to express in pure tagalog..we find it more comfortable speaking/combining both languages...😊🇵🇭

The other reasons are If u travel outside manila specially southern islands Most of the tv station radio stations mall stores speak their local language..they only use filipino/tagalog when they are in school.

I speak 3 filipino languages plus english. Most filipinos are multilingual as well so it's just natural that we mix things up and go with the most convenient words and phrases.

In the Philippines , Widely and mostly used word along with your Tagalog sentence is “actually” “see” “thanks” “ok” And “SO” these words are fixed and cannot be easily removed in your tagalog sentence for some reason.

Full support

cool

In our country the tagalog language are mix english and Spanish

Philippines is Multilingual Country, we have 175 dialect, although our mother tongue is Filipino ( Tagalog) but in our society we used used English as our second language to communicate with foreign, at work, in politics or in business.. But in our culture or ind different provinces we use our different dialects. Than our mother tongue.. We are also easy adaptor of different languages in other countries... So you know that's why some of us don't speak our Tagalog ( Filipino) cause we choose to speak our own dialect to communicate with our local fellow's.

You can react also to: Filipino Teen Speaks 18 languages, Marlon Ramos. he seems fluent in all of the languages, amazing..

🥺 hindi talaga sya madali, lalo na pag medjo halo-halo na yung languages 😓 Filipino with some Spanish plus English and ilocano. Top into that Gay Linggo 😅

done subscribin....🧡🧡🧡🧡

ENGLISH is the MAJOR COMMUNICATIONS MEDIUM in all PHILIPPINE government sectors and in private business operations, besides in all educational institutions starting from kindergarten. English and Tagalog are the only tongues that ARE USED FOR CONVERSATIONS by Filipinos who speak different Filipino dialects (numbering over a hundred dialects) TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER. Except for Tagalog, English BEATS all the other Filipino dialects since English is being used by most Filipinos to do understandable verbal exchanges and information proclamations.

Please react to wakeup in the philippines

Yeah, it’s very hard. Even if in a casual talk with family or friend you can’t speak in straight filipino.

I am a true Pinoy and very fluent in Tagalog. I even know the very authentic old words that nobody use nowadays. If there is an all American guy, i am the all Filipino guy. Yes i can sound like a poet when speaking straight Filipino.

You should try eating at jollibbee

Why mixed...bec in school we once used to speak only english..upon arriving home we speak to our native toungue...the result is blended language...

If you will dig deeper in our Philippines history during under the Spanish rule our dialect was more of a spanish Creole. Combination of Filipino and Spanish language. But after the Spaniards left and America took over the Philippines our language again took another changes, this time with the so called TagLish a combination of Tagalog and American English. Which is still being use today. And i am wondering if what will happen if another country invade us?

That's was a real problem in our fellow Filipino here in because of many languages not only local languages but also some Asian language like Korean that influence in our speak that's why some of Filipino struggle to speak a pure Filipino and sometimes some Filipino they don't really don't know what is the of some Filipino word😑

Thats easy, look at all the products here in the philippines almost everything is written in English, From Food packaging to Instructions or manuals, as time pass by filipinos embrace more of what is than what was

When she said, “Only speak English” I felt that. My teacher flicked my ear. 🤦

Pwede kanayun na magtaram ka ti english nu gusto yu, depende tu situacion nu sain ka du namugtak, kadakul et variantes pano it tataramun ang pinot ed lingua franca, so iba, masakit id matarus ya masabutan, we can use taglish iti a depende nu swen kitadta comportable arya a magne

I think the interview was only focus on institutionalized youth or those people on the middle and upper middle class of society. Maybe you also have done that to the lower and marginalized communities, they can speak Tagalog fluently.

Most pinoys .speak tagalog but also dialects for every province

Try to react wake up in the Philippines

I barely speak tagalog since we live in southern most part of the country we speak Visayan dialect and english... honestly its hard for me to talk in tagalog 😂

I speak tagalog, english and spanish

Pure Tagalog is different from Filipino, which is really mix of 3 main languages.

Example its hard to speak pure tagalog because ur alrady working and need to study english pure tagalog is hard so u use taglish so if ur going to say pure filipino and dont remember it just use english

I remember when I'm in high-school the school rules must speak English and we only speak tagalog if filipino subject.

Because the only MAIN reason would be ENGLISH subject has always been part of our curriculum from Nursery to College. Because compared to other countries, they only have the chance to leaen it if they voluntarily enroll themselves to special classes or programs since English isnt part of their curriculum. But here in the Ph, it is. And to add, signages and official/legal documents are akk written jn English, majority of local mainstream media are also in English, even the simple MENU from stores and restaurants are in english, it's RARE to find a document or anything in Filipino/Tagalog not unless you ask for it. The teachings in most schools are in english, except for the FILIPINO subject. HISTORY subject is taught in Filipino but History in college/universities are in english. There are super hard words in Tagalog especially numbers (MATH) that can only be taught in english for easier understanding. The diverse word-play like makes Filipinos grasp the idea of TAG-LISH way of speaking. Because even if you dont get proper education, we arw surrounded by the english language in our country, and it's almost rare for someone to now know any English words and mix englisg and tagalog when speaking.

most filipinos are tri-lingual or bi-lingual. we learn english from school, TV, newspapers, social media and everything in government are in english. some may not speak english very well, but they will understand it. we also speak at least 1 of our 175 dialects, plus the tagalog language.

