FiliLife: A Filipino Word You Find Beautiful

/ news, FiliXP, FiliLife


Do you ever wonder how many Filipino words can be used to say “I Love You?”

The Philippines has a rich vocabulary with modified words from languages such as English and Spanish, not to mention the local slang words we’ve invented along the way. For today’s #FiliXP / #FiliLife challenge, we would like to know what word from the Filipino language do you find most beautiful. It can be something that sounds cool, something that has no foreign translation, or a word from your native dialect that just carries a special meaning.

You can put your answer on the comment section below but it’d be awesome if you write it down on a piece of paper and take a photo/ video of you holding it/ telling us how it’s pronounced.
