Is there any Ilocanos here or anyone who knows how to speak Ilocano?

I'm from Alaminos City, Pangasinan and it'll be great to chat with fellow Ilocanos online.. :NoNo:

It's nice to hear from you sillybilly... have you got facebook so we can also keep in touch there? :xxgrinning--00xx3:

I haven't been to Pozorrubio.. do you speak pangasinense there? I can't speak and can't understand Pangasinense lol! but I'm fluent with Ilocano as it's the main dialect in Alaminos. But having said that, a lot of Alaminians now usually speak Tagalog hehe!

I was just wondering where do you live? Are you in the Philippines? I miss Pangasinan :NoNo:

Well, I'm not really bothered whether she's from Baguio or somewhere else from the Northern Philippines as long as she can speak Ilocano. I have a realation in Baguio :).. I've been there before and wanted to visit the place when I'm back home hopefully this year.

It means: Oh yes it's nice to have a talk with Ilocano

hehe! sorry about that.. it's a bit complicated for you:icon_lol: I understand don't worry..

I can't believe my hubby also thinks the same everytime I do talk Ilocano to my family back home. :doh My brother's wife studied in Baguio City as well as my cousin in University of the Philippines, Baguio.

hopefully on November.. i can't wait! It's been 6years since I left so it's like a dream come true for me to come home soon :Rasp:

I love the countryside but we also have a place in Taguig so I'll be also looking forward to explore a bit of Manila. My hubby loves Intramuros as he stayed in Hotel Intramuros when we first met. It reminded him of England. :crazy:
