Filipino Or English

In high school and college, I faired better in English although my grades in Filipino were good too. I had a hard time with the pronounciation and the Filipino way of spelling certain words with no Tagalog equivalent. Some words are queer and "malalim" too. For example:

 

chair = salumpuwit

stateside = esteytsayd

 

Basta my only Waterloo back then was Math. Inaantok ako! Hehe!
