"BAHALA" will have different meanings depending on the words and expressions you add to it: Akong bahala - "leave it to me" Ikaw ang bahala - I'll let you decide bahala ka nga - i concede on the argument and decision is up to you bahala ka - do what you want to do bahala ka dyan - i don't care whatever you do / your decision will be your responsibility ipinagwalang bahala - didn't give much care/attention nakakabahala - worrying / troublesome / causing fear or stress

1. Sayang = feel sorry, unfortunate 2. Kilig = giddy feels you are elated if you see your crush, if you are rewarded by a very nice gift. 3. Gigil= if you can't stop touching, looking and teasing things that you wish you want to or have it closer to you or even want to owned it but life is quite unfair and unusual. 4. Oo nga= if you want to agree or disagree for something 5. Bagay= Fits well, suits well 6. Bawal= Prohibited 7. Diba= Isn't? or Right? 8. Subuan= serve you food on the mouth like a baby 9. Bahala Na= Let God Plan for it. Let God do the rest.. Bahala means ''Bathala'' or God.

A few criticisms... Diba, which is a contraction of the phrase hindi ba has an english equivalent in the word "innit" which is derived from cockney but is now commonly used by many native english speakers. The most important and useful Filipino word is the word "sige." This word can be used to end conversations that have gone a tad too long. It's a type of farewell. It's a casual way of telling people you don't mind when they ask you if they're bothering you. A whole chapter can be written about how many ways this word can be used. Then there's the word "ayos." This is a casual and friendly way of expressing being fine, an improvement of a situatio, when something that was broken has been fixed, or a return to equilibrium.

kilig to the bones is now in the oxford dictionary

Bahala was derived from Bathala which means "God". The expression used before is something like "god's will." It evolved over time to become bahala... At least that's what I remembered about the origin of the word when I was a kid.

"Diba?" is a contraction of "Hindi ba?" So it can mean "Right?" or "Isn't it?" 🙂

I also remember someone saying they like our "daw" or "raw" because it's such a very quick way of expressing what you say is something you heard from someone else. 😏

Gigil is that feeling deep inside when you wanna crush or squish something out of overwhelming cuteness or anger...

"What is more Filipino than overly riffing things that don't need to be riffed" 😂 YAS! This has to be said 😂

"Di ba?" Or "Hindi ba?" = "Isn't it?" Or "Right?" "Oo nga" = can mean "Yes it is" or "I know right" - It can be an answer to "Di ba?" Or when you are agreeing to what the other person says. Example: Question: Birthday niya bukas di ba? (It's his birthday tomorrow, right?) Answer: Oo nga. Bahala na = came from the word "Bathala" meaning God. The phrase "Bahala na" originally means "I leave it to God." Nowadays it can mean a lot of things depending on the situation. It can mean "come what may", " whatever", "take over" or "figure it out". Example: 1. Hindi ako nag-aral para sa exam. Bahala na. (I did not study for the exam. Whatever happens, happens) 2. Bahala ka na sa mga kapatid mo pag alis ko. (Take care/be in charge of your siblings while I am away.) 3. Question: Bakit ka galit sa akin? (Why you mad at me?) Answer: Bahala ka dyan! (You go figure out why.)

For me, GIGIL means when you nearly wants to bite / pinch someone in either positive or negative reason.

In Filipino and Tagalog; the Pronunciation, occasion and relationship between the people talking changes the meaning of the word. Just like the example word “gigil”. With lovers, it’s positive. But with arguing people, it means, “u drive me crazy that I can punch u in the face!” Filipino words and expressions are amazing! Proud to be Pinoy.

"Oo nga!" connotes several meanings depending on how the words are expressed in a scenario. Like, realizing it suddenly, or in saying you already know it, or I told you so.

The word "BAGAY" has two meanings in Filipino. If it's a noun, it means a "thing". While if it's an adjective, it means "it suits (to something, someone or anyone".

Thanks! :) 1:09 Sayang 2:27 Kilig 4:01 Gigil 4:37 Oo nga 5:30 Bagay 6:19 Bawal 7:10 Diba 8:18 Subuan 9:02 Bahala

Di ba? Is the contraction of "hindi ba" which means "isn't it?" Or "right?"

Let’s collaborate bro!

