Speaking in English in the Philippines as a Filipino Is Scary
<p>Speaking in English in the Philippines as a Filipino is scary because, here, if you speak English and you are not a foreign person, you are trying hard — a pretentious person who wants to appear better than others.</p>
<p>And then when you make a grammar mistake, even if you say just the wrong word, or if your accent sounds odd, you will be judged. <em>You shouldn’t have spoken in English if your English is not perfect!</em></p>
<p>Your grammar must be perfect before you can speak in English. You must sound like a native English speaker, too!</p>
<p>Filipinos hate it when other nationalities stigmatize us, call us poor and dirty, and treat us like trash. But they generalize and assume that people from certain countries or places in the Philippines are this or that.</p>
