chavacano always uses masculine.. "el" instead of "la" el vida, el mesa, el niña, etc.. it was broken spanish... but nowadays, some chavacano especially the chavacanos in cavite corrected some broken grammars..

[@ecilatnecniv]

spanish was mandatory in curriculums until it was totally eradicated in the 1970's... and to worsen it all, the government is trying to also eradicate english in schools.. so stupid that the math and science subjects in textbooks are totally funny when you read them.. i won't be surprised if the children from that transition's generation will be having lack of knowledge in english if not knowledge in general compare to earlier generations..

Chavacano or Chabacano [tʃaβaˈkano] is a group of Spanish-based creole language varieties spoken in the Philippines. The variety spoken in Zamboanga City, located in the southern Philippine island group of Mindanao, has the highest concentration of speakers. ... Chavacano is the only Spanish-based creole in Asia.

[@jermiecylcalatan6136]

the filipino language is indees complicated. 😁 "I" is "ako" . but "ako" can also be "me" . the meaning depends on the usage and construction of the sentence. "i hope to love" is "ako ay umaasang magmahal" . "love" is "mahal" and "to love" is "magmahal". the word "hope" alone is "pag-asa" but since it is used in a sentence the meaning changes to "umaasa" . "I hope to love" can be translated to "ako ay umaasang magmahal" but this can also be translated in english as "i am hoping to love" which can also be "umaasa akong magmahal" . either way, they have the same thought and so "I hope to love" can be translated in both ways.

umaasa is hoping in English since it is in present tense.

You guys are so funny! While watching this video, I got a flashback many years ago when I went to Cancun on vacation. (I am a Filipino-American from the Northwest.)

[@isaiah1332]

From what I understand, Castilian is the "Old English" of the Spanish language and is what the conquistadores were speaking by the time they came to the Philippines. So Cavacano is really just a "simplified" version of Castilian, similar to how it is "simplified" in Latin America for ease of use for the local people then kinda morphed into its own distinct language. This phenomenon happens all over the world and not exclusive to Spanish or the colonial era. Even Spanish itself is the Chabacano/Vulgar form of the Latin language.

[@rosheleu]

Latin american Spanish is over 99% similar to Castillan Spanish. The only difference are some colloquial expressions; the pronunciation of a their C, Z (Castillan has that lisp); and the use of vosotros (informal plural of You) where pretty much all the Latin American countries use only the formal plural form "Ustedes"

[@loryasis7837]

Yeah. Language is really amazing. How the original Latin language went extinct when Roman empire fell. Like how we lost Spanish when colonization ended because similar to Latin, only rich educated people knows the language and was not properly taught to people. And all was left was it's bastardized form. I read somewhere that Italian is more close to Latin, and a language called Catalan in Spain. I even find it amazing that the trace of the Roman empire's Latin language can also be found here at our country. Although English comes from major languages including latin, it's still good that we have our own, although given to us through colonization. I was studying and memorizing latin prayers before and I was amazed that I can understand some of the words. Even tagalog word "at" is very similar to Latin's "et".

[@algladyou]

@@rosheleu and the "LL". Y vs LY

[@isaiah1332]

@@rosheleu Yeah, but all Creole Languages start with a "vulgar" form of the original and then evolve depending on the circumstances. It can either be refined closer to the original or branch off completely. It's likely that the entire PH would have spoken a semblance of Spanish if they weren't ousted, and when that happened, speaking Spanish was suddenly seen as unpatriotic and started its decline. Chavacano is what it is today because of the few speakers of the language and their isolation from the mainland. It even has other variations depending on which place it is spoken.

[@yurig1397]

"I" in tagalog is "ako". Also the word "love" has a 2 word translation in tagalog, ie "mahal" (also means expensive) and "ibig" with a literal translation of love. So to help Efra to translate "I hope to love" have 2 translation - "Ako ay umaasa na umibig" or "Ako'y umaasa na magmahal" both have the same meaning. In my thought I feel that umibig is the correct word rather than magmahal. I believe we filipino started using mahal or magmahal that means love because even though it is not a literal translation of love because if you love someone you value them and saying "mahal kita" for me means I value you which means if you value someone then that means you love them and that is when we started saying mahal kita to someone to express our love. If anyone can give their thoughts about this I would be happy to have one. P.S. I do not know why I ponder so deeply in this matter, maybe because watching too much of "EFRA'S MIND" hahaha.

Sorry to say this Waleska and Efra, they actually said "olvida" instead of "el vida". If you look for the Chavacano lyrics online, it's what it said.

That's what also I heard "Olvidar"

Chavacano language is the language of the people from the Zamboanga peninsula in the Southern Philippines far away from the capital but in the nearby provinces of Cavite and Mindoro I guess they are many still speaking that language.

We don't say COMMO ESTAS but QUE TAL. which is the old way of saying how are you (sort of things like that.LOL). I agree that there are some conjugations were based in portuguese like "ta"(as being) and "na"(as referring to a place) Muchas gracias!! Besos!!!!
