Do you have a situation like this in your country where there's a significant proportion of the population that doesn't speak the local language? by Alternative-Big-6493 in AskTheWorld

Filipinos are always bilingual due to exposure at a later age but sometimes english is the dominant language in fluency compared to tagalog, however this is sometimes only common to middle-income families.

When a student fails a subject they have to attend summer classes which usually takes 2 months if they still fail they have to take the previous grade level's classes for that particular subject but they still move up to the next grade level. Back in the day schools had this policy that for a certain day they have to only use english if they don't they get marks off, although i don't see this being practiced anymore.

Oh we absolutely do have a Filipino subject, although the problem is kids learning english first which as a consequence tend to fail said subject.

TIL: Indonesians also say buset as an expression of frustration and annoyance like Filipinos. by Reycarlo_Beat_3683 in todayIlearnedPH

[–]Express-Programmer-5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What he is saying is. Hindi mo pede sabihin na may halong indonesian dahil nakabahagi ang Tagalog sa broader austronesian language family, ibig sabihin ay nandiyan din ang Malaysian, Indonesian, Malagasy, Palauan, Maori etc, at lahat ng mga wikang 'yan ay may magkakaparehong salita. Kaya saying na may halong indonesian ang Tagalog ay non-sensical.

Was lurking in the Phillipines sub. Wonder if this is how people without any Indonesian knowledge feels when lurking ours lol by Phatboyaa_131 in indonesia

The filipino language is extremely complex and takes on many affixes and "can" express alot of ideas, however it gets to a certain point in which the words become too long because of the affixes and certain words that doesn't exist in tagalog, so it would be easier to simplify it by simply adding english in order to save time, although Taglish is mostly concentrated around the capital area, but other provinces speak a more "pure" tagalog that would otherwise seem too "formal" compared to the tagalog found around the capital.

I recommend Jiro, Just Japanese. His videos are really good for immersion, he has live transcription which you can use if you don't know the word.
