Abstract

This research on the Effect of Using One’s National Language in Daily Conversations to One’s Patriotism has proven several significant insights and information about how Filipino values their own language and their own products. It reveals that one, some are not really fully knowledgeable about their national language but they still do care about it and there is still a place for their national language in their hearts.

Majority of the respondents have higher grades in English than Filipino and are comfortable with the use of Taglish in daily conversations. Joseph D. Lesada call this kind of phenomenon as ‘Code-Switching.’ In the study he conducted, he said that stating two or more languages in a single utterance is called ‘Code-Switching.’ Why it became a norm in the society? Well, he said that most of the parents teach their child/children English language first and as they grow up, they are obliged to learn Filipino as well. When they’re having a hard time explaining in Filipino, they’ll state the correlative in English and it became their practice even before they knew it. Lasada’s research explains why the respondents have hardships on Filipino becauwith others causing them to lack knowledge about other Filipino words especially when it’s a deep word. Because of this, people tend to ask for translations when they write Formal or Informal theme papers in Filipino but they don’t fully find it hard when they translate it on their own since a lot rated its difficulty as 3 out of 5 being the highest. Knowing this, people only have average difficulty on this matter. Majority also studied different languages to satisfy their interest but they don’t forget their love for their country especially for their national language since a lot are concerned about CHED’s decision in removing Filipino as a course subject and they disagree to this. Filipinos are aware that they still lack knowledge about their own culture and language and yet one department that helps strengthen one’s education is making them be separated to their own culture and national language. Filipinos wanted to protect their own culture and national language even though they have interest in other countries’ products and language.
