MERGED: Modern Education, Literacy and English Proficiency

[junmar4]

Dong, ang Filipino na subject Tagalog lagi na in essence.

Mao ba nang? Sa inyo siguro. Sorry but dili man gud sa amoa.

Well, actually Filipino nga subject adtong elementary...the teachers called it Filipino, but we were taught in Tagalog. So, sorry jud Mr JunMar, mao man gitudlo sa mga maestra adtong elementary ko, so I've always thought of Filipino as synonymous to Tagalog.

Mao na ang problema kay we always jump into conclusion without any facts presented.

Bahalag hagbong basta naa lang ghapon ang sentido kumon nga makasabot mubasa og post. ur not at urself. paniudto usa. peace!

aw klaro na... pero dili kamao kuha sa unod sa post...

I rest my case...

Asa man diay ka gikan na school nga dili man tagalog ang inyong Filipino? Ikaw ra gani walay facts nga gi-present pag-ingon nimo nga corroboration of ALL ACCEPTED DIALECTS and Filipino. hehehe, makalingaw sad ka da

Mr JunMar, sorry mga bulok siguro to akong mga maestra sa elementary. The fact was, we were taught Tagalog in Filipino subjects. Ikaw diay Mr JunMar, adtong elementary ka, gi unsa pag tudlo sa teacher ang Filipino subject? Did she teach you Filipino in Tagalog? or Ilonggo? or Waray? or Chavacano?

@victor3:

That's why I said we have to revise it, not totally abolish and remove it in the curriculum, maybe in college pwede siguro. Aside from the pangngalan, pantukoy, pandiwa and all the other pans- out there, I also learned Ibong Adarna and Florante at Laura in my Filipino subject in high school. As I said before, it gives us a sense of identity, it makes us proud of being Filipinos and who we are. True enough wala'y gamit when it comes to our careers (not unless if one becomes a Filipino teacher), but at least somehow we've got something that we're proud in, aside from the sense of identity, it also gives us a sense of nationalism since we know that we've got something that we can be proud of, where would we learn about Filipino arts like Ibong Adarna and Florante at Laura kung wala ang Filipino nga subject.

I suggest that Filipino history should also be included or merged with the Filipino subject to lessen the subjects, after all it's all about Filipinos and the Philippines.

Remove mga El Fili og Noli Me mga walai gamit subjects... laos na kaau na oi... kwan sad Philippine History... pila ra pag search sa internet kung ganahan ka mkahibaw sa Philippine History hahayz... paita Math, English, Science, IT subjects mga importante sa panahon karon... my opinion ra na ha hehe

[Dorothea]

Ay dili pud nindot i-remove ang El Fili ug Noli, unsaon nalang, luoy si Crisostomo Ibarra, Maria Clara and Sisa.

Tagalog/Filipino is the lingua franca of the country. When you go outside the Visayan region, there is a need for a common language for people of various ethnic groups within the country to communicate. Hence there is a practical need to learn it.

Btw, history as a subject is essential because we need to learn the lessons of the past to ensure we don't make the same mistakes again.

It is not in the mastery and fluency of the English language that serves as basis as to how smart or intelligent a person is.

unsa kaha kun atong national language kay Filipino pero majority sa words are Cebuano/Bisaya, thus Filipino subjects will be taught using Cebuano. duna pa kahay moreklamo dinhi? hehehe
