The Taglish Thread,,, - Serene - 01-18-2010

Well, originally, we had a rule to not post in tagalog or filipino here in RR. But because we've been having meets regularly and have become soft and casual, in ways, good things but add that to having foreign members who end up being dumbfounded because of the language that's new to them, I decided to srat this thread.

If you guys have any questions, just post it here, if you guys need tagalog or filipino to english translations, post it here, we'll be more than happy to help out.

What does ,,,,,,, mean?

It shits on everything I've learned about punctuation marks.

LOL LOL LOL LOL

palaman XD

I don't use these ",,,,,," I use these "....."

If I use comas, my sentence should look like this. Right? (not used to it xP )

Some words to get you foreigners started:

Oo - yes
Hindi - no
Siguro - maybe
Astig - colloquial term meaning cool, awesome

What other common Tagalog words do we use?

Putang ina.

Puta = whore

ina = mother.

Adding the 'ng' suffix to the end of most nouns ending in vowels turns them into adjectives.

Can also be related to "son of a b*tch"


RE: The Taglish Thread,,, - Serene - 01-19-2010

It's not related, IT IS son-of-a-bitch.


RE: The Taglish Thread,,, - NiX - 01-19-2010

No. Son of a bitch is referring to the bastard child of a mother whore. Putang ina is literally just a mother who also happens to be a whore.


RE: The Taglish Thread,,, - clonezero - 01-19-2010

Filipinos are more direct XD

common words ...

katakam-takam = Drool

sugpo = prawns

Kulang sa Pansing (KSP) - Attention whores. Constantly clamoring for people to notice them, by doing stupid things, butting into topics that don't concern them and sticking their nose where they're not wanted.

More often than not, they end up earning the ire of the people around them.

I'm sensing passive aggressive intentions for the necro. LOL