Actually, I also can't find an exact translation for "makulit". Because there is an obnoxious makulit, but there's also a funny/entertaining makulit, & an adorable makulit 💁🏻

Guys all these have equivalent english words except for subuan and bahala "bahala" -> "leave everything to fate" "sayang - >"missed opportunity" or "waste" depending on context "kilig" - > thrilled "gigil" is agitated or thrilled depending on context "oo nga pala" - > loosely translates to "oh yes, i forgot.." "bagay" based on how you are using it in the video means compatible. "bawal" means prohibited "di ba" loosely translates to "isn't it?" "subuan" loosely translates to "can have a bite of?, so i agree this does not have a single word equivalent.

There is an equivalent phrase in Nihongo for “Di ba?” It’s - Desu yo? Just like in Tagalog when we want to emphasize , we repeat the phrase - Di ba? Di ba?. Same in Japanese - we also say among my friends - desu yo? Desu yo?

For many years my wife was using the word 'kilig' to tease my daughters and they did not understand why it is so funny for her until I explained that it means 'giddy'. Kilig to the bones. 😁

The kilig word was added last 2016 which originated in philippines. You forgot "basta" which is the hardest filipino word to explain in english.

kilig is giddy, oo nga is a confirmation answer, bagay is perfectly fit, bawal is not allowed

gigil- at wits end ( if ur angry) i encountered the term “cute aggression” in psychology its somehow approriate description of gigil, although not direct translatn.

The word you missed could either be "sulit" or "sirit". In hiligaynon/ilonggo and bisaya there is that word "ambot" that's super versatile. I don't think there is a one-word equivalent in English for that.

sayang = "what a waste" (as an expression), can be a loss or a regret, or just simply a waste.

I don't know if you're familiar with the word "Pang-ilan". Haha. Anyways, I have never been able to translate it to english per se. We use it to specifically get like a person's/thing's rank/order in a list of things. E.G. "Pang-ilan ka sa mag-kakapatid" which we typically use on social occassions or when we try to make small talk. It is a notoriously difficult question to translate. I just don't say it or I end up asking like, "Are you the eldest?" instead. The closest translation I can think of is, " What is your birth order amongst your siblings?" A fairly awkward question to throw for a small talk so I just don't bother. But I do wish there is an easier way to say it. We also use it a lot when we want to have an idea on how much longer we have to wait for our karaoke song to come up (based on the number of songs that are still to play before our chosen song). I.E. "Pang-ilan ako/ Pang-ilan ang kanta ko". Lemme know if you know of an easier english phrase to use. 😁

1. Sayang = That's too bad! I feel lost. I feel awful about it. 2. Kilig = Romantic giddiness. Feeling giddy or floating. Feeling extra good. 3. Gigil = Uncontrollable or Irresistible Emotion to touch, pinch or punch someone. 4. Oo nga = "Yeah, right!" That's true. Of course. Right on! 5. Bagay = Suitable, Apt, Matching, It fits. 6. Bawal = It's not allowed, It's banned, It's prohibited. "Don't!" 7. Di ba? = Isn't it? 8. Supuan = Feed someone else. Put food in another person's mouth. Stuff it! 9. Bahala ka! = It's up to you. Do what you want. Whatever! Let it be.

To me the most important words are PO and OPO. There is just no equivalent yet it makes this world a better world

So many words on this list were used in a general term where in english counter part have different meaning. So yeah, I agree

"oo nga", is when u agree on something you'll say: "right, yes, correct". "l already know that" there could be a positive/negative feeling on it depending on who's said it or who she/he is talking to or whatever they are talking about: ( i already know that sweetheart)/ (i already know that why are you telling me again?). if i'm mistaken i'll stand corrected.

Some words in tagalog has double or more meaning like, mahal and bagay. Mahal= love or expemsive Bagay= compatible/compatibility or a thing/matter or solid

Two words come to mind: "Astig" (adjective or noun - sort of having the bravado to take on something that's daring). Another word is "Diskarte" (noun or verb, an individual's distinct style or approach to things). I thought these words are distinctly reflective of Pinoy traits.

Boondocks has also been in Oxford Dictionary for a long time now. It means Bundok in Filipino.

Bawal = forbidden Diba? = isn't it? Bahala ka = you decide Bahala na = come what may

I'm a Fil-Am, born & raised in Bacolod (Ilonggo-speaking) till my teenage yrs, but lived in America for 35 yrs! These are what, I think, the English equivalents are for some of the Tagalog words on ur list: 1. Sayang = TOO bad! 2. Kilig = goosebumps (kind of?) 7. 'dì, ba? (contraction of "hindì, ba?") = "isn't it?" or "right?" 9. bahalà [na] = it's like saying, "Whatever!" Or, as Doris Day's famous song goes, "Que sera, sera...whatever will be, will be...!" *§* In another sense, like, "Akóng bahalà," it's like saying, "Don't worry, I got this"...aka, "I'll take care of everything!"

