I actually heard that "Eskrima" just comes from the Spanish word for "fencing"-NOT "skirmish", which is a really fast battle. I also heard that, historically speaking, FMA are just a combination of silat and related arts, mixed with Spanish renaissance era fencing.

KALI is also derived from two Bisayan words..KAmot (Hand) LIhok (movement)..that's why it's called Kali also.

So. Kali, coming from the Kris blade doesn't have anything to do with the Martial Art itself..? And Arnis means to protect or the protection of the Hand. That way your fingers or hand won't get cut off. While Eskrima is a type of scrimmage between 2 fighters with weapon(s). 🤔👍

What are u talking about? Arnis was never influenced by fencing. How could that be true since Magellan, the first European to have set foot on the Philippines was killed by a Filipino Arnis practitioner in battle. Thats world history. Look at the size of that sword you're holding compared to a fencing sword. They have nothing in common. Eskrima comes from the Spanish word "la esgrima" which means "fencing", "SWORDSMANSHIP", or "SWORDSPLAY". The Spaniards only called it "la esgrima" because its a "SWORDSPLAY", not because its been influenced by fencing. Arnis is a full system of its own and fencing is an entirely different one. If there are any similarities in form, it's only because the mechanics of our anatomy works the same. We're all Humans. A person from one side of the world will throw a punch similar in form to a person from the other side of the world, because of body mechanics, not influence.

@@hubertboorder I think he's referring to the fact that the word 'kris' likely came first. The more southern languages use the word 'kris' which is supposedly a derivation of the Javanese 'keris', whereas 'kalis' is an adaptation used in the northern language of tagalog, which is supposedly younger than the southern languages. This is actually why the idea of the word 'kali' coming from 'kalis' is contentious- it just doesn't fit any of our grammar rules, tagalog in particular. This is also compounded by the fact that the 'kali' term is more used in southern regions (and even then, rarely) and abroad, while 'kalis' is, again, tagalog and from the northern regions.

the roots of the Filipino culture is contentious at best....before the Spanish came, the islands were populated by a aboriginal group called the Austroloid(negritos, melanesians) first and basic Austronesian people but with different languages, second within 6000 years.(The only reason pir country is called the Philippines because the spanish took ownership by hook and by crook and named him after a child prince). there are several theories at play as to how our people came about.: 1) as the Austroloids did in the first 60k years, the Austronesians came along the land bridge when the oceans were low from the south 2) the Austronesians came by sea from Taiwan only and populated the west of the pacific islands to become polynesians. 3) my theory is both from Taiwan and the south or maybe even the middle directly from Vietnam(before the push by the northern light colored Asians to move into the Hong Kong region that is closest to Taiwan). at any rate, the spanish had a large influence more in the north were they had more dominance.....the southern regions were harder for the spanish to control because the populace were in dense jungle areas(like vietnam) were fighting and control were difficult with sword and musket....thus the culture was more in line with that of the Indonesians.....Luzon was easier to control because the population were centered at the foothills of the mountains and the plains close to Manila....the headhunters in the mountains were still in control of their culture up the Spanish/Filipino American war.

@@fishonado what the F are you talking about. what makes you think only Moros are the original in Mindanao, there are many provinces there and through time people keep migrating and moving to & fro. Many Ilocanos are also in Mindanao even Borneo and Hawaii, just like there are Tausugs in Manila. Kalis cant come from Indonesia, their Keris is a dagger, smaller version & not a sword, do you think in ancient its easy to produce swords, so why is Keris small? its not because they just want to copy, its because they dont have the materials or even technique of master swordsmith or might be even, dont need to use swords in battle.

@@fishonado this is off topic, but you might want to check on ancient Greek armors found in Mindanao region. it could throw some light on ancient PH history that’s still in obscurity. even the Bible narrative of ancient Ophir pointing to Philippines today. and I dont see any Indonesia connection, coz its another territory under the mountains of fire, so dont easily inject your own theory without having analysis & basis.

@@arniscreativeflow9088 , dude FMA was not and did not actually influenced by any European style of swordmanship, let alone from the Spaniards. These terms were merely derived from the Spanish language (except Kali) but its techniques were invented by the Filipinos. Like Brazilians. They got BJJ but they never invented its techniques originally for its arsenal came actually from Kodokan Judo. Even its groundworks they're boasting were not originally invented by Brazilians. Better thank the Japanese samurais and Jigoro Kano for that instead. Stop glorifying your Western ego too much to the point you're disseminating fallacious information here. Don't act like a Gracie mate.
