When I visited Sumatra (I'm Filipino American) a few years ago they kept greeting me with "salamat pagi" which is Good morning I think. But in Tagalog it sounds like "Salamat, pogi" which means "thanks handsome" lol I thought they were complementing me hahahah 😂

I am from the Philippines working in Indonesia, I speak both languages, and its funny how many words are similar between The Philippines and Indonesia. And added to that, the Hospitality of both Nations are tremendously warm. I love both Countries

I'm a Filipina and my boyfriend is from Indonesia :))) I love it whenever I hear words familiar to me when I was in Indonesia :D

Indonesia -- Philipines -- English Kanan = Kanan = Right (direction) Lima = Lima = Five Mahal = Mahal = Expensive Mata = Mata = Eye Sakit = Sakit = Illness Bawang = Bawang = Onion/Garlic Belimbing = Belimbing = Starfruit Bola = Bola = Ball Buaya = Buwaya = Crocodile Dinding = Dingding = Wall Gunting = gunting = scissors Guru = Guro = Teachers Hotel = Otel = Hotel itik = itik = Duck Langit = Langit = Sky Mangkuk = Mangkok = Bowl

Filipinos and Indonesians have so many similarities in language, culture, values, and way of life. Apakabar Indonesia!

We Filipinos love Indonesia! Do peace not war

We Indonesian actually also used "Ulap" as Cloud. But it's a really really old malay language. we usually found it written in old kingdom scripture or folklore.

The Indonesian guy seems so nice. Filipinos, Indonesians, Thais, and other Asians are really brothers and sisters from different lands.

The Indonesian guy is actually pretty rational with his thinking process. Even myself as an Indonesian I would not have guessed some words correctly. Pretty well done

both Malay language (indonesian and malaysian) and Philippine languages belong to AUSTRONESIAN language family. so it means, they are all related and had 1 ancestor

Indonesia: “Selamat!” (Congratulations) Filipino: “Salamat!” (Thank you)

I Love Philippines From Indonesia Indonesia and Philippines Best friend

The voice indonesian man it's so smooth and tender

We are brotherhood, we have so many similarities, love Phillipines from your brother here, Indonesia 😘😘😘😘

sinta *Filipina* cinta *Indonesia* This is so cool for Philippines and Indonesia brothers and sisters. 🙂 *acu cinta indonesia* 🇵🇭

2007 to 2011 I (I'm Filipino) worked in Malaysia with Indonesian.. Its funny bcoz i mixed Basaha Melayu and Bahasa Indonesia when talking to both Malaysian and Indonesian.. Ooh I missed Malaysia and I missed my Indonesian friends..

I'm a Filipino in Holland and as people know Indonesia was colonised by Holland so I eat a lot of Indonesian and Malay food(they eat bami and nasi here and call egg rolls Loempia like how filipino and Indonesians call it lumpia) , its similar so I'm used to it now, and we have quite a lot of Indo and Malay people here so sometimes we call each other brother and sister... Its so cute ❤️

Several years ago, my work situation brought me to Indonesia and stayed there for several years. I learned that Indonesians and Filipinos have a lot of things in common - language, culture, food, habits, etc. People to people interaction between Indonesians and Filipinos are not as much as Indonesians and Malaysians and Singaporeans. But the similarities between the two peoples are so apparent and as a Filipino, i can easily connect with the ordinary Indonesian. Indeed, both belong to the Austronesian language family. Anyway, very nice video. I understand Bahasa Indonesia and your video helps bridge peoples. Thank you.

yall Firman's voice is very calming and very soothing am i weird?

Tahanan in Filipino is home. I think in Indonesian it means jail.

That indonesian guy is handsome.

This is really so cool. Didn't know that we have so many similarities with Indonesian language.

This is so crazy! Mata also means eyes in Fijian and Samoan, and Lagi or LagiLagi also means sky or heavens in Fijian and Samoan and Tongan.

