Canada = English or French.
English is also an official language of the Philippines, so I say what better time to get used to it than now.
Actually It kinda bothers me the Filipino language threads, as I've asked for help and cannot get responses, but then I see many in those threads popping up and speaking rather good English in other threads.....so the vast majority can and do speak good English.
I have been all through the Philippines with my wife and I have never met anyone that cannot speak English.....So why no answers to valid questions?
Trust me, I love my wife and really respect her culture and encourage keeping it when she lands....I even want our children to learn from both sides.....
BUT
We are here to help everyone, and singling themselves out doesn't help anyone except themselves. It's because of that I will not respond to Tagalog questions, even when I partially understand, and even when I know I can help.....because I've asked.
Sorry
