      Bulan ( Moon ) ……………. Bulan
      Udang ( Shrimp ) …………. Udang

      …and many more words.

    one of the DNA of the Japanese comes from Taiwan(Formosa) Hunters and gatherers who lived there thousands of years ago and left northward to Kyushu Japan. The Japanese language has words like and similar to people who lived there There were at least 11 different groups living there. The Japanese are called "Jomon." Later, the Jomons merged with humans who lived near Lake Baikal, Siberia who left southward into the Korean Peninsula and some went to Kyushu Japan and merged with the Jomon. The later is called Yayoi.I am a Nisei whose DNA is 50/50 % of each.

    I am very surprised to hear Pak Brian suggest that the word, 'mata hari' (sun) in Indonesian means, 'the eye of the day'. It is this example of Indonesian that is cited by many people to suggest that the language is 'child-like' in its' construction - nothing could be further from the truth. 'mata' is the essence of things, the thing that is crucial for a concept. e.g. 'mata pisau' is the blade of a knife, 'mata tangga' are the rungs of a ladder, 'mata' does also mean 'eye' (for obvious reasons), 'mata wang' is the currency of money and so on where there are too many examples to mention (have a look in a good dictionary). I would think therefore that the 'mata' of the day (hari) is the sun. I'd be interested to hear other opinions.

    I dont know if its only me or anything.. but i realized that the cognate of "Ola / Ora" in polynesian languages might not be the javanese "ora" or the malay "ada". I actually learned a bit of hawaiian on youtube and there is this dialogue example video showing how hawaiians shout "Ola !" after someone sneezes. Here, in Indonesia (at least in my region), ppl do the same thing ! they shout "Waras !" after someone sneezes. "Waras" means "Healthy / mentally healthy" in malay and javanese which has the same meaning with "Ola" or "Ora". and I think it is also the cognates of the word "Horas !" which is a greeting in Batak language that also means "Health / life / Healthy". "Ora" is also used in the Maori greeting "Kia ora" and Tahitian (if im not mistaken) "Ia orana". These are just my thoughts tho could be right could be wrong :D

    Filipino is just the politically correct way to say Tagalog. When Tagalog was chosen as national language, Cebuano speakers were more numerous, but the Tagalog speaking Manila was more politically influential. So to make Tagalog more acceptable to the other ethnic groups, it was renamed Filipino. But there's really no difference and so most sensible people just call it what it is - Tagalog.🙄

    • @Gelatinocyte2
      @Gelatinocyte2 Місяць тому

      The reason it's called Filipino now is because it's fairly unrecognizable from _actual_ (original) Tagalog. I mean, not only does our language have a collection of words from various other local languages such as Ilocano and Cebuano (the main reason it's Filipino now, and not just Tagalog), but it's also filled with Western loanwords and such (especially from Spanish), and its' grammatical structure/rules may be a bit "alien" from old Tagalog (if it hasn't already borrowed a lot from Spanish).
      So, you're sort of correct to say that Filipino is "just the _Politically Correct™️_ name" for the language, because it's meant to be inclusive to all Filipinos on the country (the whole archipelago), and not exclusive to just the Tagalogs of Luzon island; it is the national language, hence "Filipino".

    I'm curious about the numbers.... in Tagalog they express numbers over ten as "labing isa" (eleven) literally meaning "one over ten", "labing dalawa" (twelve) literally "2 over ten". That's Tagalog, I'm not aware of how any number over ten is expressed in the other Filipino Languages as they're been taken over by Spanish. How would other Austronesian people express those numbers?

    • @marioprawirosudiro7301
      @marioprawirosudiro7301 2 роки тому +2

      That would be highly dependant on external influences. Malay/Indonesian/Javanese are heavily influenced by Sanskrit, so their numbering follows the Indo-European pattern. However, Tontemboan, a language in Minahasa, Indonesia, is very similar to your example. Eleven in this language would be "sangawulu bo esa", note that "sangawulu" means ten and "esa" of course is one.

    Hi Steve boy. Try all over Queensland for a start. Look at the aboriginal place names and say them out loud. Then what does that name mean. Compare the overall sound and description to javanese or sriwijaya language. There are many matches.

    “Kutu” is also the Ilocano term for louse/lice. “Lallay” to sing a song and dance/swing from side to side, i.e, as in putting babies to sleep. “Dalan” for road. Our word for liquor is “arak”.
