@yooringonghan8 жыл бұрын
@amihan99 -physical description of _piña_ - "not unlike mosquito barb [ _kulambo_ ]" -description of the _mestizo_ - "half-Filipino, half-something else"; technically though true enough since the term is generic in itself -physical description of the _kalabaw_ - "uglier than its tropical cousins" -"average peasant" -"Lady Nicotina" is quite offensive though, since it's not something a Filipino would name an offspring -Tondo as the "nipa shack (_bahay kubo_) quarter" - though not offensive, Tondo was and still is the residence of the masses; maybe symbolic of its pre-Spanish past as the capital of the Kingdom of Tondo

Meta Jack Vesalius since the Philippines was formerly a Catholic-majority Christian country, most of the pre-War population were _Catolicos cerrados_ ("strict Catholics", nowadays would be equated to the Traditionalist Catholics), and would in the aftermath of childbirth, immediately baptize the infant and name it according to which saint/celebration/feast it was on the birthing day in the pre-Vatican II religious calendar. Take Imelda Marcos for example. Her full name is "Maria Imelda Remedios Visitación Romuáldez y Trinidad". -after her birth, she was baptized in less than 24 hours or else it would be considered a hethen/pagan -of course, the Philippines has a great devotion for Mary, so somehow there'd be a smidge of "Maria" in females -I have no idea why her parents chose "Imelda" (Italian "warrior woman/universal battle/powerful fighter") -"Remedios" after her mother; pre-War, it was a common naming practice in Europe to have names from relatives, even from godparents -her birthday was on July 2, which is the feast of the Visitation of Mary to Elizabeth -the particle _y_ was commonly unique in pre-War Philippines, which followed Iberian style of naming (for males & unmarried women, "name/s" "father's surname" _y_ "mother's maiden surname"; for married women, it varies but commonly "name/s" "husband's surname" _y_ "father's/former surname"), but must have added it as to not confuse people of calling someone mistakenly by their mother's middle name

It is somehow trivial but it runs deep in our culture. Seeing that 1930's woman doing that gesture is fascinating. Now we have a hint that it already existed long before we took notice of it. I wonder if that gesture dates back even further? Even before pre-colonial era.

The Hacienderos who own lands as far as the eye can see, and the greedy politicians (many of whom are hacienderos). The landlords and people who toil in their lands are living in a system that existed in the middle ages. The only way to regain the soul is to remove the cancer which was stuck to us by the spaniards.

Mixed blood is not important. Our culture is mixed and we must claim that and be proud of it, imo.
