    Doc, my Lolo and his siblings are more fluent in English than Spanish kasi they speak English among each other so my great grandparents who are more fluent in Spanish will find it harder to understand them [emoji23]

    Seems like even basic Spanish phrases are forgotten na among Filipinos kasi recently my senior Uncle and I ate sa restaurant e nag ven aqui siya sa waiter and didn't understand, I guess among older non Spanish speaking Filipinos that's a very common phrase along with siantate haha
