Even the reporter was having a hard time asking in full filipino 😂

Most of the people they interviewed were young. I bet older people would have an easier time talking tagalog.

Please dont lose your languages, Filipinos. They are precious

[legendarymuramasa]

You cant just speak pure Tagalog without sounding like a famous Filipino poet

Me as Malaysian, i love watching Filipino teleserye. It fascinating to see how unique the Tagalog language. For us, Tagalog is like our long lost brother, it’s like we should understand the language but we can’t..😂😂😂 it’s getting me more interested when i watch Marian Rivera’s “Amaya”. That series using the pure Tagalog as the series depicted the time during Pre-colonial period. If anyone curious how pure Tagalog is spoken, I recommend you watch the series. Mahal na mahal ko po kayo! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Nowadays, if you speak in full Tagalog, you're considered rare. I love the language. When you hear it spoken in it's true form, you'll love it too.

Let me give you an example of a Taglish.

The Filipino Language is deep, and sadly to say Philippine education prioritizes English rather than its language.

I'm Filipino-Japanese, this remind me of the video where they also asked Japanese people to speak pure Japanese haha. This is such an interesting topic!

"Can you speak tagalog?"

Me: Yes of cours- Pisting yawa.

[Prinren]

"can you answer fully in filipino?"
"Yes! Oh..."
That guy who tried so hard, that was cute.

[Lili-yqtb]

well i think filipinos that can speak pure tagalog anytime, are the coolest.

I had a Filipino professor from my university that speaks so fluently, you'd rediscover your old but familiar Filipino vocabulary and hear it like poetry. That professor works in the university near the interview area :)

Why some Filipinos speak English and Filipino within a conversation:
1. Some English words cannot be translated to Filipino (just like how there used to be no words from other languages can be translated to English so it had to borrow words from other languages).
2. Filipino language teachers don't encourage students to speak pure Filipino, therefore we're having trouble speaking our native language.

(Before replying to my comment, please be aware that this is just my opinion.)

When you speak 3 languages and mix all of them in one sentence.

I just realized my former Filipino teacher speaks pure Filipino especially during her lectures, now that I'm a freshman college, I missed listening to her
