beatricemata:

Kinukumutan Ka ng Aking Titig
Ruth Elynia Mabanglo

Kinukumutan ka ng aking titig -
Isang siyudad ng pag-ibig:
Dilim na binabagtas ng mga hipo,
Liwanag na kaakibat ng mga pangako.
Nililiyo ako ng mga haplos,
Binubura ng mga alaala.
Ay, tila ugat akong nabubunot,
Umaangat,
Lumilipad,
Mga mata’y nag-uulap.

Nilalakbay ko ang katawan mo,
Buwan akong umiikot
Sa iyong sinukob,
Nilulukob kita hanggang panaginip,
Nilalagok ang iyong tinig,
Natitigmak ako hanggang buto,
Humahagod sa ligamgam ng iyong hininga,
Humihimlay sa iyong mga halik
Hanggang alaala’y mapaknit
At sa pusod ko’y sumanib.

Mahal, ako’y napapapikit.

Smart Confessions: Now you're just somebody that I used to know:

ikemensan:

Hindi naman lahat ng relationship ay nauuwi sa happy ending. Kahit na matagal na kayong magkasama, hindi pa rin natin maiiwasan ang magkasawaan at nauuwi ito sa break-up. Kaya hindi sukatan or batayan ang haba ng taon na pinagsamahan nyo para masabing nasa isang perfect relationship kayo kasi once…

pancit-anton:

Let’s try to apply linguistics to further understand the aforementioned expressions used by many Filipinos today.

1) Pabili ng Colgate, yung Close-Up. Though the speaker is clearly confused, this one is what we call Coinage. Take for example band-aid, kleenex, xerox, nylon and zipper among others. We use them to refer to the product.

5) May tonsil ako. Tonsillitis is the infection of the tonsils. So this one is really wrong right here.

9) Pwedeng makuha number mo? Translated in English, “Can I get your number?” Now, is there anything wrong with this expression? Basically nothing. Number here refers to your cellphone number. Other countries use ‘digits’.

2), 3), 4), 6), 7) I would say don’t fall too much into the Vice-Ganda craze. We have what we call Communicative Competence which says that speakers should have more than the knowledge of grammar in order to communicate effectively. And what is this specifically? Pragmatics. It is the knowledge of how the language is used in communication situations. These are the things you need to consider: 1) Context of utterance. When, where, how the expression was said. 2) The goals of the speaker. and 3) The general principles of communication.

So the next time we hear people say things similar to these, let’s check first before branding them as errors. Who knows it’s not an error, but it’s just plain pedantry.

Watching a youtube video on #ColtonDixon’s elimination on AI, I felt his heart and soul when he knelt down and sang Everything. He looked above and sought for his Everything. Clearly, he is grateful to his GOD who have been giving him grace and resilience all through these years. He was cut last season and didn’t make it to top 24. This year he had no plans of auditioning yet the judges urged him to. He was never in the bottom 3 until a bad romance stopped his idol journey. Winning the title wasn’t really for him. I believe he was on the show not to win but to show how God is his everything. Seeing him leaving the show has a poignant ache in my heart. I would miss a performer who always gives glory to his savior. I know its not the end of his journey. Like what his fans call him, he is The Messenger.
