Many thanks. <strong>Reply: You’re welcome and I hope you’ll continue writing. I see a lot of potential.</strong> Marocharim here. Glad to know that my entry made it to your top 20.

We've suffered long enough with Tagalog domination, punished for speaking our own languages and branded "regional" as if we're not part of this nation. There is no Filipino language. <strong>Reply: Filipino language refers to the <em>lingua franca</em> which is unfortunately not yet fully developed, no thanks to an educational system that uses English as medium of instruction and mainstream media that tend to frame English speakers as the intelligent and sensical ones. Even journalism in Filipino is associated with sensationalized reporting, the kind of daily fare we get from most tabloids (not to mention occassional headlines in even some of the top-selling broadsheets). Tagalog is just one of the languages from where the lingua franca should be derived. This would explain, for example, the orientation of the UP Diksiyonaryong Filipino which lists down words not only from Tagalog but other languages like Bikol and Kapampangan. Having said this, I agree that there is no fully developed Filipino language, at least for now. To quote from the <em>UP Diksiyonaryong Filipino</em> (which I sometimes use to write my column articles for <em>Pinoy Weekly</em>), “<em>Konstitusyon ang nagtatakda sa Filipino bilang pambansang wika ng Filipinas. Kinikilala nito ang Filipino na isang buhay na wika na pinagyayaman at dapat pang pagyamanin ng iba’t ibang wika sa Filipinas at, gayundin, ng mga wikang banyagang naging bahagi ng ating kasaysayan.</em>” I hope this helps. I wish you all the best.

Ikinagagalak po namin na isa kayo sa mga naging hurado ng Wika2007. Lubos po kaming nagpapasalamat sa inyong malaking tulong. Asahan po namin ang inyong patuloy na suporta sa mga susunod pang mga taon. Sang-ayon po ako doon sa Judges' choice award. Sa katunayan po, nasa plano na rin po ang pagbibigay sana ng ganong award bilang consolation prize kung sakali man na hindi naging Grand winner ang nakakuha ng pinaka-mataas na score mula sa mga Judges. Pero sa pagkakataong pong ito, ang Judges' choice po ngayon ay siya rin namang ating Grand winner kaya malamang po ay sa ibang participants natin maibibigay ang isa pang consolation prize :) Maraming salamat at mabuhay po kayo! <strong>Sagot: Walang anuman. Buti naman at ang <em>grand prize winner</em> din ang nakakuha ng pinakamataas na grado.</strong> Magandang araw po. Ikinagagalak po namin na isa kayo sa mga naging hurado ng Wika2007.
