No I know some of them are extremely good English speakers, they are just shy.
When they do speak English they are easy to understand.
I say this because many in my family and amongst our neighbours in Manila are shy to speak but I have heard them speak really good English at other times.
Some of them speak bamboo-english,but a lot of pinays speak better gramatically correct english than a native brit,some have vocabs like a dictionary,I know a couple of pinay ladies who teach english in Thailand.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
well that is good news then,,,that is what we always trying to fight back in philippines,lols the hiya,,,shyness .
and this is what i like in this thread is i can talk , untill you all guys fall sleep,
The few Tagalog words I got stashed away, Iv'e been forbidden to use! The wife hates me using them. The words like Mahal and Maganda etc etc are worse in her eyes, coming from a westerner makes her feel sick. So I got stick to English, lucky me

grrrrrrrrrrrr... well matey just read my new post then,,,,copy paste so i dont make anymore mistakes,,,i hope ,hehehe,,,,,,
My wife does not like being called mahal maganda etc etc
So I just call her bonga
Sometimes I call her kuripot, coz she never has her money with her when she buys shoes and handbags.
