I remember when I was working overseas as a cashier (in a Forex/Currency exchange company), I had some customers who were from the Latin America, and instead of counting the bank notes in English, I counted them in Spanish! Their reactions were epic! 🙂
i mean our ancestors say "ilagay mo sa uno" like ackk🤧
uno dos tres kwatro singko😄

In visayas we count in spanish from one and so on.
I'm a Filipino who live in Zamboanga City, and our local language usually contain 85% Spanish. If we're to speak with people who speak Spanish, we would probably understand them. Our local language is called "Chavacano" it's the only Spanish-based creole in Asia also known as "Asia's only Latin City."
Chavacano is 97% Spanish. But no you will not be able to converse with Spanish speaker, just because you can speak the Creole. But to be fair only Chavacanos have a right to claim be like Latinos.
Eh...
Yah ur right
3vry_1 ciao His comment was on the pinoy pride bible, where fabricated fun facts are listed from A-Z.
I LOVE PLAYING ROBLOX, and I have a lot of spanish friends there, they said they are Chavacano and they can speak tagalog too I dont have idea that they are filipino too...
"Uy" and "Ang" are Chinese surnames tho since Chinese people were one of the first settlers in the Philippines (they mostly did trade and business). Tan, Lim and Sy are also one of the most common Chinese surnames of Filipinos, especially those Filipino-Chinese.
Tama ka diyan
you're right!..my great grandma surname is Chiu..now I'm married to a Tan!😂
information😇
@@pamelatan4417 then your daughter married to khan. Khan chiu Tan 😂😂
My late grandmothers from Bicol never taught us Spanish, (they were mestizas). They thought it was no longer practical to learn Spanish. So they kept the language among themselves, but taught us many Spanish religious songs and prayers, so much so that my aunties are the main singers of hymns during Holy Week processions. Many towns in Bicol still sung devotional hymns in Spanish.
bikolano here🙋😅
Totoo po naalala kapag may prosisyon or aurora lahat ng kinakanta namin nakasulat sa Spanish😂😂
@@vanessa_love3234yes so true po may mga kanta sa prosisyon na mga spanish words
@@vanessa_love3234 kahit yung DOMINGGO spanish din yun.
Sa tagalog kasi ang LINGGO ang gamit na word ng SUNDAY samin sa bikol LUNES, MARTES, MIYERKULES, HUWEBES, BIYERNES, SABADO, "DOMINGGO" kaya buong buong spanish
Yup, relate ako dito. Both parents are Bicolano, nagmi-mix sila ng Spanish words sa mga sinasabi nila. Kaya akala ko purong Bicolano lang sinasabi nila.
All of my grandmothers, grandfathers, aunts, uncles, and even my mom can speak Spanish fluently. This is because Spanish used to be taught in the top schools here. Unfortunately, the schools stopped teaching Spanish so when it was my turn to study, I didn't experience learning the Spanish language. I used to feel like out of place because my relatives would speak in Spanish.😅 I could understand a little though.
University of the Philippines still does. At least in the first year (2 semesters) of all students regardless of course. Spanish is part of the general curriculum. UP Diliman also offers Spanish language as a Bachelor of Arts major
@@kumiko7808 Oh nice. I didn't know that. I wish they still continued to teach Spanish in grade school and high school. I would have loved to learn it. I guess the schools didn't see a need for it anymore.
formerly the philippines were also part of the spanish empire like america, but the iunites states took control of the island and removed the language completely
That is the reason why Spanish was almost eradicated from the country.
@@Merluso415 Yes, I am aware of that as I am a Filipino. But Spanish was still being taught in schools until I think the 80's? At least in the schools that were founded by the Spanish, like Colegio San Agustin which is where I studied. I remember seeing an office for Spanish studies when I was in elementary in CSA. Then, they just decided to just not include it in the curriculum because maybe they didn't see the need for it anymore.

Trifate..been waiting to your SB19 Love yours reaction and the Round Festival performance !! You're one of their genuine reactors..hope to see them soon😊
Me too I've been waiting for it hope to see them soooon 💙

Agree!
Correction Magellan he's not a Spanish national navigator he's a Portuguese rather who sent by the king of Spain king Philip the 2nd
True
Correct. He got a better offer from Spain so he explored in the name of the Spanish king and Queen.
