Cool... it's amazing how a country can have so many different languages, or dialects, within it. Brazil is the same. Eventhough we all speak Portuguese, the accents and words can change depending on the region and the influence of particular immigrants in that area. The northeastern part of Brazil has a strong african influence whereas the south is more european.

It's too bad that I never managed to visit the Philippines while I lived in Asia. :)

yep! that's exactly the way it is in the Philippines. Where my parents are from is where the Spanish had landed back during colonization, so there are many words in my parents' lexicon that are Spanish - and moreso than many other dialects of the Philippines.

you should really consider visiting there if you ever do go back to Asia. It's beautiful.
