Welcome to Atenista.Net! > Anything Goes! > Anything Goes!
ångel
this is my third attempt at finding kapampangans here in the forums. i tried in freshman year, soph year, and ngayon ulit. sana more than twenty na ang mag-reply. Ü kahit hindi gaano marunong kagaya ko, batsa tumira sa pampanga, nag-aral sa pampanga, may kamag-anak sa pampanga, pinanganak sa pampanga, kapampangan ang magulang, o kahit yung mahilig lang sa sisig. Ü

Asu! Nandesu ka!

Kapampangan ka pala H-abe!

Kaya naman pala marunong kang magluto; magaling daw magluto talaga ang Kapampangan.

Aku, makaintindi ku! I understand when people converse in Kapampangan, but I don't speak the dialect myself. My mom's from Barrio San Isidro, Guagua. We used to spend our summers and holidays there but haven't gone back in years. Where are you from, Angel?

I had a few batchmates who are Kapampangan (or half, like me).

It's true that Kapampangans cook very well. And the women are pretty. wink.gif The misplaced h's is true too. I have an auntie who's lived in Germany for decades. She's been all over Europe and speaks German like a native, but she still says Heiffel tower. smile.gif

A lot of nice things come from Pampanga - the best pindang, suman and abyerta I've ever tasted. During holy week, there were a lot of grand processions and flagellants. And of course during Christmas, we went all around the barrio in our best clothes making mano and getting money in return. I don't think I can still do that, though. It was sad when Pinatubo erupted and the lahar came. We went home and saw people evacuating their homes (and the Americans evacuating Clark). A lot of good houses were buried, and during the rainy season the floods were phenomenal.

Aku mu rin makaintindi ku.

Hehe... kamusta kayo mga cabalen?

My father's from Tarlac City while my mom's from Guagua, Pampanga.

I was born in Quezon City but in my early years we were based in Tarlac and then in Pampanga. I can say that I can talk Kapampangan well. And of course, guwapo ako! nyahahaha... joke!

But I don't know how to cook! hahaha... hanggang instant noodles, de-lata saka microwave oven lang kaya ko. Ay oo nga pala, magsaing at magprito rin ng itlog saka hotdog. hehehe...

Speaking of Pampanga, you guys might wanna check out the Air Force website about an article on Clark H-air Base. www.paf.mil.ph Look in the PAF Publications or OSS links.

i'm what is known as BALID-- can understand kapampangan completely, can talk a bit, but can't really engage in a 100% kapampangan conversation. medyo pangit pa yung accent. wala yung certain thing na parang they're speaking mandarin... yung mabilis na matataas yung boses, especially of aunts and mothers na matagal nang hindi nagkikita. haha.

anyway, a bit more about pampanga, as i posted in another thread. (yeah! i'm not ashamed to say i love my roots!)

i was born in Cabanatuan Nueva Ecija, my dad is from Iloilo (Ilonggo) my mom was born in Tondo but lived in Pampanga all her life cos her dad was kapampangan.

we transferred to angeles when i was five tapos now we live in san fernando. along macarthur hi-way lang, so it's technically between angeles city and san fernando proper.

apl.de.ap of the black eyed peas: APL - allan pineda (something L) DE - spanish for "Of, or coming from" AP - Angeles Pampanga! woohoo!

My spoken Kapampangan is limited to essential sentences like "Danupan ku!" and "Mangan na tamu!" smile.gif

About the aunts and mothers who talk really loudly - I know what you mean. I can tell when my mom is on the phone with a kabalen because she sounds like she's fighting with someone. Sometimes when we're in the mall and my mom takes a call on her cellphone, I cringe because everyone hears the conversation. It was my dad's birthday a few weeks ago and when I woke up, I heard shouting. I stepped warily out of my room and was relieved to see it was just relatives all the way from Pampanga crashing my dad's bash.

You're forgetting the good hand-crafted furniture you can get along the road. That's one of Pampanga's key industries. The Red Crab is from Pampanga. Their first restaurant was in Clark Air Base, then they branched out to Malate, Alabang and Greenbelt.

mera51, we're both from Guagua.

i know! haha! i was laughing kanina about the talking on the phone bit. especially my tita?

"oy! nokarin na kayu! achu kami jollibee! keni, king ground floor! mangan ta na!"

haha! everyone talaga hears the conversation. syet, pag sa megamall kami, kakahiya talaga! but then we KNOW there's a cabalen around when it's our turn to hear loud voices like that.

we are a distinct breed of beautiful species indeed. tongue.gif

ay, (the way they say "ay" pa, you know? can you hear me? haha!) katula ko!
5FootCarrot
Tararajimpotpot
Mateya'y Sabukot
Nanu ing ke mateya?
Mangan siyang...
wink.gif

Sorry, the spelling is most probably wrong, but that was passed down through oral tradition courtesy of my mom.