I am a Filipino and I just recently enrolled into a Spanish language class. My reason is related to job opportunities. Many foreign companies are looking for people who are good in English and spanish/chinese language plus highly competitive customer service behavior. According to them, Philippines has this qualities they are looking for.
hello may i ask which school do u go to study spanish? i am planning to study spanish but don't have any idea where school.
yes....if you are bilingual you have better job opportunities...
👋😊🇵🇭 Buenas noches desde aqui na Ciudad de Zamboanga na Filipinas!
(Literal Translation: Good evening from here in City of Zamboanga in Philippines!)
(Conceptual Translation: Good evening from Zamboanga City in the Philippines!)
[The greeting above is a greeting and an example in Chavacano or Chabacano language, language variants, language varieties or collective language, which is a and the only Spanish or Spanish-based creole language in the Philippines and in Asia. It is specifically in the dialect, variant or variety of Chavacano de Zamboanga or Zamboangueño Chavacano which is spoken and used in Zamboanga City and in its neighboring, nearby, surrounding and/or adjacent areas, locations and places in Western Mindanao area or the southwestern Philippines especially in Isabela City and Lamitan City in the province of Basilan. It is one of the regional and auxiliary official languages of the Philippines among the other regional languages of the Philippines. There are also other dialects, variants or varieties of this language in the other parts of the Philippines such as in Cotabato City, Davao City, Cavite City and in Ternate, Cavite.]
hasta donde yo tengo entendido , casi no se habla español en filipinas
Spanish was taught in college during my time. It's quite difficult to memorize the 23 stanza of Jose Rizal Mi Ultimo Adios. But, we also speak Spanish because my great grandfather came from Spain. But nowadays, very little number of Filipinos speak Spanish language.
I still wish with the 1987 Philippine Constitution they could have placed Spanish as a third national language making Filipino TRILINGUAL or more / MULTILINGUAL having 4 language naturally.
I'm saying this as Spanish can be easily learned by Filipino as it's already familiar to us and many Filipinos are going to Spain to work or etc.
What!! Don't! Spanish is the language of Spain, it's not from the Philippines. There are more than 100 languages in the Philippines and yet, you want to make Spanish a national language? Are you stupid? We should be proud of Filipino and spread it more.
Some Filipinos are having a hard time learning Filipino which is kinda embarrassing and then you want them to learn others language🥴
However, schools can teach Spanish. Just like what most schools in USA. But turning Spanish as one of of our language is a BIG NO!
Hi. National language and official language are two different things. You can't say third national language because we only have 1, and that is Filipino. Our official language are 2, English and Filipino. I think in your comment, you meant to say, the third official language because there can be only 1 national language.
@drsgd - Spanish and English have more in common between them all the way to spelling (Probable, vital, original, rumor, etc) when it comes to words shared between the two languages. The structures between Spanish and Tagalog (my primary language) are way different. Knowing the words does not mean learning Spanish is easy.
@@jinj.7889 drsgd is misinformed. English is an international language the reason we learned it.
Magellan was the first Portuguese who came in the Philippines. However, Magellan named the Philippines - Archipelago de San Lazaro. It was Villalobos who named the Philippines as Las Islas Filipinas. In the 1800 most Mestizos (rich kid) spoke spanish and went mostly in Madrid to study. The famous novel of. Dr. Jose Rizal was written in Spanish. Most of the Filipino words came from Spanish, however they just have different spelling but have same sound.
Spanish language remained only in Zamboanga creating a (Spanish Creole language) spoken by 1million people.
Zamboanga City (Ciudad de Zamboanga) is the only Hispanic city in the Philippines. Arriving on its Airport "Bienvenidos a Zamboanga" will immediately greet you, names of local government offices is written in Spanish like "Oficina de Salud"(health office), police cars also named (Policía) etc. Thinking that you're in a Latin American country.
I think Zamboangans can communicate with Spanish speaking people but I don’t think Spanish speakers can understand Chavacano
@@Jprager
See you for yourself if they can understand each other or not
czcams.com/video/1fNSxGwJgCg/video.html
that's true I'm from Zamboanga city
In Ternate, Cavite there are also Chavacano speaking people.
@@nathblanca6280 yeah I saw a documentary about it and sadly it is a dying language there.
