Kung naiinis ako sa kanila, that's my opinion and I'm entitled to it.

When a child sees a wrong act being committed by an adult, especially his/her parents, the wrong becomes right. Remember the old commercial? Kaya ako naiinis sa mga ganyan. While it's true that these can be corrected, in most cases, they're not. Point is, wag turuan/wag pakitaan ng mali ang mga bata. Idealistic, yes, but I'd choose that over fatalism any day.

wag na lang mag-english kung mali naman...
about visayans: second language nila ang english parang mga taga-Mountain province mas madali sa kanila ang magsalita ng English kesa Tagalog...

re: english with kids

I speak to my daughter in English because I want her to have the advantage of being fluent in it. She wants to learn tagalog and she tries some words and I don't discourage her to do so. But I tell her to speak English or speak atagalog, never mix them up. IMHO, she can learn tagalog in school. It's all around her and she will pick it up easily.

speak straight english if you can, straight tagalog if you cant do well in english, however if you want to sound a note higher, better deliver your reply in only straight enlisgh sentence or straight tagalog,mortal sin mixing and matching them up, sounds bad and youll look stupid

I just recalled something:

When i used to live in Canada - they read Z as "Zed" not "Zee"....its freakin annoying when they say zed.....

300 zed x (300zx)
350 zed (350z)

they'd spell out zero as zed-e-r-o.......

.....one of the weird and funny thing about Canadians....oppsssss....what am i talking about.....im a dual citizen (actually, i have 3 citizenships, LOL)

imo ... if you want to learn but you can't speak straight english ... you should still try to speak it ... it's only when you practice speaking will you be able to speak correctly ... you'll get to figure out which correct nouns to use .. which correct verbs to use ... it will improve your sentence construction and grammar ... and it will improve your confidence that you're able to communicate your ideas in english ... you'll only sound stupid if you're trying to impress ...
