Well, originally, we had a rule to not post in tagalog or filipino here in RR. But because we've been having meets regularly and have become soft and casual, in ways, good things but add that to having foreign members who end up being dumbfounded because of the language that's new to them, I decided to srat this thread.

If you guys have any questions, just post it here, if you guys need tagalog or filipino to english translations, post it here, we'll be more than happy to help out.
What does ,,,,,,, mean?

It shits on everything I've learned about punctuation marks.

I don't use these ",,,,,," I use these "....."

If I use comas, my sentence should look like this. Right? (not used to it xP )

Putang ina.

Puta = whore

ina = mother.

Adding the 'ng' suffix to the end of most nouns ending in vowels turns them into adjectives.

Can also be related to "son of a b*tch"
It's not related, IT IS son-of-a-bitch.
No. Son of a bitch is referring to the bastard child of a mother whore. Putang ina is literally just a mother who also happens to be a whore.
Filipinos are more direct XD

common words ...

katakam-takam = Drool

sugpo = prawns
