Honestly, we use quite a lot of english words in Phils and sometimes we even forgot the meaning in our own dialect from english.

ie. i dont know what's in tagalog of cellphone. I knew telepono means telephone.
And Computer, Calculator, Ruler, Toothpaste ah too many to mention. You guys can help me to translate these?

Very true :xxgrinning--00xx3:
And fitz, i suppose you can address Mr and Mrs to your letter as we normally do in the philippines, specially if it's a formal letter :xxgrinning--00xx3:
Just a suggestion though :D:D

Hi Philip,

If you will make a correspondence in Filipino/Tagalog you can use Ginoo at Ginang (abbreviation: G. at Gng.) but if you will write in English, best to use Mr. & Mrs. :xxgrinning--00xx3:
