"All you can eat" sets a limit. Telling you that you can only eat this certain amount. Then it's gone. No more. "Eat all you can" challenges you to break that limit. Eat beyond what you normally eat, and there'll still be leftovers.

Context for those curious: Dogshow: What do you do when at a dog show. Either you bring a dog on a leash to show off, or make it do tricks to make people laugh. Now replace "dog on a leash" with "embarrasing photos or video clips of someone" For a while: The most common place this is used is when Person 1's currently talking with Person 2(to face or over phone) and Person 3 tries to call their attention. It basically means they'll be with you in a moment/"while". Green-minded: This stems from Spanish "Verde = green", where "verde" can be a more polite way of saying "risque" "lewd" or anything over PG13. KKK: Shortened to just "Katipunan" for the org or "Katipuneros" for the members, they are basically the FIlipino equivalent of "the Founding Fathers" in PH history. Extra: Who had control over PH? Non-Asian forces/"Conquerors" only, in order: > Spain using Mexico as proxy > Britain for 2 years > Back to Spain via Mexico > Spain directly this time coz Mexico dipped > US > Japan for 4 years > Back to US > Independence

Thanks for the clarification I kinda thought the green-minded was a reference to the statement "the grass is always greener on the other side" and so a person looking for green was looking for greener pastures or sexual chances that's why they are considered dirty-minded as sexual chances or anything related to that was what was always on their mind.

i have always believed (and still believe) that dogshow means to degrade the quality of a prestigious event/reputable person/serious topic by introducing silly/ridiculous twists that make it similar to a circus show. For example, the former president “dogshowing” PH politics by comparing his penis size to someone from the opposition and using it as an insult, or a national pageant contestant “dogshowing” the pageant by adding some cheap antics to spice up his/her performance on stage. In these cases, the people become “dogs” that are judged for the amusement they bring to a serious event.

Lowbat can also be used in the context of a person feeling tired (like being compared to a phone who's running low on battery) and doesn't have the energy to do things anymore like when your friends invite you to a party on a Friday night after work... "I'm sorry, lowbat na ko eh..."

"Green-minded" comes from the literal English translation of Spanish "chiste verde", which means exactly the same thing as its modern Philippine English counterpart: "green joke".
@AngryKittens
@AngryKittens 4 ай бұрын
A lot of the Philippine English vocabulary is the result of the switch from Spanish to English in school and government, with Spanish influencing the creation of new English words and phrases like "green joke"/"green-minded". Another example is "rotunda", for "roundabout" (instead of "round building"), which is derived from Spanish "rotonda". Or the more famous one I have discussed before "salvage" (from Spanish "salvaje" - "savage"). The opposite also happened, with English influencing Philippine Spanish. Like how we say "motorsiklo" ("motorciclo"), from English "motorcycle", instead of actual Spanish "motociclo" or "motocicleta" (without the R). Another is "kolehiyo" ("colegio") which means "college" (i.e. tertiary education/university), like in English, instead of its actual Spanish meaning: "school" (any school, but usually meaning "high school").

@@MariaIsabel_Fufuria It's recent slang. Coined by Sassa Gurl. I don't really consider it Philippine English. More like a direct loanword. It's only used in code-switching (e.g. "na-dogshpw", "pandodogshow"), never really in fully English sentences. in other English dialects, the phrase "What a dogshow!" already exists. With the meaning of something chaotic, messy, or unexpected. I've heard it used in the Philippines too before the current slang.

I don't remember hearing that back then. Speaking of Spanish being part of the curriculum,I disagree. Filipinos are already forced to learn 2 languages(Tagalog & English) in school if they're not from the Capital or Tagalog region. English will easily help someone with any job prospects abroad. Also helps them get into BPO companies. You face stiff competition for Spanish in Latin America. I really don't see the point unless you're planning to move to Spain or work as a nurse in California.

The Filipinos are both influenced by Spanish and English, the reason might be the confusion between the two languages. Salvage sounds like the word "salvaje", which is actually translated in English as "savage" rather than the other word. Salvage in Spanish is "salvar", which means "to save". In language definitions, these are called false friends.

"Salvage" is the English pronunciation of the Spanish term "salvaje" which means "cruel." "Sinalbahe" in Tagalog/Filipino means "one who was tortured or was savage to." Thus a tortured murder victim that was dumped somewhere remote was "salvaged."

