Who talks this way?

The 10 CONYO-mandments

Origin

Why do they talk like this?

  • teenagers
  • rich people
  • social climbers
  • students of universities

What is CONYO?

  • People tend to alter the language for their specific communicative needs.
  • Conyo talk became an emulation of how English and Spanish speakers talked to native Filipino: a sentence in English and/or Spanish with some Filipino words.
  • In time, it has become a trend as a means of communication.

3. When making describe a whatever, always say "It's SO pang-uri!"

ex.

"It's so malaki, you know, and so mainit!"

"I know right? So sarap nga, eh!"

"You're making me inggit naman.. I'll make bili nga my own burger."

4. When you are lalaki, make parang punctuation "dude", 'tsong" or "pare"

ex.

"Dude, ENGANAL is so hirap, pare."

"I know, tsong, I got bagsak nga in quiz one, eh"

  • to be part of the "in group"
  • to be categorized as a person with power and a member of the middle and high class
  • to show that they are multilingual
  • to have a social identity

5. Thou shall know you know? I know right!

"Eh as if you want naman also, diba?"

Implications

ex.

"Kakainis naman in the LRT! How plenty tao, you know, people?"

"It's so tight nga there, eh, you know, masikip?"

9. Make gamit of plenty abbreviations, you know, daglat?"

ex.

"I know right? It's so kaka!"

"Kaka?"

"Kakaasar!"

10. Make gamit the pinakamaarte voice and pronunciation you have para full effect!

ex.

"I'm, like, making aral at the Arrhneo!"

"Me naman, I'm from Lazzahl!"

- In the Philippine context, CONYO refers Taglish or broken Tagalog mixed with English.

- It is used by people who seem to be high-class and vain or conscious about their social status. (Urban dictionary)

Example:

We are so mas magaling and mas cool than you because we make usap this way.

I know right?! That is so tama. So don't make usap to us because you do not belong.

Language Teaching

Language

Language continuously evolves. The language in ancient years is entirely different in the new millennium. Youth today tend to be more creative and innovative in terms of using the language. That is why new forms of language emerge. Conyo is one of them.

Conyo is a proof that language truly changes over time. From pure languages such as English and Filipino, comes a combination of two. Conyo, like other language, maintains similar features (grammar) and functions (communication).

Like sobrang THANK YOU for making pakinig to my report. :)

With conyo being so widespread, language teaching tends to be difficult because proficiency is at risk. The conyo language has been a source of problem in teaching and learning English.

Language teachers should motivate and practice learners to speak English proficiently through using a variety of techniques and strategies. Conyo language should not be tolerated because it injures the ability of the learners to become proficient, fluent and eloquent in English.

The major users of the conyo language are the youth.

Language is a process of free creation; its

laws and principles are fixed, but the manner in which the principles of generation are used is free and infinitely varied. Even the interpretation and use of words involves a process of free creation.
