RE: "Putanginamo"; Don't Say That Phrase If You Are Steemit User In The Philippines, For Your Reputation May Go Down A Notch!

in #steemit7 years ago

I live in the US and a white girl im dating works as a registered nurse at a hospital. Where I live in the US, Filipinos are the nurses so I told her she should say hi to her co-workers in tagalog by saying putanginamo. Hahaha

Sort:  

I think "putangina mo" is the common word that we teach foreigners first. A co-worker here asked how to say good morning in tagalog and I replied with a serious face say "Putang ina mo with a wave and a smile". So she does it to our Filipino co-workers. She greets them "putang ina mo" and other filipino co-workers are game enough to say "Putang ina mo din". She found out the actual meaning of it eventually. She never asked me anymore tagalog words after that.

Haha that's a mean joke but if they get that your gf got played, might be funny.

Well depending on the context. It can be well-meaning!
She should join steemit soon!

Make sure she says it with a smile lolssss!
Works everytime!