I used to Speak fluently Spanish during my early years in School (College days) because we have Spanish subjects....and after that, we almost forgot because we don't use it that often...but, still we can speak it & understand it too...It's nice to speak different languages especially if you love traveling...
That is a lie. Even Miriam Santiago did not learn Spanish from her college days. No one does. Unless you went to a non reputable university.
I don't agree that we could speak Spanish fluently after studying it in high school. I had high grades in Spanish in high school and UP but I still could not speak it fluently. It was just memorisation. To speak a language or dialect fluently we need practice, if we don't use it regularly we forget all the grammar and words we learned. We only retain words that have mixed with Tagalog but we cannot form complicated sentences and we can only understand words and simple sentences like Hola, Como esta? Que hora es? Etc. Como esta became kumusta in Tagalog.
Wow! Thank you guys for reacting to that video! 😍😃👍
when i was in college i have a spanish subject . . . and i am also a mestizo my grandfather is spanish and my mother is a half chinese . . . now i only know some few words in spanish . . .
My paternal and maternal grandparents are fluent in Spanish, my dad also... but all I know is "Mi Ultimo Adios" 🤣
That's what we had to memorize in high school.
Love your videos from Philippines 🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️
"What if we speak Spanish?" actually we were already adapted by the language, it just that a lot of colonizers came to the Philippines that is why Spanish isn't just the only tongue we're using today. I am contented to what happened in the country inspite of all the language influences.
But there has place who speak Spanish
love this reaction video 🙌
(1) fernando de magallanes travelled to the philippines looking for the spice islands, but he wasn't the one who unified us or named the archipelago after philip ii. (2) most of us natives didn't get spanish (or in fact ANY last or family names) until the 19th century, more than 200 years after the conquest. (3) besides spaniards not settling on our shores in droves unlike in latin america, our country wasn't colonized by soldiers as much as the missionary friars, and these friars studied our languages, printed grammar guides and catechism, and translated prayers from latin into the local language of whichever area they'd been assigned to. philip ii had ordered the colonizers to teach spanish to the natives, but bless them, they had perceived it was easier to get our trust and convert us if they learned our language instead.
Totally agree with you a 100%. Your comment is based on research, not hearsay
That interesting because a lot of tagalog words sound the same in Indonesia.
Like Pinto = pintu (door)
Anak = Anak (child)
And more
It is because our languages (indonesian and filipino languages) are Austronesian Language. That's why its similar, but we adopted a lot of spanish(castillan) and nahuatl(old mexican language) words. Examples of nahuatl words are NANAY or mother(came from the nahuatl word "Nana" and TATAY(father, came from the word "Tata".
Sakit naton di sini 😅😅😅
Prior to 1987, the teaching of Spanish in school is a MUST, meaning it is of the curriculum in college, however, after that year, the education department had made the teaching of the Spanish language ELECTIVE , hence, of course, the language had gradually died, faded away as most people were no longer exposed to the language, even to the sound of it ... though there are still some places in the Philippines wherein Spanish is still spoken by those natives to these places ... however, again, the difference could be noticeable!
The people who were. speaking Spanish during that time, prior to 1987, were those who were speaking Spanish at home.
It was already irrelevant in the 70s when I studied it in high school and university. I did not see the point of studying it but we needed to pass it. I was a good student of Spanish, found it easy and got high grades but I still could not speak it fluently due to lack of practice. Easy to forget. I still know some words like days, months, time, simple sentences but that's all. Unless you want to major in it, teach it or go to Spain to live there or study, it's completely useless.
I’m so happy 🥰✨🤍 love you guys!
As someone who studied English and currently studying Spanish, I'm still thankful that I started learning English at my very young age 'cause English is a complicated one. When I say complicated, I mean the phonetics as well as the dropped syllables, silent letters, etc. As for Spanish, it's easy especially the phonetics and stress (tilde).
