About Filipino names

Non-Filipinos who marry Filipinos must be warned that certain repeating syllable names are reserved for sexual organs and should never be used to nickname their children. "Titi" or "Tite" is the Tagalog word for "penis," while "Kiki" or "Kike" is the Tagalog word for "vagina". "Tito" or "Kiko" are acceptable names, however, as "Kiko" is usually a nickname for "Francisco" but the parents should be keen to raise these children as overconfident, bullies or out-of-school youths, as these names mutate into "Tite" and "Kike" once the children get into high school.
Parents also like to name their little boys names that remind everyone else that their kids are, in fact, male. Examples are Boy, Manny and Boyet.

Once again an example of geographical separation is exemplified by the naming of children. When it was agreed by the urbanized Manilans that "Nene" was to only refer to girls, the Visayas and Mindanao areas have, to this day, been nicknaming their male children "Nene" and "Lili." This continues on to their adult lives, hence some Filipinos have uncles whom they call "Tito Nene," "Tio Nene," "Tito Lili" or "Tio Lili." "Lilly," "Lily" which are girl's names, and "Lili," which is a nickname for both men and women, have no distinguishable variations in pronunciation.For some reason, the accepted nickname for "Maria" is "Angge", pronounced "UNG-geh" or "UNG-gi." It would appear that since the Philippines is prodominantly Catholic, "Maria" is acceptable for birth and baptismal certificates, but for practical purposes no Filipina is clean enough to be called by the name of the Mother of God. Hence, Maria, unlike other countries who also use the name, gets "uglicized" in the Philippines. This also continues to their adult life. Thus most Filipinos would call their grandmothers "Lola Angge" and not "Lola Maria."

This is in stark contrast with the male usage of the Holy Family. Jose, Joseph and Jesus (Heh-sous) are normal names for Filipino males. The 1920's to 1950's saw a trend of adding "-ing" to the nicknames. This does not necessarily shorten the names, however, nor is it any attempt to make their children sound cuter. "Felicia," for example became "Pilising." "Maria" became "Maring" (if not "Angge" as explained above). "Gundina" or "Segundina" became "Gunding." "Cecilia" became "Siling" ("See-LING"). "Francisco" became "Prasing" ("Prah-SING") or "Paking" (Pah-KING). And inexplicably, "Vicente" became "Inting". As to be expected, people in the provinces have continued to do this practice, oblivious to the trends of the more urbanized pockets of the Philippines, especially Manila. "Jun," for example, continues to become "Juning" ("Joo-NING).
On slightly fewer occasions, the "-ang" suffix was also used during those years. "Matilda" became "Mitang," "Cecilia" became "Sisang." "Maxima" became "Simang."

In the 1950's and 1960's, there was a trend to spell and pronounce names backwards. Ex. Chito became Otich and Nick became Kinik. A popular comedian, who is now close to a hundred years of age, Dolphy, will once in a while be called "Pidol" by his "contemporaries." The late actress, Nida Blanca, was called "Ading" ("Ah-DING"). Thus it would be observed that some people who grew up together during that era are comfortable calling each other backwards while the younger generation cannot even begin to, so to speak, "get in on the action." In the 1970's and 1980's, another trend came about when Filipinos started lengthening their names by adding unnecessary letters to their names. "Boyet" became "Bhoyette" and "Manny" became "Mhanny". "Nanette," which had already became acceptable as such, further mutated into "Nhanhette." Even "Boy" became "Bhoy."

The name "Claudia" seems to have been only recently introduced as an acceptable name for Filipino girls. As such, only the presently younger generation would have "Claudia" in their birth and baptismal certificates.

Information! Information!

Filipinos have gazillions of other languages, dialects, and sub-dialects. One other popular language is called Ilocano. Ilocano is a Germanic like Filipino language where they make up new words by combining a whole bunch of words into one. Broken down, its name is actually a mix of English and Spanish "I loca, no?" which means "I crazy, yes?"
Although Filipinos are naturally hospitable and like to speak to Foreigners or Tourists, the latter must watch out for possible misunderstandings. A famous tourist spot, Fort Santiago, in Metro Manila, is prounounced as "Poh-chan-chah-goh" by 99% of the Manilans
Equally misunderstood by a lot of tourists is what they pronounce as "Bawl To May Sah Boulevard" when asking for directions. This is spelled "Bawal Tumae sa Blvd." which is a sign all busy boulevards have, which tells Filipinos "Do not Shit on the Boulevard". It is not a name of a single street, so if you are a tourist, do not ask Filipinos for the direction to get back to your hotel, mentioning that your hotel is in fact near "Bawl To May Sa Blvd."

If you see Filipino males holding hands in the busy streets of Metro Manila, be aware that this is common practice among Filipino males who are not necessarily gay. The real reason for holding hands is that these males come from the rural areas, usually the Visayas and Mindanao islandsThey hold hands so that they do not lose one another in the big city which speaks a language they might not be able to speak themselves. Metro Manila is known for rampant corruption that even the police usually do not bother giving directions to provincial people who cannot fatten their wallets.