Bongga!!! is now in Oxford Dictionary too.

"OO NGA" FOR ME IS CLOSE TO "KINDA" "BAGAY" "MATCH" "FIT😁 "BAHALA NA" "COME WHAT MAY"😊

Sayang can also mean "what a waste" Kilig, the closest translation is giddy

im here in Chicago and im just looking for singers to be invited to our event next year. Piyesta Pinoy and i came across your channel and you are a good singer, but going back to this vid's topic, i never really noticed those words and yes not all words will accurately translate to English or to any language. Americans who haven't or never-ever traveled outside the country will never know what they are missing out.

Gigil - its like you want to do something but you cant. you want to kick your boss' butt but you cant, grrrrr kaka gigil.

I think ‘di ba’ is used when asking for a confirmation or asking someone to agree with you. ie: “Magaling siya’ng kumanta.... di ba?” or “He/she could really sing good.... right?”

Sayang is not actually exclusively Filipino, Malays/Indonesians use the same word with the same meaning 😌 it might be from our malaysian cousins originally. ❤️

Ah... "Sayang" I was told it can also mean "What a waste." Kinikilig gayang euphoria. Bawal gayang forbidden. Ah...gigil at oo nga at subuan hindi ko alam yun. Siguro diba gayang "ganon" meaning "like that" at bahala na gayang "whatever happens". Magaling! Masiyahang ito talaga. Salamat!

Sayang could be translated as ‘What a waste!’

oo nga is close to ... your right.

Kilig could be translated as excited or feeling of excitement.

Bawal means prohibited or not allowed, 'di ba? means, isn't it? or right?

Bahala is also another word for sagdilang or I don't know I'm new to tagalog/visayas

BAHALA KA has a lot of meaning depending on how it is said. "Bahala ka" in a sweet way means, it is up to you, surprise me. Bahala ka in an angry way means, "Whatever! Do whatever you want!". Bahala ka in an imperative sentence will be "Whichever way you want." Bahala ka na, the addition of NA also changes it to a responsibility meaning you are giving the responsibility to someone. And there is so much more!

Thank you ♥️🥰

"Di ba?" is "Hindi ba?". I think the equivalent of that in English is the Question Tags. Example: "He is good, isn't he?"

Sayang can also mean "too bad'. Example..." Aw I missed the bus. Sayang.'

I guess gigil is that temptation feeling or that feelings that you want to let out in an action. You cuddle and make a strong hug. You're gigil-ing. Lol

Sayang = lost or missed the chance or the opportunity Kilig = having the feeling with awe Gigil = excessive and/or dramatic attention to a person Oo nga = agreeing with one's opinion or idea or understanding Bagay = suitable, appropriate, compatible, matching, satisfactory propriety Bawal = prohibited, forbidden, enjoined, but all of which are not being enforced by the authority but just follow the ethical standards Diba = contraction of "hindi ba" = is not it or isn't it Subuan = to feed a person or to put something in one's mouth Bahala = let time or God tells or determines someone's destiny or the consequential circumstances someone will be facing in the future as a result of someone's action he/she did in the past.

"Diba" came from question word Hindi Ba? But this is a question to the one you're talking to but just confirming that you are correct in what you know,

I miss speaking tagalog🥺 language is poweful..where you can Express your feeling, show yourself and say things you want.

How many grafts have you transplanted?

kilig = (from an old song) how he makes me quiver or shivers or fangirling, i'm totally shipping these two

oo nga...yes it is, you're right

1sayang means - missed 2, kilig - flattered 3 gigil - eager 5. bagay suitable, compatible 6. bawal - anauthirized, not allowed, 7. Diba? Right? at the end of a sentence, 8 . Bahala, let it be, so be it, whatever,

Kilig also mean in English as thrilled or elated.

Oo is yes and nga here is used as justifying or emphasizing the subject that it is. Hehehe

Oo nga could be expressed as ‘Oh, that’s right!’ ‘I already know that!’ would be ‘Alam ko na yun!’ in Tagalog.

Oo nga is "Yes, indeed" . I think the closest and easiest way to translate it.

Sayang is like saying "what a WASTE"

There was an anecdote that a foreigner having a bus ride heard the driver saying “bababa ba?” and a rider responded, “bababa!” Astonished he was of the words that the driver and rider both understood with only same two-letter with different syllable counts.hehe.

Me sees my surname on the thumbnail: I guess I have to watch this.

