RE: CM Report: Oct Week 2 Activities - From 91 to 101 Translators

Hey @ruah, thanks and great to know a bit about Tagalog. It would be great if you can educate me a bit about the difference between the two. So Filipino is currently the one that is being used in the Philippines now where Tagalog is more 'traditional' and used by the older people?

    Yeah you're right, writing tagalog is more preferred in writing in school projects with the subject Filipino.
    And less than 20% of Filipino people are able to write Tagalogwith perfect accuracy, most of that 20% lives here in Manila which is the origin of the Tagalog language at the beginning that the law was implemented Filipino and Tagalog is 100% similar, in terms of writing and speaking the words, but since the Filipino are tend to improvise, It makes a huge change now and both languages are very different now.

    for example, tagalog are meant to write as pure tagalog while Filipino you can write it as tag-lish or tagalog-english, you don't have to translate most of the common english words because pinoys are already used to English language. you can even use transliteration in Filipino to provide a translation for English word which is not able to do in Tagalog