Tourists who are diabetic must be aware that they would only be understood by Filipinos if they tell them they have "Jah-BEH-tess". A word or warning: For any medical emergencies regarding your diabetic condition, correctly pronouncing diabetes will only hasten your death

Info abt Filipinos

For some reason, Filipinos have a hard time distingishing the difference between the letters "P" and "F" as well as "V" and "B". Likewise, "CH" is "TS" and "TS" is "CH". "S" is "SH" and "SH" is "S". "TH" is either "T" or "D" but "T" and "D" remain correctly prounounced. They think it's perfectly acceptable to interchange them in most sentences but adding to the confusion is the mispronunciation of vowels.

Short "a" (ex. apple) can be pronouned "ai" (ex. vain) or "uh" (ex. Duh). Short "e" (ex. sex) can become short "i" (ex. "Lit's hab six!"). Short "o" and "u" can become short "a" (ex. "The boy is flaying. He is speening a tap.", "Ganshat wound").
Hence, names such as Padilla (pa-DEEL-ya ... or the more correct pa-DEE-ya), Sevilla (se-VEEL-ya / se-VEE-ya) or Revilla (re-VEEL-ya / re-VEE-ya) end up being pronounced as puh-DILL-yuh, suh-VILL-yuh and ruh-VILL-yuh. Actually, only the conyos and Filipinos affecting American accents make this mistake in pronunciation.

Some info for u all!!!

The Philippines has one of the most disgusting cuisines in the world, and much of what passes for food there would gag a drunken Scotsman. Filipinos are wont to boil their meat and fish in plain water, and a red meat of unknown origin boiled with weeds and a peeled banana is considered a meal as long as it is served with plain white rice. Pretty much anything organic served with plain white rice and a spoon is considered a meal.
Taho is bean curd mixed with tapioca balls and arnibal, which is liquefied sugar. The bean curd is called taho, and is not to be confused with taho which is the drink.
Beer na Beer is a beer whose name can literally be translated to "It's really beer!" It is made by the Asia Brewery, Inc., and it is not good.
San Mig Light is a brand of light beer in the country. It is basically beer with water added to it to make it seem like it is light beer. It pretty much sucks. If you get drunk off it, better rethink about drinking alcoholic drinks.
Puto is not to be confused with the Spanish word for George W Bush
Chicharon Bulaklak is deep fried foreskin with salt. Best served with spicy vinegar.
Filipinos don't mind eating something that is looking at them. Fish are boiled whole, and roast suckling pig or lechon is served, head intact, with a sauce that resembles sugared gravy. Hey, the head's the best part, right?
Balot is an aborted duck chick still in its shell. It is used by most Filipinos as an initiation tool for poor foreigners who don't know what it is. It is also the reason that abortion issues are still being debated in the country.

Nen Ability

Nen's Nature

Each person is capable of master only one type of Nen ability, this is destined at birth, so if you are not happy with the type of Nen ability you have, it's impossible to change or switch to another one (with the exception of Kurapica, please read on for more info).

How to test your Nen ability?

In order to tell what type of Nen ability you possess, you need a glass of water and a piece of leaf.

Put the leaf inside the water and then hold your hands around the glass, not touching it, then release your Nen ability or power (don't try this at home ^_~).

If you've mastered the basis of the Nen skills, below are some of the possible happenings:

  1. The water will spill out of the cup, this means your Nen ability is Strength (Fellow Nen users: Gon)
  2. The water's chemical content changes (eg, the taste changes), this means your Nen ability is Transformation (Fellow Nen users: Killua)
  3. The water's shape changes (eg, it becomes a solid), this means your Nen ability is Materialization (Fellow Nen users: Kurapica)
  4. The leaf inside the glass floats, this means your Nen ability is Manipulation (Fellow Nen users: Zushi)
  5. Some other phenomenon occurs, this might indicate you have a special Nen ability that is unique or is rare among others.

Access your Nen ability using your personality

This is the great Hisoka's way of identifying different person's (rivals and friends) Nen ability. It's almost always accurate, but since most lack the special skills Hisoka possess, it is more wise to use the glass x leaf x water method indicated above.

  • Naive, single-minded - Strength
  • Unpredictable nature. Loves to fabricate lies - Transformation
  • Highly sensitive person, with a rich imagination - Materialization
  • Has a liking for lecturing others, very stubborn - Manipulation

Is it possible to master more than one Nen ability?

Technically, it is impossible to possess more than one Nen ability. But Kurapica was able to achieve this since he's from a special tribe and also since he made an oath that binds him from using his other Nen abilities on anyone but the Ryodan members. Kurapica must also turn his eyes to the red color when he's using other Nen abilities, he has trained himself to do this when needed.