Under rated video.

is there any chance in English where you can form a sentence using only 2 letters? In filipino for example: Bababa ba? which means "is it going down?" :)

My fave Tagalog word is "alanganin." It's a very versatile word. (literal meaning is doubtful)

next to apear... SANA ALL 😂😂

"Oo nga" is an expression composed of two words.

Hi @david dimuzio ,I am new here to your channel ,good day to you! If you feel GIGIL to someone who are trying to urge you , The first one is, Its something like you feel they are trying to provoke you that they makes you feel very angry. The second one is If you see a a little baby looking at you ,laughing at you ,It's something like you feel you like to hug her so hard ,kiss her so hard ,she makes you feel Gigil. SAYANG WORD it's something like you REGRET. You regret to be with a nice guy you let it go that you can never look back and get what you lost. And spoild left over food you can say SAYANG in other words WAISTING ,your wasting food . The other one SAYANG ,If you saw your CRUSH walking on the street and you wanted to get her name and phone number but you feel like being shy to get closer to her then you let it pass her ,then the word that puts on your mind is " SAYANG I'M SUCH A SHY GUY . SAYANG has more than one meaning in tagalog words

sayang= missed ,kilig=thrilled, gigil= aroused , oo nga=yes it is, bagay = compatible, bawal=forbidden, diba= isnt it, subuan=load, bahala=godswill

Can someone explain what "taray" means or the equivalent meaning?

The word BAHALA is actually derived from the word BATHALA meaning GOD.

Oo nga is like "i agree" or you confirm what the other person said

Talaga its easy to make a complement if you you don’t understand what their talking about in Tagalog its always work when my husband heard Pinay talking to its other and he would say talaga and they start laughing and asked him he speak tagalog ❤️

Kwan, kuwan = kunin mo yung kwan. Replaces the actual word if you forgot it. Very useful if you cant express yourself.

Bahala also means come what may di na?

bahala - is come what may, let it be oo nga - it's like someone is talking and you agree with what she or he saying like "yeah your right" or "yes it is thats true"

I think there's also a word Sayang in other South East Asian Countries. What country it is? We sang this song when i was in grade 8 but I don't know the country Here is the lyric- " Rasa Sayang He, Ra sa Sayang Sayang he"

Enjoy guys! 1. Sayang! or Sayang naman! 2. Kilig/kinikilig ako! 3. Gigil/gigil na gigil ako sayo! 4. Oo nga or Oo nga noh. 5. Bagay or Bagay na bagay. 6. Bawal. Or hindi pwede. 7. Di ba. Or Di ba? 8. Subuan or pahingi nga niyan. 9. Bahala ka jan. Or bahala na.

Sayang = Regrets. Kilig = Thrilled. Gigil = No real English equivalent. Oo nga = Oh, that’s right. Bagay = Becoming (becomes you). Bawal = Not allowed. ‘Di ba? = Isn’t it? Subuan = Spoon-feed. Bahala (etymology: Bathala) = God willing.

Kilig equivalent is actually goosebumps... in a romantic way... gigil is usually negative. So when you say Gigil it always means you’re frustrated/mad

A Visayan word or a Cebuano or Bohalono in particular "PUHON". It's like do you want to visit us this Christmas? The answer could be "Puhon malooy ang Ginoo".

When someone says ‘Bahala na’ is usually used when he/she is unsure of the task at hand and hope that it will have a good outcome. When someone says ‘And Dyos na ang bahala’ means, “I did all I could, it’s in God’s hand now”.

Is she your new lady , wow she's a good singer too

Bagay is material, compatible, suitable words for english

Sayang … I would use …”that’s so sad or bad …” Kilig …. Isn’t so much butterfly in the pit of your stomach.. but I would use “giddy” instead and I think it’s a good approximation of the Filipino word . And I agree with the comment about bahala ka na is from the word bathala so the meaning could be God is gonna be dealing with you … bahala na ang diyos sa iyo.. or I’m gonna be making the decision like a God would .. bahala na ako .. or ako bahala Gigil I would describe to be a strong urge and reaction to an emotion.

"pwede" also can make it on the list, which rougly means in English "might work"

Po ! Opo ! The most beautiful words ! On how you ?

Bagay is also Thing or A thing!

Diba is short for Hindi ba? Or isn’t it? In English

The word "kaya" as in "maganda kaya", in the 80s means you're not sure if maganda. But in 2000 it means the opposite which is you're really sure na maganda talaga.

Gigil is extreme feeling for adore or anger☺️

oo nga in english yes indeed！

I wish philippines has a tagalog word for cellphone type writer , and cellphone charger also ..

I saw you in voyerer of the seas cruises wanted a photo
