WHat is the future of this strange and ugly slang ((personal opinion) from manila. Will it develope into a kind of creole??? like chavacano?? an english version of ermitano???

Its just that after a 4 year drought i recently saw 2 filipino movies and man listening to those people talk (as an english speaker) is embarassing.

they should learn English, English is an Official Language of the PI

& its kinda spreading to the provinces already

ill double the LOL XD~

have u guys seen those McDonald's "i'm lovin' it" slogans thats in different languages, they used Taglish "love ko 'to" instead of tagalog or somethin else

tagalog is also the taglish version of bahasa, spanish and mexican. maybe taglish will be a standard language someday 2

Do you mean English Carabao? Because there's a difference between English Carabao and Taglish. My parents told me that Taglish was started and popularized by this guy Ariel Oreta I think. During his time, people who spoke Taglish were stereotype as the rich, the metropolitanized or the expatriates. Today that stereotype is slowly dying.

English Carabao on the other hand was popularized by Jimmy Santos. It's the dumb version of English (in my opinion). It's like Commonwealth English spoken in wrong grammars. Another similarity to English Carabao is the African Pidgin dialect spoken by the African slaves before and during the Civil War in the United States.

I believe that it would be very hard to change Taglish because it has already influenced our culture so much that we already need it. One would sound very dorky if he says "Ano ang numero mo?" instead of "Ano ang number mo?"

On the other hand, English Carabao is still young and can be changed by the media and the schools. If you guys haven't noticed, the media should be the one to take credit in all of these "language evolutions." We should change it before other Asians who aren't really popular of knowing English start looking down on us when they've overlapped us language wise. It's one of the few things we can brag about and therefore we should take care of it. DRAMA!!! lol

what would it be in real tagalog then?

ito ang gusto ko was taken by royal.

Makati City? or MM

love ko 'to - mahal ko 'to.... very literal

"Gusto ko to" i think would have been fine "mahal" is too stong a word for junk food.

its sounds kinda gay

at least its not as bad as that one McDonald's ad that want you to fu-k its cheeseburgers

i love taglish

I agree with anyone who says it's gonna turn into some language one day. Because the way it sounds, and the wide usage of Taglish, it surely does sounds like it's gonna become some creole-like language someday.

Kris Aquino is one of the promoter of this language. you can see or hear it on her shows. or even in her commercials

personally i think taglish is pathetic. i mean why can't folks choose one way or the other? like a lady who'd say to PUJ driver:

"manong can you make para to the side naman, i'll going baba to the esquinita"

jeez lady wtf? if ur a guy i'd smack u in the face, but then again its not my language.

I am fine with Taglish. My only problem is that why do they promote such a language that deteriorates the original Tagalog specially in news.

Why not just use the Spanish or Tagalog alternative words, why English? I myself I don't say 'Gusto ko mo gamit sa computer", I say "Gusto ko mo gamit sa computadora".

I find Spanish or the original native words itself more fitting. With English it just sounds weird, specially for one that English was never part of our culture. I say instead of Taglish, why can't it be "Tagpino", "Tagano", "Bisalog" or "Spalog".

I keep editing hehehe. Ummm I find the use of English words very "ugly". It does not fit with our language at all. In fact, the Americans might start looking down on us becuase we are starting to speak horrible English becuase of this pathetic Taglish. I think we should start using Spanish words or create our own words for modern things. Like why can't we just make our own word for cellphone, or use the Spanish word computadora than "computer", to me it would sound way better.

NEH....

its perfect just the way it is

LOVE KO TO'

MAHAL KO TO

kolehiyalang maaarte lang nagtataglish..lol

hey I speak taglish at school...

ok mostly english

LOL

^ darn that is so fu-kn gay for a female.. how much more for a male?!!!!!!!

Terrible !!!

Its like watching Indian movies and you'd hear english words in the middle. Sounds bad.

That's what people are saying tagalog is the official language of the Philippines ???

And some say English is the official language too when people speak English, there's a tagalog too in the middle.

hey!!!!!!!!

who are you callin gay

LOL

Yea smack her face for saying "I'll going.." I will going? where's the be? Anyways, I never speak Taglish before until I came in America and I'm starting to speak like one. But I try and moderate myself.

i speak it only if i forgot the word for something in tagalog or vice versa, english for something when in a conversation...

like:

ano ba yan, pathetic talaga yang mga flirts na yan...lol
sometimes, you just forget the tagalog for pathetic and flirts...hahaha...at least in my case!

it's hateful when u use taglish and use your english phrases in it have wrong grammars...lol
magtagalog ka na lang kaya...

I don't like Taglish. It destroys both English and Tagalog and gives you a "trying hard" image.

Taglish accents are cute...although it can be annoying. lol

hey I DO taglish at school

LOL

if you're gonna start a sentence in a language, finish it with the same language....

And stupid people think it's cool when in fact it sounds dumb and imbecilic.
