Yes. We have been colonized by spain and america for a long time hence the influence. See, for "table" we easily say "lamesa" instead of the correct Fulipino term "hapag kainan" .
For "chair" we normally say "silya" instead of "upuan"... 😉😅
Lamesa? Instead of mesa? Interesting! La mesa means actually "the table". Chair is silla in spanish. That is great! I never knew they were so similar. I really want to visit the Philippines... one day!! 😊