I am from the North and I know 5 languages. My Mother's Ethnic dialect is "Tuwali" My Fathers's Ethnic dialect is "Ayangan" "Ilocano", as I am from the North "Tagalog/Filipino", our National Language and "English", our second language.

🇵🇭

Well all of the people who got interviewed here are in younger generation, so I don’t expect much on them when it comes to speaking filipino language fluently. They already grew up in the influence of people on social media who thinks that using taglish is cool or whatever. They’re also in the city which where the taglish speaker are rampant than the province. You can easily find someone who speak fluent in tagalog or english in rural places in the Philippines.

mix.tlga tayo

Merong mga salita sa Pilipino na mas madaling bigkasin o ipaliwanag sa salitang Ingles lalo na sa malalalim na salita. Tulad ng pagbibilang ng mga numero sa Tagalog. Maiksi ang pagbaybay sa Ingles kesa sa Tagalog, halimbawa; isa (Tagalog, 2 baybay) = one (English, 1 baybay lamang),o labindalawa (5 baybay)= twelve (1 baybay)… kita mo ang pagkakaiba? O kaya ay salitang “mag-alala” (4 baybay) na pag sa salitang Ingles ay 2 baybay lang, “worry”; bestida=dress; Pantalon=pants o jeans. Meron ding ibang Ingles na salita na walang katumbas sa Tagalog, kagaya ng Hello, atbp. Phew! Think my nose bled on that lol! 😅😂

Philippines have so many languages , did you know that only bridge separate language

We combine Spanish, Tagalog, English every time we talk

Well in truth, I'm born pure Filipino blood but I can't and don't know many Filipino words bc I haven't heard of it or it's maybe bc, I'm used to speaking English

filipino,trilingual espanTaglish,espanol,tagalog/filipino,english👍

PHILIPPINES ❤ 🇵🇭 ❤ 🇵🇭 ❤ 🇵🇭

Asian Boss did other videos on this subject too. Such as Can Koreans speak in pure Korean? Can Japanese speak in pure Japanese?

here in province we can speak pure tagalog

Filipino got 117 dialects meaning 117 tribes pilipino is one of the tribe

I can speak 5 languages, Tagalog, English, Bisaya, Ilocano, Pangasinan or pangalatok, My mother speaks Bisaya, my father speaks tagalog, we live in Pangasinan where Pangalatok and ilocano are the 2 main dialect spoken.

Kids nowadays are english speakers.some kids can not even understand filipino now.

Visit philippines

Yes really I can't speak fluent Tagalog Everytime I talk to anybody .always taglish

Bait

Mas mabuti pa mga bisaya magsalita ng full tagalog, juskoooo! 🤣🤣

Tri lingual here 🤣

That's true even a lot of Filipino aren't speak straight Tagalog

We lways speak taglish and spanish. And its very hard to speak pure tagalog.

The video is a good representation of the reality of the language in the Philippines because the average age of Filipinos is between 25 and 30 years old. As a result, the majority of them are Millennials. There will come a time when speaking in pure Tagalog will only be heard in cultural events.

Please react "One Sweet Day Cover by Katrina Velarde, Bugoy, Daryl, and Michael" please please please 😭😭😭

The northern part of the.philippines speak english at almost 80 percent

Because Philippines 🇵🇭 was colonised by the Americans 55years ago

Prabhu Gaur Gopal at House of Commons @ 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I think, I would say 40% of Filipino can speak in English fluently. 30% are the trying hard. Just like me. and the last 30% those people who are very good in Tag-lish. A filipino Modernized languages. ( After spain left the Philippines in 1898.) They speak in tagalog at the same time they manage to mix the English words and some sort of Spanish Language in order to speak straight or continuously without pausing. That is why most filipinos prefer to speak Tag-lish than a trying hard. Trying hard people they can speak fine in English but, in a Slutter way. They called it, English Carabao. But, unfortunately for those 40% who could speak fluently they also started from being trying hard. Ibig sabihin lang nyan na experienced din nila ang mag Nose bleed.

S fliptop emcee tanungin nyu s sent lukes o kya s sayyad pure tagalog talaga

Ako na kayang magsalita ng english, tagalog and Spain language

😂😂😂i saw myself bieng a filipino that can speak multilingual its very dificult to fucos on one language we filipinos knows that we have two language we spoken in this era😊

As a Filipino who has 3 other minor dialect to speak a City talk and Filipino/tagalog, I'd rather converse in English.

I'm think Filipino people to talk English cause Filipino always use humor that I'm think I'm Filipino to eneed to love our nationality I'm think I'm right but many Filipino people can't speak English 90 percent

It's normal for a Filipino to be multilingual me myself I speak Ilonggo English Taglish Spanish Cebuano Portuñol