Buwaya in Filipino is politician

Indonesian, Filipino and Malaysian are brothers..

in filipino, buwaya also means a senator or congressman ( or anybody who wants to take everything.)

the filipina is so adorable 💜 girl crushh

The language in the Philippines has many words in common with the tribes in Indonesia, especially the northern part of Eastern Indonesia. But I think, there are some similarities with my tribe although not many. Susu/suso = breast = My tribe. Susu/suso = breast = Philippines. Susu = Milk = Indonesian (The dominant word used). Susu = Milk = Māori. Susu = Milk = Sāmoan. Susu = Milk = Malay. *Example:* _Masakit ang suso ng ina._ - Philippines. :)) _Mesakit suso ina._ - My tribe. _Bumili ako ng niyog at tatlong manok para sa ama._ - Philippines. _Ngmili ako niyoh & tetlo manok tipa ama._ - My tribe. Sorry if there are mistakes, I'm just learning. Greetings from the southern part of Eastern Indonesia, neighboring Western Australia.

Mabuhay to our Indonesian Brothers!!! Filipino and Indonesian/Malay belong in the same language family which is Austronesian. Most non-asian people would vote Filipino, Indonesian and Malay to be the most beautiful Asian Languages. Viva las islas Filipinas! Viva Indonesia!! 👍🇵🇭🇮🇩

Magkawangis ang dalawang wika. Nakawiwiling panoorin ang palabas na ito! 😊 (The two languages are similar. This video was interesting to watch!) Hello to our Indonesian brothers from the Philippines! 🤗

I never know Indonesian this similar with Fillipino! Thanks for the video...

The Indonesian guy is a looker. 😊

Pinoy, indo, and other malay are brothers, i agree with this 💯 percent

When I met Filipino, she asked my nationality. After she knew that I am Indonesian, she said "I thought you're a filipino like me!" What 😅

Just found this channel and I love playing along on both sides,as my tagalog's vocabulary never went past that of a 14 year old's. So Kumusta to all the Pinoy's here and Apa Kabar to all the Indonesians.

I think the Filipina and Indonesian would make a cute couple?? haha

I am so enjoying this video, its interest and motivated me to learning philipines language.. love from sulawesi island - Indonesia💙💙

Peringatan in Indonesia is warning or be cautious or be careful. In Philippines the root word is "INGAT" or "MAG INGAT" or "INGATAN"

Thank you for the time and effort you’ve put into these videos. They are so informative and helpful for anyone that would love to know more about our Asian culture and other cultures. I appreciate this so much!

I have no idea why I find this entertaining to watch.. I thought filipino was a totally different language from Indonesian. It's fascinating to know that both languages share a lot of similarities. I am Indonesian by the way

Mahal = Love is Expensive XD

when I was in the indonesian island of batam, I saw the word "kurangi" in the road signs when I was driving and it is very similar to the cebuano word kulangi which means reduce so it basically means reduce speed sign on the road...

I hope we get to have an official language in South East Asia other than English so we could communicate with each other the way we used to communicate back in the old days. That would be wonderful, going back to our roots.

if we were not colonized by spain and other colonizer and didnt impose their culture to us, were just an indonesian and malaysian decent!

I dont know but I really like the way he laughs (indo guy)

That Indonesian guys is Hoooot! ❤️

No wonder when I visited Manila for a few days, I was so confused because I felt like I'm home listening to bahasa but when I really listen to the words of people around me I don't understand anything 😂😂 it's familiar and foreign at the same time. Turns out we do have the same roots. Wish I wasn't so ignorant... but hey! The more you learn everyday!

Im from Pakistan 😂 even i don't know both languages, why still I'm watching 😁

Filipino maintained the original Proto-Austronesian voice system (like 99% of the Philippine languages did), but the Sunda-Sulawesi languages like BI and BM greatly simplified that system. That’s why some words may seem convoluted to BI or BM speakers because they fail to see the root word. For exp. takot/natatakot/natakot/tatakutin/tinatakot/matakot/matatakot/kinatatakot etc. Part of retaining that voice system also means that Filipino loves linking-words and articles which it employs in complex ways. All of this serves to deepen the barrier in intelligibility. But a Filipino speaker, coming from a language that has preserved the original voice system would probably find it easy to string isolated words together to make a coherent sentence in BI and BM but not vice versa. I think a good example is Filipino: Natatakot ako sa mga buwaya. Indo: Aku takut sama buaya (sorry if that is wrong). English: I am scared of crocodiles. To a Filipino speaker that BI sentence sounds almost obvious because it’s almost like how a child would speak when first learning to speak. But Filipino’s use of reduplication in conjugation and its love for articles might throw off a speaker of BI.

