As "Buwan ng Wika" draws to a close, imagine bidding farewell with a celebration that captures the heart of Filipino culture in all its colors and sounds. Unravel the richness of the Filipino language with our collection of deep words that are rarely used. Dive into the world of Tagalog words and discover the beauty, nuances, and complexity of this vibrant language.

Some of the Filipino words that you don’t know exist.

Fun fact: The pre-colonial writing script of the Tagalogs in the Philippines is Baybayin, an alphabet with 17 symbols that represent 14 consonants (katinig) and 3 vowels (patinig); it was initially used to sign documents, write poetry, and communicate before we were introduced to the alphabet we know today.

THE LAST LETTER TO THE LOVER I NEVER HAD

Farewells are never my thing, but I bade you goodbye
I never knew it was the last glimpse I had of you
Forgive me if I never returned the spark in your eyes
If only I'd realized then, I'd pull out these words from my tongue.

𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐚 𝐏𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐨: 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐩𝐮𝐩𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐭 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠

Ang araw na ito ng Agosto 26, 2024, ay minarkahan ang isang kapansin-pansing pangyayari sa kasaysayan bilang pagbibigay ng sukdulang karangalan ng mga Pilipino sa mga pambansang bayani. Idinaraos ito tuwing huling Lunes ng Agosto upang magtampok sa pagiging makabayan at mapagkalingang mga Pilipino.

Ngayong paggunita sa araw ng mga Pambansang Bayani, hinihikayat ang lahat na buksan ang mata, puso at isipan na ang araw na ito ang naiwan na bakas sa ating kalayaan, bunga ng pawis at talsik ng dugo ng bawat Pilipinong sumakripisyo sa pakikipaglaban patungo sa ating kalayaan.

"Ang tunay na pag-alala sa ating mga bayani ay hindi sa pagsasaulo ng kanilang pangalan, kundi sa pagsasabuhay ng kanilang mga prinsipyo," ika nga ni Andres Bonifacio.

Saludo kami sa inyo, mga natatanging bayani ng ating bayan!

Do you ever look at someone and wonder? What is going on inside the freshmen’s heads? 🧐

As they navigated their way through this cascade of emotions —from the thrill of new beginnings and the anxiety of the unknown to the joy of connecting with peers and the thoughts of stepping into their future careers. The Frosh Day event was indeed a precious core memory for these students.

The day seamlessly weaved friendships, connections, and unforgettable experiences that they would carry throughout their lives. Their perceptions of the event may vary, but one thing is clear:
“Change is scary, but sometimes it leads to great things.” - Fear

From its humble beginnings as a small town to its current status as a thriving and respected city, Iloilo City celebrates its 87th Charter Day on August 25 with the theme “Rise, Iloilo City: Remarkable Ilonggos Sustaining Excellence at 87.”

Known as the the “City of Love,” Iloilo City is celebrated for its rich cultural heritage, warm-hearted Ilonggos, and dynamic industries that have driven its economic success and garnered widespread acclaim.

The city’s journey to autonomy began when President Manuel Luis Quezon signed Commonwealth Act No. 158, officially establishing Iloilo as a Chartered City by merging the municipalities of Jaro, Molo, La Paz, Mandurriao, and Arevalo.

Mayor Jerry Treñas has announced that this year’s Charter Day celebration will be the “biggest and grandest” in the city’s history, with festivities that honor a diverse group of outstanding individuals and departments within the Ilonggo community.

"There is no greater nation on earth than our Motherland. No greater people than our own. Serve them with all your heart, with all your might and with all your strength.”

Ninoy Aquino Day is annually celebrated every 21st of August. This is to commemorate the assassination of former Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr., the husband of Corazon Aquino, who later became the eleventh Philippine President. He was assassinated on August 21, 1983, on the tarmac of Manila International Airport (now named Ninoy Aquino International Airport in his honor).

The flame for freedom and democracy that burns brightly inside every Filipino's soul was stoked by Ninoy's passing. His passing will always be marked in this nation's history. This day will always honor the life and contributions of a cherished freedom hero.
