Favorite gay/lesbian lingo you noticed

[misseksaherada]

Heard the word "besh" and "bes". It's annoying

Hahahahahaha [emoji23] nag-scroll up ako, ayaw mo pala nyan Ms. Cathy.. Naririnig ko yan dun sa gay friend ko tawagan nila nung officemate nya na girl.. Pero nasa personality naman nila kasi, bagay..

Naalala ko tawagan namin ng mga high school friends ko.. "marzee" hahahaha [emoji23]

[kagalingan]

yugn "beh" sa bading ba yan or just normal nilaro yung tawag sa baby.

nagstart kasi yang "beh" early 2000

I think for straight couples din

Hindi ko nga alam na yung B term of endearment sa iba. My office friends call me B (it stands for btch and a lot more other Bs), I also call my office BFF B rin. I wonder if strangers think we are lesbo

[ninjababez]

pucha yun boss ko BI eh
puro bakla and babae kasi mga managers nya, ayun pati ako napapa keme na LOL

"ok lang ba kemehin ito?"
"para san yun keme?"

[_Cathy_]

I don't use gay lingo but whenever I hear the word shunga tawang tawa ako. I am so tempted to use it na nga LOL.

[kagalingan]

ito millenials hindi ko gusto ko mga salita na Lods and pinaka naiinis ako sa AWIT Napa search pa ako na awww at sakit!!!! Baduy.

Mas ok pa din mga bakla gumawa ng slang.

May favorite na lagi ko nagagamit this pandemic = HALLER!!!!

Ang tagal bago ko na-gets yung Awit dati.

Anyway, our language is so bartardized (almost) na kaya if you use the translate option ng Google or Edge, what comes out is still kinda gibberish pa rin. Lalo na sa mga comment sections ng Facebook at YouTube, mahihirapan pa rin maintindihan ng non-native Tagalog speakers. Halo-halo na kasing Taglish, swardspeak, konyotiks, saka street slang. Yung ibang postings naman in other language like Spanish, Latino, Dutch, French at even yung mga kapitbahay natin na Indon at Malay... kapag ipina-translate mo to English almost 90% perfect, including grammar. Kahit nga yung may ibang characters like Arabic, Japanese, Chinese or Greek can have very intelligible translations automatically.

I wouldn’t call it bastardization. It’s just the evolution of language. Creole is a natural offshoot of multiple cultural influences.

The same “bastardization” you describe is also true when I use Google Translate for Korean. What Google gives you vs what a native speaker would say is different most of the time.

examples, please?

in my opinion,
google puts forth several possible translations, and it is up to the user to decide which one is the better fit for the situation.
it's just a computer. a tally machine.

I did mention Facebook and YouTube comments (as well as with TikTok and Instagram most probably) to give context to my 'bastard' statement. Sa emails, letters, publications medyo matino-tino pa naman. Pero sa mga socmed pages talaga ang kinakapos sa sentence, phrase, or word organization.

Why is it important? Well, these are for the most part public forums with international audience. May sense naman sana yung mga sinasabi pero it gets lost in translation. Personally, it's quite irritating especially when trying to get proper context to a post (mostly with videos in another language) pero you can't make heads or tails dahil di natatranslate ng tama.

Quick sample.

in my opinion,
it's just a soul-less computer, capable only of literal translations and whatever miniscule insight its little tin heart is capable of.

i am confident,
non-english and non-tagalog speakers have the same experience with google translate in their own language.

it took amanda grayson and colleagues, a few hundred years to perfect the universal translator.

awit is an example I did post about awit a few months ago and even tsikoteers had different interpretations on it

I'm with gearhead000 on this. If it weren't for social media and KMJS, I wouldn't be aware of these words. I do NOT like these words that are made up especially mga pa cute. I don't know what it's called because it's not really colloquial. Example na yung weh, besshie, bes, gurl, beh, awit, jowa, gonda etc I do find shunga and some other gay lingo funny like Hagardo Verzosa but personally I won't use it. My Auntie corrects me nga when I use the word "super" as an adverb instead of very but in the end she got hawa with me LOL

My Paulinian friend who I post about here a lot, "bakla" siya magsalita. Honestly, I don't know why she talks like that but sometimes it really irritates me when she calls me beh. My BFF and I have talked about her words make us cringe sometimes. She's very kind though and I love her so I could deal with that.

