Lost in Filipino: Funny Language Fails

Navigating High-Context Communication: My Experience Living in the Philippines 🇵🇭 | Language & Culture Insights
As someone who grew up speaking English (a low-context language), adjusting to the rich, layered communication style of high-context cultures like the Philippines has been an eye-opening journey! 🌍 In this video, I break down the differences between how we ask questions, interpret answers, and understand subtlety between these two worlds.
Why does a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ not mean what you think? 🤔 How do you get the information you need in a high-context culture? I share tips on how to navigate these nuances and the art of listening deeply-while adding a little foodie flair along the way! 🍽️
Stick around as I sprinkle in some light-hearted moments, including a dramatic reenactment (foodie edition) to keep things fun and entertaining! 😹

2:05 The accent strongly suggests that you already know Filipino.

Wow! People have previously laughed at my accent when I spoke, so I've been practicing a lot more. I appreciate the compliment! 🇵🇭

I love it, Ms. Faith. Next time, we can talk a lot of Filipino dialects for you to learn like in Bicol. You are "Magayon and Oragon".

Thank you so much Janice! I appreciate your patience and taking the time to teach me! The Bicol dialect sounds so beautiful!
