I would definitely snicker. Then after that I would say Its like
youre saying that a pig is a reptile, a triangle has 4 equal sides, puppies
are young cats, an elephant can fly up high into the sky, 1+1=7, the title
of the Philippine national anthem is Bayang Magiliw, Binay is a mestizo,
P-noy has the same hairstyle as Justin Bieber and my you heard my mom
saying that Im ugly even once. Well, if you do believe it then I would
accept that Ilocano is a dialect and not a language. Because as far as I
know, Ilocano has two dialects and these are Amianan and Abagatan. And
dont hold it against me if Im wrong, I just learned it from my Lingg 1
professor so if you ever get in trouble because of this, look for him and
not me.
I think that hundred years from now, our native languages would
prosper and shine once again while the languages that we currently use
would also remain. Just kidding. Honestly, hundred years is a pretty long
time and I personally think that the Philippines would only have one
language, its either English / Chinese or there would be a new language.
Also, you should be the one to adjust and not them because first is
who the hell are you and second thing is who the hell are you again. This
is to prevent misunderstandings, to prevent being labeled as an outsider
or feign superiority and cause discomfort to others. This policy is a really
good thing because you will feel like you belong, that youre not out of
place, that you are not different and all alone. You will have that sense of
family and will not start to miss your own family because you already
have one in this place. And learning their language would also help you
develop new mindsets because language is a way to adapt to a culture.