Spanish is a totally different structure from English. The hardship of Spanish is not in the the syllable or spelling. For example in English am, is, are , was and were; that's all you have to remember. That's not so in Spanish, here are the equivalence depending on usage: era, éramos, eran, eras, eres, es, está, estaba, estabais, estábamos, estaban, estabas, estáis, están, estás, estoy, estuve, estuvieron, estuvimos, estuviste, estuvisteis, fue, fueron, fui, fuimos, fuiste, fuisteis, sois, somos, son, soy. Then there's the subjunctive present and the subjunctive past, six conjugations per tense
It's time to rectrify history and bring Spanish back as one of the official languages in the Philippines and reinstate it as one of the subjects or languages of instruction starting kindergarten until college, so that the Philippines can produce a generation of Filipinos (our children and their descendants) capable at speaking Spanish like we are doing with English.
agree... being linguist is an advantage
Es curioso que los filipinos son muy católicos , lo cual es que los curas y frailes les enseñaban la religión de España, como es que no aprendían el español los filipinos más pobres y alejados y la religión católica si. O es que los sacerdotes les hablaban en sus lenguas.
@@anacasanova7350 some friars learned Filipino dialects but many or even most didn't. Some connected with natives through native tongue but many didn't and speak only in Spanish. There's a lot more Filipinos who can speak Spanish or Spanish based creole in 1800's but now due to varieties of reasons they didn't. One of the major reasons is that a major uprising came with a man preaching anti-Spanish sentiments including the hate on Spanish language itself. He was Jose Rizal who became our national hero. He preached that whoever do not loves his native tongue is worse than animals and putrid fish. Though he can speak Spanish and writes a lot of his works in Spanish he encourages Filipinos to prioritize our language and replace Spanish with our own language if ever we can kick the colonizers out of our territory. He publish bitter anti Spanish satirical novels (Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo) in Spanish beside Tagalog to offend authorities and encourage for massive Filipino uprising. Unfortunately, the last Spanish Governor General to the Philippines caught and executed him in 1896, 2 years before Spanish came. But his words Is so successful many elites involved in uprising vowed to not teach Spanish (indirectly labeled as oppressor's language) to next generations. In other words, Spanish language was gradually lost and replaced due to very successful hate propaganda by the rebelling elites near the end of Spanish occupation and many of those propagandas were directing to the Spanish language itself.
I know many Filipinos may hate me for telling the truth, but our national hero Jose Rizal contributed a lot to make a huge decline on the use Spanish language. But I totally understand that he did it to preserve our existing languages in an attempt to recover what we lost before the colonizers came. And we should be proud that we are the only former Hispanic country to reinstate our own language back.
Yeah thats another 500 million people to be able to speak to
I really wanted to know another languange ontop of the others and learning young makes it easier
absolutely...
I attended a private catholic school and we have Spanish classes. I excelled in Spanish only in the classroom and as soon as the class is over we’re back to English/Tagalog conversation.
Exactly! Irrelevant in daily life
As a Filipino, one of my ancestors is also Spanish, and our surname/apelyido is Señora😊😊 and from our province which is in Bicol, lots of Spanish words are part of our dialect.
True im from bicol too
Hello guys how are you..I've been watching your videos and love your reactions..love you Philippines miss you so much especially my family
Trifate I'll been waiting to your SB19 REACTION and the Round Festival Performance I love the way you react about Filipino and by they why I'm from Philippines I hope the two of you react that thank you❤
I have watched your channel many times this is the first time I comment I enjoyed very much your channel you guys are cool not boring at all I learned a lot why Filipinos did not pick up spanish speaking country but somehow I learned speaking in my senior year but did not pay too much attention because I thought what for se you guys soon
The Napkin, the Nosebleed and the Bird. Love your reactions in EL's Planet.
When i went to college they already removed spanish in our subjects so i could not speak it, but many old folks do speak spanish because they learned it from school.
I did take Spanish but I did not become a Spanish speaker, just like my classmates
I love so much talaga sa ganitong content ninyo .. guys we use little tagalog on my txt im a 100% pilipino salamat both of you..
There video's make my day😁
No hablar Español pero I can try singing SB19 songs in Spanish hahaha..
Actually, those adopted Hispanic or specifically Spanish-sounding names (that were derived from native names and terms) are over 60,000 names that were given to those who have no family names and the Chinese-Mestizos.
If a Pinoy can find their Hispanic sounding name on the book, it's definitely not Hispanic in origin but Hispanicized.
My last name Carpio directly originated from Mexico o Peru, not Spain, but still Hispanic.
