Kilalanin ang mga “alon” ng Baybayin

Posted on August 27, 2017

Nitong Hulyo, naging usapin sa social media ang Wikang Filipino. Nag-ugat ang diskurso dahil sa mga larawang umikot na nagpapakita sa mga produkto’t kumpanyang nakatala ang mga pangalan sa makalumang sistema ng pagsulat o script na Baybayin. Samu’t sari ang naging reaksyon. May mga natuwa sa layunin ng larawan na ilahad at ipalaganap ang makulay nating wika’t kultura, at may mga nag-amok dahil daw di-umano’y mali ang pag-presenta at paggamit ng nasabing sistema. Gayunpaman, nagkaroon ng diskurso sa ating wika at nahimok ang atensyon ng kabataan patungkol ditto.

Posted on August 27, 2017

Madalas na itinuturo sa mga paaralan ang iba’t-ibang gramatika at bokabularyo ng wikang Filipino. Simula noong tayo ay nasa mababang baitang pa lamang ng pagiging estudyante ay mayroon na tayong mga guro na nagtuturo ng ating wika. Sa kabila nito ay kapansin-pansin na marami rin ang hindi bihasa sa paggamit ng wikang Filipino. Bagamat ginagamit natin ito sa pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay at pakikipagtalastasan, maraming Pilipino pa rin ang hindi maalam sa wastong paggamit nito.