Hi, I'm 5FootCarrot. My grandmother was born and raised in Mabalacat. Her older children all speak Kapampangan quite well, but the younger ones (including my mom) aren't as fluent. I can understand and speak a very tiny bit, and I suck so don't talk to me in Kapampangan na lang tongue.gif

I hear y'all on the good food (Razon's halo-halo... *drool*) and pretty, noisy women biggrin.gif But the talking in loud voices seems to be a Central Luzon trait and not just Kapampangan (or limited to women) -- my father's family is from Nueva Ecija and when they get together, they yell at each other too.
DeepQuant
So what did Tararajimpotpot eat? smile.gif
mera51
Here's a good one. Say it fast a lot of times:

QUOTE
Asapo que ing bola queng lalam ning dede.


Oops... before anyone thinks of something unnecessary, here's what it means:

QUOTE
Nasalo ko ang bola sa ilalim ng tulay.


Hehehe... laugh.gif
ångel
Wait. I think it's Tarajimpotpot lang. And what hea ate if I'm not mistaken is 'takla"-- jerbs. hehe...

Tapos, it's "asapu ke in bola king lalam ning tete." it means, "I caught the ball under the bridge."

What about this:
Atin cu pung singsing (I have a ring)
Metung yang timpucan (With a stone)
Amana que iti (I inherited it)
Cang indung ibatan (From my lolo who died)
Sangcan ceng sininup (I put it away neatly)
Quing metung a caban (Inside a container)
Mewala ya iti (I lost/misplaced it)
E cu camalayan (I wasn't aware I did)

Ing sucal ning lub cu (Yung sama ng loob ko [awkward pag English eh])
Susukdul quing banwa (Umaabot sa langit)
Mengurus cung gamat (I clasped my hand together [as in prayer])
Babo ning lamesa (On the table)
Ninu mang manakit (Whoever finds)
Queng singing cung mana (The ring I inherited)
Calulung pusu cu (My poor heart)
Manginu ya keka. (Shall endear itself to you)


Tapos the reggae band Tropical Depression came up with parang a refrain na rap:

Ikit ke, ikit ke, ikit ke (I found, I found, I found)
Ing singsing mungmana (The ring you inherited)
Bayu ke ibye keka (Bago ko ibigay sayo)
Ibye me pa ing mayumu mung "wa!" (Ibigay mo muna ang matamis mong "Oo!")


Astig. cool.gif
DeepQuant
Gawd, is that what he ate? That's gross! Is that supposed to be sung to babies? Thank God my aunties stuck to "Terak neng bitis nang metong..." smile.gif
5FootCarrot
Hmm, methinks I must translate... (at least I wrote it down well enough for people to get the gist of it)

Tarajimpotpot
Namatay si Sabukot
Ano ang ikinamatay niya?
Kumain siyang...
(not jerbs, but an organic human by-product that rhymes with "Sabukot")

I agree, it's gross laugh.gif
ångel
hahaha!

i almost died laughing kagabi. aliw sobra yung bubble gang!

si rufa mae quinto was spoofing melanie marquez (from angeles city sila pareho right) and antonio aquitania who's also a kapampangan ginagaya naman si leon guerrero. if you know the showbiz issue there ('cause i don't, basta leon guerrero ran for an office last elections sa pampanga) nag-aaway yata si melanie at guerrero now. tapos yung bangayan ni rufa mae at antonio, in kapampangan lahat! naka-subtitles lang na tagalog! hahahahaha!

"ninanu ka, malagu na ku man, e mu ku kalupa, neh!"

hahaha. hindi siya funny eh. aliw siya, kasi kapampangan ako.

pg meging kung sikat, abalu na ning yatu a kapampangan ku. pramis. ahahay!
dyspr0siumNitride
Ang saya dito a.

My mom's from San Fernando. Pero "balid" rin ako. Sinusubukan kong kausapin yung blockmate kong Kapampangan, pero pinapatigil nya ako. Ang sagwa daw pakinggan. Hehehehe. Hanggang, "nanu?" at "wapin, ne?" nalang ako. biggrin.gif
ångel
wahaha!!!

ako naman, since prep sa pampanga na nakatira, pero dahil ayokong mapagtawanan ng classmates ko, hindi ako nakaka-practice. naunahan pa ko nung classmate ko na galing kalookan, transferee sa min nung 3rd year. Ü

i have to say im a bit mroe fluent now.

