You plan to move to the Philippines? Wollen Sie auf den Philippinen leben?

There are REALLY TONS of websites telling us how, why, maybe why not and when you'll be able to move to the Philippines. I only love to tell and explain some things "between the lines". Enjoy reading, be informed, have fun and be entertained too!

Ja, es gibt tonnenweise Webseiten, die Ihnen sagen wie, warum, vielleicht warum nicht und wann Sie am besten auf die Philippinen auswandern könnten. Ich möchte Ihnen in Zukunft "zwischen den Zeilen" einige zusätzlichen Dinge berichten und erzählen. Viel Spass beim Lesen und Gute Unterhaltung!

Pinoy Slang: Interesting Origin of Pinoy Words


Disclaimer: I am not a linguist nor an expert in language. I am simply a journalist who has been writing Filipino TV scripts for the past twenty years. I've always been fascinated with the Filipino language and the origin of certain words. The stories featured in this video are from some of the books and articles I've read, as well as from my conversations with anthropologists and experts on language/culture. I am not entirely sure if these theories/stories are all correct but nevertheless they make for an interesting piece of conversation. I hope I do not offend anybody. No hate please.