Sometimes I wish we were back in the 1990s when a regular PC and laptop costs a lot of money, when internet was postpaid and costs P1 per minute or P2000+ per month for unlimited which was a lot of money in the 1990s. I swear, maayos mga tao sa internet. Sometimes I also wish that we did NOT have social media, nagiba talaga mundo when FB, instagram, twitter and tiktok came along. A lot of new money made though. Ang maganda lang naidulot niyan, or maganda nga ba, the internet became an equalizer, even without education, looks or connections, one could make it big na. Because of the internet nagkaron din ng mga posers, I honestly will never understand how people get off pretending to be someone they are not and getting praise from strangers It's so easy na because everything can be googled. Naalala ko pa nung GS and HS ako in the 1990s, pagbili lang ng CD pahirapan pa, yung mga hard to find that had to be bought in the US or Japan. Saka yung mga maporma yung mga madalas maka travel kasi delayed ang fashion at music sa Pilipinas by several months.

Sa social media ko din na realize ang daming baluktot mag isip. Example na yun screenshot, look at the replies in tagalog, sablay din magisip.

yung 99.5rt noon updated ang music. broadcast nila every saturday weekly top 40 with rick dees. hehe.

mayroon ako napanood noon sa youtube. how far back in time could a native english speaker travel and the english language still be understood?

nakalimutan ko na yung sagot. parang 12 or 1100 years ata. talagang nag eevolve ang language and there you have colloqialism at its front siguro.

[gearhead000]

Don't get me wrong. I'm not really against coño, beki/ bekenese, street, or gay lingo... or any other colloquialism that is currently trending or being nostalgic about. I find them both funny and amusing, and in fact I use quite a lot of them also.

What I have said are mostly observations and not really a judgement. Both Chrome and Edge nga kasi has this global "Translate to English" na in the context menu. Kung ayaw mo naman ng global, meron "See translation" per post sa Facebook at sa YouTube (mobile only). And again, I just find it amusing that there's a lot of languages that translates to at least a very nearly intelligible and coherent translation, while sa Filipino, where I a foreigner who is truly interested wala pa rin ako gaanong maiintindihan. (I said Filipino kasi sa mga dialect very rare na makapag-translate si Google or Microsoft).

Anyway, to contribute to the discussion thread, madalas ko nagagamit ngayon eh 'Hagardo Versoza' or 'Pagoda', both to mean in a state of tiredness or exhaustion. Some others include:

• Maritess = tsismosa (usong-uso siya ngayon together with her sissies na sina Marisol, Maribeth, Marissa, etc.)
• Morayta = mura
• Dakota Harrison/ Dyutay = si Malaki at si Maliit
• Mudra/ Pudra = Ma at Pa
• Ma at Pa = walang pake
• Luz Valdez = olats
• Indiana Jones = no show
• petchay/ nota = girl's/ boy's

I can understand also how these bekinese/ gay lingo are so fluid. These were initially 'invented' so that the general population can not eavesdrop on their conversation. So pwedeng straight friend ka and they're talking about you or your other friends in front of you without having a clue. So kung medyo nade-decipher na sila through common use then they try to make up other words to again hide the original meaning. So our language kinda gets broken in relation to how well Google can match its algorithm to come up with a proper translation.

I can't help but laugh when I hear the word shunga and shuta. Now another word: autopass LOL

[gearhead000]

Since trending si Terrence Romeo, madalas mabanggit yung kanyang ex-jowa.
Na-Julie Yap Daza na kasi (nahuli na).
Baka siya na susunod.

If he just stayed with Vice, he wouldn’t have all these problems. Andon na sia, alam naman ng marami pumatol na sia. Panindigan na nia. Bouncing checks in the tens of millions. Sira na buhay nia, sinira pa nia buhay ng investors nia.

[*]Ma at Pa = walang pake

it's actually a shortened term for "Malay ko at Pake ko"

....

back on topic, i think "Hanash" (sort of like a new term of keme) is the current word i hear a lot of recently and i myself use it even as a straight guy, thanks to my gf who speaks a couple of these lingos

[Little Missy]

Hanash is reklamo, kuda, sinasabi.

"Daming hanash."
"Humahanash"
