jumpman611 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 only use them in the proper context and spelling... otherwise, it never fails to annoy. Quote Link to comment
sha79 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 "po" should be used everytime you want to be courteous in a tagalog conversation. Ā "koyah" - i have no idea how this is used. siguro pag gusto mo ipaamoy yung hininga mo sa kausap mo. parang "hi koyahhhhhh.." sa mukha ng kausap mo.natawa ko d2. hindi naman sguro para lng ipaamoy ung breath mo. Ā its a sign of respect lng para sa mga tagalog peeps..at sa iba p. yet sa mga visayan..hindi uso ang po at opo. Quote Link to comment
hottlipss Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 (edited) i find it annoying when someone uses "po" to me on texts and emails...prang condescending ang datingĀ but i teach my kids to say po, opo, kuya and ate, manang, manong (wali or ading) and of course mag mano as a sign of respect...and of course any filipino they encounter with are all "titas" and "titos"kahit man lang yung kultura nating yun gusto kong maibahagi sa kanila.

fly Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Correct its sometimes annoying to hear that more so if the persons' age is almost the same as yours . Its also annoying to hear when you are at the club and the GRO KEEPS ON SAYING PO LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
maui25 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 i used po and koyah sa ibang tao, or outside the house, depende rin sa kausap mo, usually sa mga elders nalang talaga, sometimes kc pag nararamdaman ko na naiirita un kausap ko when i use po at koyah i stop... some people kc want them to be treated as magka age level lang kayo, alam mo na, ageless na kc ang mga tao ngayon... hindi mo na ma distinguish ang age, maliban nalang sa mga aged na talaga (pasintabi po) Quote Link to comment

robbietan Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 koyah is being displaced by bosing (for superiors) and manong (for elders). Ā chix in non tagalog areas dig it when I use po with themĀ erferferf Quote Link to comment
