Jan speaking Tagalog on her Graduation Day

Jan speaking Tagalog on her Graduation Day - June 7, 2012

[@AngPinoyTalagaChannel]

I appreciated her effort to speak filipino language. What made me sad after watching this video? That many filipino people who went abroad to work and live had forgotten to value their own native language. They were not able to teach their children to speak proper filipino language. That manifested on this video.

[@mateodollentasjr2372]

One day me and my friend were in store in San Francisco were in line to pay our stuff to the cashier and there was one Filipina girl ahead of us my friend ask the lady about pinakbet then she said she don't know it anymore she forgot the pinakbet that's true its really sad I just look at her like WHAT ?

[@joserizal1158]

[@champadragon9535]

Sad but true they teach there kids English instead of speaking Filipino because they think they won't be able to speak English and its wrong they are in America most of the people around speak English.

[@earli649]

Even if their parents teach them Tagalog, their friends, classmates, and neighbors will still speak in English. You acquire a language by being exposed to it. Your parents acting as teachers alone can't make you reach fluency. Lol.

I have Chinese descent and hearing that girl speaking Mandarin fluently as she was saying the class year was 2012 (the year before I graduated) gave me a HUGE SMILE in my face as I always adore the Mandarin language! 😇👲🍊 I had a feeling most of the students cheered for the girl speaking Spanish as they must be in a mostly Hispanic school as I know by experience since most students at my high school were Hispanic as they were part of the 80% and a handful couldn't understand English well whenever I spoken to them lol. Also, I just created a Pilipino Flag this morning just for fun as I have it hung up on my wall inside my house and immediately SMILED hearing a student speaking Tagalog (Filipino) as I always dreamt of being a native speaker myself! 😀

"Suporta" in Filipino "Suporte" in Portuguese "Apoyo" in Spanish Means Filipino language has loan words from Portuguese

[@artesiningart4961]

✌🏼😅🇵🇭 The word "suporta" in Filipino and in most of the other languages and dialects of the Philippines is from the Spanish word "soporta" and not from the Portuguese word "suporte". English: support Filipino: suporta, tulong, tangkilik, sammaked, sulay, apoyo, kalinga, tangkakal, etc. Tagalog and Sinaunang Tagalog: suporta, tulong, tangkilik, sugi, kalinga, tangkakal, etc. Spanish: apoyo, soporta, etc. Portuguese: apoio, suporte, etc.
