Want to know a Filipino language, impress your Filipino? What language do you speak?

Men who want to get married to Filipino women probably do not know the first thing on the Philippines and Filipino culture. Being Filipino myself, I think the first one, you should know is that the Philippines is made up of 7,107 islands, and after us since 1994, Miss Universe 7108 participants, we have the islands at low tide.

So what that means, you may ask. Well, this just means that "Filipino" really means "diversity," especially with regard to languages andSubculture,

Many Filipinos actually speak different languages, some Spanish-speaking Creole (locally known as Chavacano). The government is studying on the obligation for us, the national language, Filipino (Tagalog difficult language) and English. Really, how else could we communicate with us when we have about 150-170 languages, depending on the linguist you need to talk?

Living in different islands and speaking different languages means that Filipinos tend to"Regional" and are sensitive when it comes, is where they come from. Take, for example, the people of Cebu. (I'm from Cebu.)

If you are a Filipina from Cebu, will not ask to speak Tagalog or Filipino, or if you just met for some time. Why? Majority of Cebuanos do not feel comfortable speaking that language as their mother language is Cebuano. (And really, nobody wants a language that politicians had to speak inManila.)

In general, not women and men from Cebu to speak Tagalog well. If you really want to get to know them to speak English, or you could try to learn Cebuano.

Strange as it may seem, this is a fact about the Philippines, who know very few people, but in fact essential for them to see beyond the stereotypes.

But of course you can make generalizations about Filipinos in general.

Pattaya Bar Girls Using Connect Four to break the language barrier

If it's a game that Pattaya bar girls like to play, and Connect Four. That's right, I'm talking about this stupid game, most of us played as children. Connect Four is widely used in Pattaya bar girls as a means of communication and the cultural gap between Western men.

If you forget, the game is like a kind of three-dimensional version of tic-tac-toe. It is played on a table in seven verticalRoom facilities and six high. Players use "men" are like stones. The men are red and black, and each player starts with 21 men.

The board resembles a cage. Players take turns throwing their men, one after another, even if the slot on top of the cage. The goal of the game is the first player of the four men in a row. The four-in-a-row can vertically, horizontally or diagonally.

There is hardly a bar in Pattaya, Thailand is not thathave this game available. I saw everything in cash, which I never visited this part of the country. It 'important because it allows the girls language barrier to communicate with customers, despite the'.

You see, Western men flock to Pattaya because of its reputation as a destination for sex tourism. Most of the boys, the city will come, but do not talk a little 'and the Thai bar girls are not nice to speak English. Here is where Connect Fourto play.

Somewhere along the line, an enterprising bar owners imported this game and has become an institution from Pattaya. Couples, with a smile that you play, laugh, drink and have fun together, despite the fact that they do not speak the same language. Connect Four is their common language.

Some of the girls in Pattaya are now very adept in the game. I never realized how technical the game really was until I performed aSearch on Google. There are strategies, that is very complex and at least one mathematician wrote all his master's thesis on the game. Some of the girls know the strategy and they like to play with free drinks.

A friend of me all the time in the life of Pattaya swears that this is an erotic game so well. He maintains a crystal ball were defeated by a Pattaya beautiful girl with deep eyes and attractive. That girl has developed a variant of the gameand you can not look at the card while you play.

Under its rules, each player can only look in the eyes of other players as their pieces are put into play. You need to guess the location of the token by the look in the eyes of your opponent. Obviously, this girl hypnotic because my friend can not stop talking, what is beautiful and not allow any other to know where he works.

played regardless of the variation, this simple childrenGame has become an indispensable tool in the language of life of Pattaya bar girls and their Western friends. If you plan to visit Pattaya, you should definitely learn to play Connect Four on the first trip.
