well probably because i was bored...
i mean yea i answered the questions for the fun of it... and i find it wrong for him/her to judge people if they are real filipinos whether or not they can answer the questions...
but that so does not give you the right to call me a hypocrite.

i don't wanna sound sensitive and i know you didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings (or maybe you did) but you deffitniley hurt mine. just to let you know.

My apologies.
Just seemed awfully contradicting.

[Sumiaki]

I'm a domestic Filipino? Lol. Well I don't really care. All this "I'm _____" is just to classify ourselves. You don't really need to know your own culture to be it. If you're from there, you're from there. There's no such thing as a "true" filipino or w/e. nationalities, races, and sex preference are just tools of classification. Something we can do without. We try to seperate ourselves and in doing that we create hate for each other.

From going back to the homeland several times. I can tell you. If you lives a good amount of time in some other country than Philippines especially the United States then YOU ARE NOT FILIPINA/FILIPINO
Your ethnicity may be so, but nationality wise you arent.

I'll first give an example of my parents. They were raised in d Philippines both lived there till their early 20's when they got an oppertunity to come to America. My mom because she was a nurse, Dad because he was an engineer. Since then, theyve spent their lives here in america. 18+ years later. Their nothing but reflection of American values, with some deep implanted filipino values as well and in addition some filipino culture to that. However, if you see their drive to work, to obtain, to be rich and earn it thru hard work, to raise kids thouroughly, and many other things. You will notice that other than the fact my dad may be brown (well mom is one of those light filipinas), and sometimes the fob accent (which my parents for the most part speak english as well as any american born citizen such as myself) you will note their basically Americans who eat filipino foods and do some filipino tradition.

We went to the Philippines last summer. Everyone right away not only knew i wasnt filipino. They considered my parents not even filipino. Just the way the filipino society and values are back there is soo much diffrent than ours.

That is why I guess I am also fascinated by AP History as a nerd I might sound. Cause any of you taking that class must have learned that the people from Britain who founded the 13 colonies in New England have evolved and grown to people who have called themselves Brittish but in reality WERE NOT brittish for they had values and mentality which has evolved to the Puritan values of America.

And as history was, I see the same for my parents, who have evolved to the puristic values which america exhibits. Not a puritan, not religious? Doesn't matter, Parents and I are catholic, and they are using the values which the puritans used back in the day. Even all you who aren't religious at all. If you have the drive to be successful, to have an education, to find a good job which will earn you money, then you are a offspring of the "true" american values established by puritans.

See I learned all this from AP US. So anyway, besides going on and on and on about what ive learned in a class, back to the point.

Chances are, every single person here who claims to be filipino are like the colonists who claimed they were Brittish. You look filipino, have some values and traditions of a filipino, But you definatly arent and it is obvious to real filipinos when you go back to the homeland.

i don't think that u should judge (can't really find the right word.) people whether they are filipino or not with a bunch of questions. if a black person considers himself filipino... hell, he would be prolly be more pinoy than our granparents... ya i don't think i'm making sense... but who cares...

Yes who cares... I do not wish to offend you. However, that is totally WRONG. If a black person were to stay a long time in Philippines, inherit their values and mentality of thinking in addition some culture and filipino tradition then yes he will obviously be more of a "filipino" compared to ethnic filipinos living in America.

But if he just says he's filipino, just in the same way I can say I'm canadian, and be obsessed with canadians, but unless I'v lived there for a long tme and truly experienced the life of one then how can I say I am a canadian other than the fact I have book knowledge of them?

As for the questions asked in this thread by the first poster. Obviously a couple of questions would not justify if your truley filipino or not. But I doubt that was the intention of the first poster. It was more intended I believe to be of entertainment to see how much you know about you history/ancestry. With the people who couldnt answer those questions, goes to show how distant "americanized filipinos" are compared to filipinos living in the Philippines.

But the funny part is.... in addition to the post I have made below this one about dialects. A filipino in the Philippines who possibly is a farmer in the south, dependent soley on himself and trade of the crop he grows, may not speak tagalog. So All your tagalog questions he will get wrong. Then about the who is who? With how self center-ed most filipinos are over there may not care and possibly forgotten about their history or their government for the past couple years. Same goes for americans here who dont care about politics and the world around them that they dont know who historical figured in America are, or who runs the government today.

Just some random thoughts that came to my mind... Shiet look at my post im really reflecting how much school is dominating my life. All I talk about is school. I need a life hahaha.

[noaccounthere]

HAHAHAHA. I think her CAPS was stuck



Isn't it Tagalog? or Ilocano? or Pampangan? or Visayan? or all those other types of tagalog? Not "soeaking in Filipino" o.0

In the Philippines there is a vast amount of Islands. 20,000 I believe maybe less or more, dont quote me on that part. However due to the geographic scattering of the philippines everyone over large amount of time have developed their own language. Do not forget filipinos used to live in tribes basically before spanish invasion of Philippines.

So now in present day you come with all these diffrent dialects which Filipinos speak. Tagalog, Ilocano, Pampangan, Visaya are all diffrent dialects. They sound alike, but their tottally diffrent. Some words in dialects match words and meanings of other dialects but for the most part a tottaly diffrent language. My dad is like half ilocano and my mom isnt. So when i'd go to my dad side grandparent's house my grandma would start speaking in ilocano to my dad by accident and my mom would first think its tagalog until she realizes she doesnt know what the words coming from my grandmother's mouth are though it sounds like tagalog.

So since u got a bazillion dialects in the Philippines basically its hard to communicate to the whole country as a whole. From the northern islands and go southern islands and chances are they dont know tagalog.

BUT... All filipinos know English! Sure they might have a accent, but to think of it the national language of the Philippines should rather be considered English instead of tagalog because almost everyone there can speak english. But not everyone there speaks tagalog.
