obviously English language comes from England the name says that

no that's not correct but I will give you another  chance think about it where does it come from  

no that's not correct but I will bigyan ka ng isa pang pagkakataon isipin mo kung saan ito nanggaling

I have no idea I thought it was from  England English England it's not

Wala akong ideya akala ko ito ay mula sa Inglatera Ingles Inglatera hindi

no English actually originates from what is now  called Northwest Germany and the Netherlands  

talaga nagmula ang Ingles sa tinatawag ngayong Northwest Germany at Netherlands

the history of the English language really  started with the arrival of three Germanic tribes

ang kasaysayan ng wikang Ingles ay talagang nagsimula sa pagdating ng tatlong Germanic tribes

who invaded Britain during the 5th Century  but that's okay it's your first question  

na sumalakay sa Britain noong 5th Century pero ayos lang yun ang una mong tanong

yeah I didn't know that but it's very interesting  next question please I will answer the next one  

oo hindi ko alam yun pero napaka-interesting next question please sasagutin ko yung susunod

all right 11 of the entire English  language is just the letter e true or false  

sige 11 of the entire English language is just the letrang e tama o mali

I'm not sure I will say it's not true  that's a big number I don't think it's true  

Hindi ako sigurado sasabihin kong hindi totoo iyon ay isang malaking bilang sa tingin ko hindi ito totoo

well it is e is everywhere  so your answer is not correct  

mabuti ito ay e nasa lahat ng dako kaya ang iyong sagot ay hindi tama

the letter e appears in approximately 11 of  all words in the common English vocabulary  

ang titik e ay lumalabas sa humigit-kumulang 11 ng lahat ng mga salita sa the common English vocabulary

next question the English language is said  to be the happiest language in the world  

next question the English language is said to be the happiest language in the world

true or false the happiest language well  I suppose so I mean they always smile

true or false the happiest language well I suppose so I mean they always smile

well it is one of the happiest but  not the happiest so that's not correct

well it is one of the happiest but not the happiest so that's not correct

psychologist at the University of Illinois  found that Spanish is the happiest language

psychologist sa Unibersidad ng Illinois nalaman na ang Espanyol ay ang pinakamasayang wika

English and Portuguese follow the top  10 most happy languages that's true

English at Portuges ay sumusunod sa nangungunang 10 pinaka-masayang wika na totoo,

what a weird question but let's  continue I will answer the next question

kakaibang tanong ngunit magpatuloy tayo sasagutin ko ang susunod na tanong ng

all right over 80 percent of the information  is stored on computers worldwide is in English  

tama higit sa 80 porsiyento ng impormasyon ay nakaimbak sa mga computer sa buong mundo is in English

is that true or false you should know it since  you're very young and you use technology a lot

I'm not sure all right I  will say that's correct true

hindi ako sigurado sige sasabihin ko tama totoo

this time your answer is  correct very good next question

sa pagkakataong ito tama ang sagot mo napakaganda sa susunod na tanong

let's see all right what is  a crutch word do you know

tingnan natin sige ano ang salitang saklay alam mo bang

crutch words is that something  about illness I'm not sure  

salitang saklay ay tungkol sa sakit hindi ako sigurado

no it's not crutch word is a word  that becomes a filler in conversation

hindi ito ang salitang saklay ay isang salita na nagiging tagapuno sa pag-uusap

or is used for verbal emphasis without  adding any meaning to an utterance

o ginagamit para sa pandiwang diin nang walang pagdaragdag ng anumang kahulugan sa isang pagbigkas

these include words such as and  well but though and you know  

kabilang dito ang mga salita tulad ng at mabuti ngunit bagaman at alam mo

but also mer sounds like ah um and earn  sometimes they include words such as literally  

ngunit din mer tunog tulad ng ah um at kumikita minsan sila isama ang mga salita tulad ng literal

actually or basically whatever form they take  crotch words typically have two attributes  

na aktuwal o karaniwang anuman ang anyo ng mga salitang crotch na karaniwang may dalawang katangian na

number one overuse and number two  meaninglessness and should best be avoided

numero unong labis na paggamit at bilang dalawang walang kabuluhan at dapat na pinakamahusay na iwasan

oh fillers I didn't know that  was the name for that fantastic

oh mga tagapuno hindi ko alam na iyon ang pangalan para sa kamangha-manghang

I've heard English native speakers use a  lot of them like and just are very common

narinig ko na katutubong Ingles ang mga nagsasalita ay gumagamit ng marami sa kanila tulad at napakakaraniwan lamang

yeah you can see them usually in speaking  but remember to try to avoid them

oo makikita mo ang mga ito kadalasan sa pagsasalita ngunit tandaan na subukang iwasan ang mga ito

yeah I will try that I use the word okay  a lot whenever I'm speaking I say okay

oo susubukan ko na madalas akong gumamit ng salitang okay tuwing nagsasalita ako sinasabi ko okay

well it's better to avoid that next question  what does the word lol mean and when was it added  

mabuti mas mabuti. para maiwasan ang susunod na tanong na iyon ano ang ibig sabihin ng salitang lol at kailan ito idinagdag

lol Is Love of no wait a  minute I knew that damn it

lol Is Love of no wait a minute I knew that damn it

LOL is the acronym for laugh out loud it was  added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2011.  

LOL ay ang acronym ng laugh out loud ito ay idinagdag sa Oxford English Dictionary noong 2011.

I knew that how could I forget it  I used that expression every day

Alam ko that how could I forget it I used that expression every day

I get to we usually use words and expressions  in English but we don't know their meaning

I get to we usually use words and expressions in English but we don't know their meaning

yeah you're right next question  please I need that iPhone please

yeah tama ka next question please I need that iPhone please

all right then what is the word in English  with more definitions in the dictionary

sige ano ba ang salita sa English na mas maraming definition sa dictionary

um I think that's get it has a lot  of definitions and combinations

um I think that's get it has a lot of definitions and combinations

well it's not the word set has 464 different  definitions in the Oxford English Dictionary

well it's not the word set has 464 different definitions in the Oxford English Dictionary

464 I can't believe it how's  that possible oh my God

464 I can't believe it paano ito posible oh my God

the reason it came to have so many  definitions is because it is so vague

ang dahilan kung bakit ito nagkaroon ng napakaraming mga kahulugan ay dahil ito ay napakalabo

to put in place can be expanded  to to cause to happen or to create  

upang ilagay sa lugar ay maaaring palawakin upang maging sanhi upang mangyari o lumikha

for example I just set my Facebook status  or that earthquake set off a tsunami

halimbawa ko lang itinakda ang aking Facebook status o ang lindol ay nagdulot ng isang tsunami

wow yeah I see now we will have to  study more sentences with that verb