gw pernah pas di singapur denger orang pinoy ngobrol gw nahan ngakak soalnya lg ngantri depan gw. kadang klo mereka ngbrol itu ky campur basa jawa, sunda, padang. bberapa kata ada yg sama tp mgkn beda makna dan itu yg bikin kocak. 😂

I'm Malaysian with a Filipino boyfriend, and I was in on this trying to guess Filipino words. I've been learning Spanish as well, which made it a bit easy(not that much), it was a fun video to watch!

Indonesian has similarities in language with Dutch, Arabic, Malay as well.. I'm from Jakarta, Indonesia ❤❤

At last the two major Austronesian languages was featured just as we requested! Thanks. This calls for a part 2, indeed. Some of the Indonesian words are still in used in other Philippine languages. If one could notice, Filipino grammar heavily use affixes and prepositions to express specific time or situation which heavily modify root words they're almost unrecognizable to untrained ears. While Bahasa Indonesia is more simplified it kinda sounds like a pidginized Filipino (we call it Barok na Tagalog), that way, the cognate words are easily recognizable.

I was planning to learn Bahasa from Filipino. This motivated me even more to learn the language. :)

Visaya a name of a region at philipphines, it's sound like wijaya (from sriwijaya?). Yah we are nusantara (a wide archipelago from madagascar to rapanui easter island, it called austronesians). 😀 great love to east java:)

Firman why you so adorable:(

How the way she look's the Indonesian guy... Is adorable... Maybe she'll fall in love with Indonesian guy...

Filipina punya suku yg tinggal Di Indonesia, tepatnya Di di desa bantik kab bolaang mongondow timur Sulawesi Utara, bahasa suku bantik dan mongondow mirip sekali dg Tagalog

Indonesia guy is cute lol hehe.

when I was a fan of zboys and zgirls, I just found out that Indonesia and the Philippines have similar words. like "mahal kita" in the Philippines it means "I love you" But if interpreted in Indonesian, "mahal" is expensive and "kita" means us. And I learned a lot about similar words between Indonesian and Filipino. Like, gunting, dinding, pintu, sakit, haus etc. It was so fun, bcs i much learn other countries language🤩🥰

'Guro' in Filipino which also same in Indonesia 'Guru' means TEACHER.

Remember, Indonesia and The Philippines are also very close to each other... especially Sulawesi and Borneo (Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei) and Palawan, Sulu and Mindanao (Philippines). Before Colonization and the divvying up of the Islands, I'd imagine there were a lot of commonalities as well as features unique to each Island.

Bandera-Bandila= Flag/Banner. Indo-Filipino. Love from the Philippines!

Nice video, it can helps us to know the similar word between indonesia and philipina and with other country. I like your channel, it show us if many languanges in the world are same.

Indonesia has BATAK people in North Sumatra and the Philippines has indigenous people also called BATAK and has a city called BATAC.

The Indonesian guy is so charming :)

Warm regards from Indonesia 😄. I'm happy to know that we have this similarities, ohh by the way i love the girl on that video her smile is just so sweet

Didn’t know Indonesian have many similarities with Filipino until I watched this video

Wow. Filipino language is amazing. I've watched the comparison of the Filipino language with Spanish, Chinese and now Indonesian and everytime the Filipino girl understands most of these 3 other languages. And don't even mention English, they're good at it too. Just awesome. It's a mix of everything- it would be easier for them to learn other languages. And to think that the other 3 languages being pitted to Filipino are not similar to each one and yet... Amazing.