Conozco a varias personas, incluidos amigos, que tienen tu apellido. Salu2
Soy de Ecuador
in this time mexico or peru was Spain
The Philippines was colonized by Spain for 3 centuries. Never heard of Noli me Tangere and El Filibusterismo? it's the new generation who are mostly can't speak but they understand. Filipino names were mostly given by the colonizers. Si, hablamos Español.,, but we prefer to use Tagalog or Pilipino language for our
unique identity.Gracias.
I watched your El Planet feature video and I enjoyed it a lot, so fun to watch😆
Edit: SB19's Ken is from Zamboanga ;))
Ken is from CDO not from Zamboanga
I'm filipina born and raised in Bohol which speaks cebuano dialect and little bit of spanish.Even our prayers are in spanish too..
Very interesting history of the Philippines.
Castaño is one of the vast variety of surnames adopted to the Filipinos from Spanish Colonial widely spreaded from Visayas and Mindanao Rigion which is my very own surname and I love it
I have learned spanish because i was born in zamboanga, chavacano speaking city.. It is very easy to study and speak spanish because of the similarity, so it is easy to adjust.
Thanks iteresting topics
Great content
Love you both ❤️
DELA CRUZ is one of the most common surname here in the Philippines
My parental grandparents spoke Spanish because they were taught it in school and the culture still had a lot of Spanish media. Over the years in the 70s and on ward American media dominated. My parents took Spanish courses but because of not using it, they forgot.
By the time I went to school in the 90s, there was no Spanish requirement. I only learn to speak a little when I came to the US and worked at Burger King.
Many of the foods are the same as in Tagalog or Cebuano - cebollas, tomates, pepinos, queso, lechugas, leche, pimientos. Tomar - to drink.
Tocino is just bacon in Spanish but a dish in the Philippines.
After that, I could take orders in Spanish because I knew the numbers.
Hi. I'm new subscriber.
I love your Vlog....
i remember getting embarrassed when i was a kid, coz people or adults would use some spanish words, especially numbers, and i didnt know what they mean.
Uhhh you react my brother greetings from Indonesia
Spanish was part of the PH college curriculum, dwindling in the 80s and was eventually phased out.
Hablo espanol un poquito pero comprendo mucho all because it was included in the curriculum in my younger years..
Hola, como esta usted? New subscriber here from the philippines!
My middle initial is Mendoza and yeah "Mendoza" is very common here especially in Cebu.
When I was on High school we have Spanish classes but when I reach college the Spanosh subjects are changed to Sociology, Philosophy and Rizal ...So if we Filipinos want to learn Spanosh it would be easy because there are a lot of Spanish words in Tagalog and Ilocano...Aside from this I have observed that we easily learn another foreign language for conversation maybe because we are multilingual...Best example the OFW's they can speak the language of the place after a month or less of staying there..And lastly because we are adaptable...
From zamboanga here
Please do reach to old university in the Philippines 🙏🙏
New to you channel, more subs🙏🙏
Up to early 70’s many Filipino families speak fluent Spanish. The country’s college curriculum dropped the required two semesters of Spanish sometime in the mid 70’s.
Those who spoke Spanish during that time were already speakers of Spanish at home.
We had 4 sems of Spanish in UP Diliman in the 70s, not just 2.
Not many Filipino families spoke Spanish in the 70s. Only those with Spanish relatives.
im Filipino i want to learn Español
Go to Zamboanga City 😂, u will learn some Spanish there
Yes'nt
Our Language Is a Mix Language
Spanish English and The Tagalog
Gracias from😌philippines
Yes a lots of Filipino's surname are from Spanish name..like mine, Robles..my greatgreatgrandfather is Spanish.. especially Zamboanga City they talked spanish language..
I'm a Filipina but my bloodline is Spanish and even my family name. My grandmother is fluent in Spanish and bisayan dialect.
Filipinos use mix of various languages/ dialects during war time. They use mostly in Mindanao, Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan and of course during the Fil-American war, Fil- Spanish war, and against Japanese.
Do you have 2 channels? Because I just subscribed to your channel hours ago after watching your Mindanao vlog.
We have 3 actually haha
You have mentioned SB19, I am waiting for your reaction to their recent performance in the ASEAN Korea Round Music Festival.
Yes: "Touristy-Spanish," & buckling-down to it, we'll pass... porque estudiamos "basico-Español" en la escuela secondaria y colegio.