Worked in the Philippine call center industry. One of the things we were taught was the difference between "for a while" in the US vs. in the PH. We would not want a US customer worrying to be put on hold "for a while" or for the resolution to be "in a while." Lol. We were taught how US customers are busy sometimes working more than one job and oftentimes only get the chance to call us in-between breaks so it's important that there be a one-call resolution as much as possible, that we make them feel that we value their time.

I looked up the definition of the word "awhile" on Google, and it means "for a moment." Similar phrases include "for a while," "for a little while," and "for a bit." In Filipino, "awhile" can be translated as "saglit" or "sandali." Personally, when someone says "it would take a while," I understand it to mean it would take a long time. However, "for a while" has always meant "for a moment" to me, indicating that it wouldn't take much time.

One of the most famous events that was recorded in books/texts was when Andres Bonifacio (the leader of the KKK) ripped up the "sedula" (tax) to show off to the Spanish people that they no longer want to be colonized by them.

While “eat-all-you-can” as a Filipino English term for “all-you-can-eat” (presumably reflective of the primarily VOS/VSO sentence structure in Filipino, even though SVO is sometimes used) was a good Philippine English vocabulary, I think the slang term _buffet_ would have been better. While _buffet_ typically implies self-service restaurants (where you either pay a fixed price or pay based on the ala carte price of the items selected), in the Philippines, buffet is often used to mean “all-you-can-eat”, even if the patrons do not pick up food themselves from a buffet line and order through a server.

Tagalog is a VSO (verb-subject-object) language, thus the verb "eat" comes first in "Eat all you can." English is an SVO (subject-verb-object) language, thus "all you" (subject) comes first before "can eat" (the verb).

And that's why in the call center, they always tell the agents not to say "for a while" even if they actually meant it's just for seconds, coz the customers will think they actually meant it's gonna take a while.

It’s LOWBATT, its like running low on your cellphone battery or any device. Or it can also be used colloquially for a person or animal, who is running out of energy due to exhaustion.

Lowbat could also mean the person feels very tired. 🙂 Next > From google: How long does while mean? A while means you have to wait for a period of time until it is ready. Usually it's a short while and not too long. ✌️

This is the ONLY channel that can go deeper with Filipino thingy like this unknown words that need to understand worldwide. KKK is about Philippine history, FOR A WHILE and LOW BAT or LOW BATT is very useful terms. Also, low batt indicates that someone expressing that their energy fully drained in such work mostly ("tired" in short term)🤔.

I think the easiest explanation of “for a while” meaning “just a second” is that it’s kind of a shortened version of “for a little while,” meaning for a short moment.

"For a while" also tempers your expectation, it's more polite to the person waiting to expect a longer period of wait and get surprised with a short one, than expect a quick second and wait an hour, that's why they use this term a lot if they can't give a reasonable estimate.

While watching this I just remembered my convo with my Aussie manager about bath, lol. I was a bit late for the meeting like 5mins and so I told her, sorry I took a bath. Then she told me how I loved taking a bath every day (at noon lol) and I was like yeah it's normal in the Philippines to take a bath at least once a day (for me twice) and she was shocked. So I was confused and learned she thought I was taking a bath in a bathtub. Now we both learned that bathing means shower in the Philippines. skl

"Eat-All-You-Can" usually refers to "All-You-Can-Eat buffets" specifically, since a buffet can have limited food sometimes (like, only a certain amount of food is allowed per person, whereas in an "Eat-All-You-Can buffet", a person is allowed to either take as much as they want from the get go or simply return multiple times until they're too full to eat any more).

"Low bat" is also used to describe someone who is too tired to do anything. "Green-minded" derived from the word "green" meaning young, therefore "immature" in a sense.

From my research, I found the meaning of green-minded. The tagalog of green is berde, or in Spanish, it's verde, but here in the Philippines, berde sounds like birdie, and when you say birdie, it's like your bird or a genitals, which is why it's called green-minded.

I think as a child of 90s in Philippines (correct me if im wrong Pilipinos) the green minded is from the Filipino band from 90s THE GRIN DEPARTMENT, most of there songs has double meaning and most of it is sexually.. (i just heard when i was a kid) Btw.. Green also has other meaning in Philippines, when some1 call u " VERDE" or green Blood it means YOUR GAY❤

"For a while" is used the way it is because moment and while have the same word in Tagalog. When a person says "A moment," or "A while," it generally means wait an unspecified amount of time, but assume we're working on it.