Finally Indonesia with Tagalog yeayy

In Khmer language for witness is “Saksai”

this is cool, i was actually playing along and trying to guess the indonesian words as i watched ^^

Hi, Bahador! Might I suggest something? You could make speakers of some regional Filipino languages square off with an Indonesian speaker. I'm positive speakers of Ilocano, Kapampangan/Pampango and Cebuano will find a lot of similarities in Indonesian too. :-)

Just stumbled spin your channel doing some research on my Filipino heritage. Love to see how the languages around the world are so close together

I love it , it is really educational to know how the these two countries are connected

I subscribe, thanks for this content, love from PH

Awesome video. As a filipino, I feel closer to Malaysians and Indonesians. I Consider them as my next of kin, because I always get mistaken for either lol. I remember when My friends and I went Jordan and Morocco. The arabs thought I was either Malaysian or Indonesian.

As a filipino citizen, the way she says the words are cute.

From now i know, Indonesian and Filipino have similar language, thx for all you guys to make this videos 🙏

So proud of our race, im indonesian

I have a friend from filipina. He can understand when i speak bahasa, but i can't understand when he speak tagalo. And since i met him, i understand filipinas use bahasa in their language

Firman is cute! 😊

I like this 👍 well done. In filipino linguistic studies, we use the native austronesian language as root words for natural and cultural stuff like from here sky, fire, child, and most native and things given by nature and way of living. But for foreign and mad made objects we use more of the latin-spanish words.

Oh my gooshh same words!!.my daughter's bestfriend is from Indonesia, and we're Filipinos..and were friends with the parents too, theyre good people..

Great, thanks bahador ☺️✌️🇮🇩✌️🇵🇭✌️🇮🇩✌️🇵🇭✌️🇮🇩✌️🇵🇭✌️🇮🇩 Hallo Philippines

the indonesian guy is so cute

This is where it all started! They are both very pleasant...all smiles! Love it!

Laughing is katawa (Filipina) is ketawa (Indonesia)

Kapampangan language in the Philippines and Bahasa Indonesia is quite the same also. We used also -u instead of -o like batu, payung, aku, etc. Especially numbers, we're almost the same.

Actually Easy to learn filipino language Im from indonesia. And my ex is filipino, and I have friend also. Sometimes we argue about this 🤣

this was fun to watch. and you can smile more Bahador :D

I love this vdo. It makes me feel like doing a thai language vs laos. I bet we will get at least 89% of each other. But if it was northern Thai dialect vs Laos. It will be 100 %.

We have "Apoy" here in indonesia. It's a Madurase language (from Madura Island). The meaning is also Fire and "Api" in Bahasa Indonesia. Mabuhay Philippines! We're brother! Mahal kita!

I love your videos! I've always had an interest in foreign languages and have always wanted to be a polyglot.

I hope Indonesia will finally moved their capital to borneo (Kalimantar????) so that we could interact more often and visit each others place. Greetings from Philippines

Really enjoy watching this! from Philippines.

Love both from Malaysia....

We have word "balai" in Indonesian which I think cognates with the word "bahay".

This is a very good activity. I just chanced on this video while browsing through youtube (bless youtube!). Congratulations. And keep doing this. How I wish people keep their native language/s, wherever they go. Many languages are lost everyday and with their demise go old knowledge and philosophies. It is very good to learn other language/s aside from one's own; I myself would love to learn to speak other languages aside from the ones I use. BTW, until about 4 decades ago, majority of Filipinos roll their "R" when they speak. When people started to emulate - or maybe wanted to sound more sophisticated, i.e., western English-sounding (no offense meant), they've lost the rolling "R". This is common in the urban areas. If you go to the provinces outside Metro Manila (and outside of the big cities), going north to the Ilocos regions and going south to the Visayas and Mindanao regions where I am originally from, you will notice most people still roll their "Rs". Of course there are exceptions. Take for example in Zamboanga City in Mindanao and outlying areas where people speak Chavacano, a creole Spanish. Whereas the native Spanish speakers would naturally roll their "Rs" like in the words "pueRRta" (door in English) or "cuaRRto" (room), Chavacano speakers would say "pwerhta" or "kwarhto/kwarhtu" with the "r" almost silent. The same is true in most big cities. Anyway, again congratulations to you and your group.