Tambien, there's a "Chavacano"/Spanish Creole-speaking," So.PHILS.province of Zamboanga...¡Vamos! 👏
Since my elementary time we used American English . Until my college and even in my work now.all reports we wrote in English.American influences are so strong.that’s why Pilipino are very competent to excel in any competitions.
Except Spanish.
These brothers are kinda smart. They used Filipinos or anything from the Philippines to make content, knowing Filipinos like being talked about by foreigners
Speaking of Spanish language, I remembered BGYO performing “Un Año”! You might wanna check that out! Their vocals are amazing!
Go in Zamboanga City my hometown there you can hear people speaking "Chavacano"
Spanish language until now is one of the courses we must take in college in the Philippines but even if it is one of the courses we must take in college, we just take it for the sake of completing our terms and graduate then after learning elementary and advance Spanish lesson in college, we forget all about it.
Only in some schools, in my college there's no Spanish lessons
@@NoVisionGuy is that so? You're lucky because you do not have Spanish lesson in this K-12 era🥲
Only the rich can study spanish. My grand father knows simple english because their teachers before were "american soldiers". He also said that their american soldier teachers were having a difficult time teaching them how to pronounce father and mother because they pronounce it as 'pader and mader'. It's because we don't have letter f in our alphabet.
Yup, my surname mentioned in this. Never miss a Mendoza.
I still remember when Spanish was still taught in 1st and 2nd year College, a lot of us school mates always cut classes to play billiards😂😁😂!!!
A lot of cebuanos dialect are mostly spanish...start from counting really exact Same with spanish counting unlike tagalog
My father can speak Spanish, English, and a bit Mandarin because my grandpa my papa father is half Spanish half Chinese then married to a filipina that was my grandma, and during my papa education that time they are study spanish in school.
I am a Cebuano and we use spanish words as well just like apelyido, edad, how we read the time for example
"alas otso, katorse" (8:14) and many more...Just as she say, we were colonized by Spain for 600 years. And I also think that we were influenced by them. While I was listening, I thought I she was lecturing an AP class , because we knew about Peninsulares, Insulares,Mestizos and etc. as it was a part of our history.
My grandmother on the father's side also understands Spanish and can speak it. And my last name is FERNANDEZ proud and loud mabuhay 😁
great history has ph...
We still have Spanish subject until late 60s and early 70s
I love being sb19 always mentioning by this two cute guys☺️
Eyyyow Tyler and Isaac😁
I still remembered when i was elementary I use to count Spanish words and don't know how to count by my own language like kinda weird 😅
There are still places in the phils that speak spanish like zamboanga.
4:56 FYI! Full name of SB19's Josh is Josh Cullen Alberto Santos.🤗
It's because my teacher said american wipe out Spanish and replace it english. till today we have it. Spanish is quite hard to pronounce English is easy. I even prefer English but also I tried Spanish. A lil bit. Later on in war Filipinos became united with American soldiers when Japanese invade the land and world war 2 blow. Our names today is base on English but the surname most were spanish and local.
Spanish sold us in the USA. before america come to us we almost defeated spanish. when america come to Philippines they help us but they also have a negotiation with Spanish that they going have a fake battle for exchange of 20million dollars. Spaniards don't accept the defeat to us Filipinos but they did in white.
I'm from Zamboanga City, Philippines. The dialect of people here is Chavacano, Chavacano is a Spanish-based creole language.
But still not Spanish, just Spanish-based
Guys no matter what language we have it does'nt matter guys kreep safe and don't change your mind visiting the Philippines ok god bless
We still have many Spanish words that Filipinos though were TAGALOGl.
Like silya and so many other words but I am lazy not right now to type
This is nice
Yes proud chavacana here...

The way the guy on the left said “Isabela” he thought it was ITALIAN. lol
My name is Alfredo Felipe from Philippines 🇵🇭
Our grandfather.. Great grandfather speaks Spanish coz they were taught strictly by Spaniards occupying Philippines.. Only in the late 80's it was abolished in our education curriculum.
Filipinos in the 1800s speak fluent Spanish but gradually the dominant language changed to Tagalog and English after WWII
during my grand parents time,the teachers teach english and spanish,my grandma is fluent in speaking spanish,they dont speak tagalog during their time