yuing blockmate mo, id love to meet him/her. kahit dito lang. Ü
ångel
ay, kwento ko lang. im in bluerep, and we're doing this musical. hindi ako lead role so kaya kong maki-lokohan with the other cast members na hindi rin major roles, while the leads are gritting their teeth rehearsing. anyway, i only get to talk to a few of them, kasi hindi ko naman talaga kilala lahat. mga soprano lang halos. then i was walking home with a friend, may nakasalubong kaming isang alto, then biglang na-rbing up somehow na kapampangan ako. the girl shrieked, and here's the conversation after:

me: *shriek* talaga? taga-chevalier ako!
her: *shriek* ay, sa holy fam (holy family academy) ako! (both in angeles, kaya lakarin from one to the other kung gugustuhin. sinasabing rival schools pero i don't feel it naman)
me: talaga? san ka nakatira?! *shriek*
her: ako, sa villa angela, sa tapat ng CS (chevalier school), ikaw?
me: haha sa richtown.
her: ay, kilala mo si (names ateneans from our school and their school)?
me: ah, oo, nag regional schools press conference kami nakita ko siya! *shriek* ang galeng! si (names other names) kilala mo?
her: *shriek* crush ko nga yung isa, eh! grabe grabe! san ka nagdo-dorm?
me: (dorm), kapit-dorm namin taga holy fam din, si (--), room-mate niya UP naman, si (---)
her: *shriek**shriek**shriek* ang gwapo gawpo nun! fine arts siya sa UP diba?
me: *shriek**shriek**shriek*ang galeng! small world! wahahaha!

that was the 6-pm journey from gonzaga music hall to gate 3. we just met that very moment.

ang labo. para namang pinoy na nagkita sa ibang bansa. yung ibang friends namin tawa na lang eh.

"ah, 19 years old ka rin? ako rin!*shriek*" nangga-gagu na lang. hahaha. ganyan yata lagi when we see or meet a cabalen. iba.

May 3 ka naman birthday? aku rin!!! minum tamu pa!!!) well, they never got home, they slept in their own vomit. Turns out they were twins...

Yesterday we rushed my grandma to the emergency room after she had lost consciousness in her wheelchair. She was out for a good thirty minutes. When she had been revived, my uncle spoke to her in the dialect, and one of the nurses looked up and asked, "Kapampangan yu pu?" Turns out several doctors and nurses working in the ER are cabalen. But of course, there was no shrieking. That would have unsettled the patients. :)
5FootCarrot
Er...I don't know whether or not to laugh at that. unsure.gif So I will just allow myself a giggle -- *giggle* -- and hope your grandmother's OK!

Correction, for the person who posted the English translation of ATIN KU PUNG SINGSING.

'Amana ke iti kang Indung Ibatan' translates to 'I inherited it from MOTHER (from whom I came)' not Lolo.

INDU - mother
IBPA - father
APU - grandma / grandpa
INGKUNG - grandpa

tocino or longganisa? laugh.gif

manyaman!
bryanne
tocino.. haha.. tatanungin ko dapat yun sa this or that a!

yung pampango ba yung may 'H-style'?
christoff_rulez
hindi ok pag pampanga made.. tsk tsk tsk

did you know na kahit masarap un.. napakaraming preservatives and a lot more stuff na nasa tocino made in pampanga..

kaya ko alam...

malapit sa pampanga ang baliuag, bulacan (boundary) ..

mas ok ang baliuag tocino and longganisa..

try!!

my twist ng milk taste and sweet meat..

pag nag get together na tayo..

magdadala ako.
Les Infanterie
ok. i never knew that baliuag had longganisas and tocinos. not known for it i guess. the place is more of a haven for firecrackers, right?

i think pampanga's dishes are great. kahit na may mga kung anong preservative pa iyon, basta masarap!
longsilog, isa rin iyan sa mga weakness ko. laugh.gif
christoff_rulez
correction ulit.. hehehe

baliuag is known for its sweet delicacies, rice cakes, chicharon and lechon manok..

bocaue is known for firecrackers (malau na ang bocaue sa baliuag.. uhmm.. kung mang gagaling ka sa manila mauuna muna nag town ng bocaue tapos uhm.. mga 12 towns pa bago ang baliuag..)

baliuag = marami na ring kapampangan sa lugar namin because of it's proximity sa pampanga (boundary na kami ng bulacan and it took only 15 minutes sa town proper namin para makarating sa candaba pampanga..)

logsilog bigla akong nagutom
Les Infanterie
ay sorry sa bocaue nga pala iyon.mga kornik nga pala sa baliuag at yung lechon manok... haha.

christoff_rulez
^grabe march 2 pa ang last post ko.. sa wakas after 2 months nag respond din.. haha..

If you know your Bulacan history, you'd know Bulacan was formerly a Kapampangan area along with N. Ecija, N. Vizcaya, Tarlac, and Bataan. smile.gif It's a lot stranger that there are more Tagalogs in a former Kapampangan-dominated area, and the Kapampangans in the Bulacan border are the remaining Kapampangans of Bulacan.

Kapampangan Rock Album! soon!
