Are u sure this is real cause I know a lot of old people that lives or has lived in the philippines that speak tagalog and they dont use any special symbols for any word, including my mom. Well idk i need to ask her. But if its real then thats kewl. :)

that's Baybayin, the ancient script of the Philippines. it's the ancient Filipino form of writing, so it's not modern Tagalog. but it really does look like tribal words D:

I'm filipino and it's disappointing to learn that I never knew about that...I knew I should've finished elementary in the Philippines!

This is interesting to know, being a Filipina myself. I don't get to learn much about the Philippines since I've been in America all my life.

I know that there are a lot of Muslims in the Philippines, so perhaps that's why it looks Arabic? Just wondering.. Hm.
