Bababa"

What did the American say when he heard this exchange?

i first heard it from an italian Priest.

waiting passenter to elevator operator, as door opens, "bababa ba?"
elevator operator to passenger, "bababa."
passenger looks back behind him and says to those behind, "bababa!"
the crowd pushes ahead, into elevator, "baba! baba! baba!"

he was amazed! ...on the versatility of the pilipino language.

That's a version I haven't heard before Doc.

The one I often hear ends up with the other passenger, usually a foreigner, exclaiming " Did you guys just have a conversation??!"

Parang Minions lang daw ng Despicable Me fame.

Sabi nga ng GM namin kanina, if you can't be these things maybe this is not the company for you. Company at tao mag aadjust sa culture of being rude?

Those very subtle nuances that only native born speakers will truly understand.

The comments on their though, gold! hahaha!

one day, the owner of the building rode up the elevator, for his penthouse. somewhere in between, an unkempt, poorly-dressed, hippie-looking young guy stepped in, and stepped out after some flights, on the floor of the computer programmers.
the owner said, "he must be very, very good."

I feel you LM, racism and inequity in our own country is the worst. Sariling bansa pa natin yan, what more in other countries?
