Posts: 4567Sorry fifty, but that wasn't very helpful.
I don't like to see new faces come on and immediately start name calling or giving personal attacks. I'm not sure what is going on, but it should be discouraged.

Posts: 4567This is over the top -- we suddenly have a few NEW members who immediately compliment AV or name-call him. If an ISG member is using multiple personalities to increase PI thread antagonism, then he should be ashamed of himself.

Its easy to misunderstand I guess for ears used to different accents.
In everyday taglish you will often hear people address men as 'Boss', 'Kuya' or just add the suffix 'Pa' at the end of a sentence or prepend 'Pare' at the beginiing of a sentence . There is a whole subculture of Taglish slang as well.
Quick reference http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/kuya
Tagalog speakers are pronouncing the word ate as ar'-tay.
In colloquial usage is often shortened to 'Te (Pronouned as 'Tay)
Careful with this, the Tagalog word for shit is Tae.. ;)
The vowels are soft in Tagalog unlike our anglicised hard pronunciation of vowels.
Are your eyes glazed yet?
Lots of info about all the languages of this diverse country here

As to squirming eels and slippery fish, I think you must definately be a monger - a fishmonger:) Admittedly I do go overboard on the KY sometimes -the girls insist on it you know - erm its a size thing :D

It is used by younger Filipino's of both sexes to an older and respected relative but is often heard outside the family group when a younger person is addressing you in a respectful and deferential manner.
Don't be alarmed if a Filipino call you Kuya (pronounced Queer), they are not imputing that you are a turd burgler but are been very polite and would be most put out if you punched their lights out

Posts: 4567ate
I just realized that I posted quite a long message (an apology to 50) that was off topic here at Filipinas thread. Let me do penance by trying to change the topic.
Any contact with Philippines culture and you will come across the word "ate", which I think can be translated as Auntie or older sis, but has a lot of nuances. You'll find similar things elsewhere in Asia, and I assume it's Confucian influence. Hmm, I know there are a lot of Chinese in Philippines (and the rest of SE Asia), but I don't know the history. I'll have to study that a bit.
You may have read posts here at ISG that implied the oldest daughter has to support the parents in their old age and sometimes the younger siblings as they make their way through the education system. That is "ate"...a position of power and respect and heavy responsibility.
In most of East Asia, that responsibility falls on the eldest male. (***see foot note).
In Phil. it falls on the eldest female.
Filipinas will also refer to senior status women as "ate". It is a word of respect...and respecting seniority and class is important in most of Asia.
I don't live in the Philippines and I won't pretend to be an expert...hope someone will pick up the thread from here....
***: enjoy the Philippines now, as there will soon be approx. 30million surplus men in China and other Chinese influenced cultures in SE ASIA, not to mention Korea. Modern tech, old fashioned ingenuity, and one -child policy means that families who favor boys, have boys. I just had dinner with a Malaysian/C guy who was the third sibling....two older sisters. He assured me that he would not have been born if one of his siblings had been a male. BTW, Japan seems to be the only sensible one in this respect. Most have no prediliction for males.

Posts: 4567I never saw that post, so I apologize for suggesting that you didn't do a field report on Jools. I appreciate you taking the time to argue your point -- it seems much more productive than ignoring / dismissing the points as is common with responses given by AV. (He has a right to his style, and he has already told me he doesn't care what I think)
Of course your ending comment "constant picking...of AV and others" seems off the mark since it is only AV that has come to my attention as a serial misinformer. I guess it could be perceived as picking, but my intent is not to [CodeWord140] anyone off, but to get to the truth....as we have done here!
As for AV's visa post, I did not mean to imply that it wasn't informative. It was informative and it answered the original question. You complimented him and went so far as to suggest he had inside info at PI immigration. This piqued my interest so I searched for Phillipines + visa and found the same info - verbatim - in the top URL in my Google search. Maybe AV is an English proofreader at the Justice Ministry. Which probably means I'll have trouble next time I try to get in country!
There was a lot of other info there so I posted the URL. It really hurt me that no one complimented me. :-)
Once again, sorry for not doing my homework and missing your original Makati / Jools field report.

no field report, no info - my arse

Posts: 4567fifty, i don't remember the exchange the same way you do. is this just an oversight, or are you deliberately distorting the facts? or am i mistaken?
this was your quote: "rleatively speeaking, the 500 pesos she has asked for, is less than a lady drink in joules on burgos - now that bar is a scam !!"
you didn't give any other info -- no field report, so i had no way of knowing the bar format changed, nor did i know at what time you had been there, or even if you had been there. twice you've criticized me for giving a six year old report, but there had been isg posts on jools that were far more recent -- i recall none that gave the info you did. and i do appreciate getting that info.
my first post was simply about vocabulary -- (scam / rip off). later i explained my memories of jools at which point you gave me more details. i based my comments on what i knew (key word) and i clearly mentioned it was a six-yr old report. i don't think you can say i "repeatedly" challenged your report ....especially since the first post could hardly be called a report. come to think of it i gave my "outdated" report before you had explained anything -- certainly before you mentioned that you had been there recently. sorry, i'm not a mind reader.
what do you mean back peddle? i gave an ancedote about a real experience i had. i appreciate you informing me about the changes, but it was simply an exchange of information. maybe you and av should give more real reports instead of getting all indignant when someone has different experiences and opinions than yourself.
you're quick to criticize me, yet there you are complimenting av for his visa post which must have taken 10 seconds to cut and paste out of the philippinges govt web site.
i've tried to take your earlier advice and be less confrontational, swing my handbag less, and look how much good it's done. av, who has consistently failed to back up his assertions with field reports, or even ancedotes, is now taking anonymous snipes at me every chance he gets. congratulations on giving him some cajones. (last paragraph was meant to me humorous rather than insulting to anyone.)
