some informal Filipino chat Hi community! Could you help me understand some conversations my friends having and its difficult for me to get it or translate online. Appreciate! To give you more context these are from comments on facebooks: 1. Mr X: Ati Aba. Ms Y: Pagbigyan nyo na ;) 2. Mr X: tigas ng ulo Ms Y : Wag na kumontran, minsan lng to :D 3. Mr X: Ganda Ms Y: Oh syempre nmn :P Mr Z: gigil sa ganda hahaha Ms Y: alam mo na san mo nakuha kagandahan mo?

"Pagbigyan niyo na" - let it go/just this once let him or her be. Something like that "Tigas ng ulo" - hard headed/someone who won't follow "Wag na kumontra minsan lang to" - please don't contradict/contest because this only happens once in a while "Ganda" - beauty "Siyempre naman" - of course "Gigil sa ganda" - "gigil" has no equivalent word in english. It translates as having butterflies in your stomach or excited "Alam mo na san mo nakuha kagandahan mo - now you know where you got your beauty

Wooh" - something you say when something unusual/awesome/something you wanna make fun of happened.

Ex:

"Woooh! Ayan na yung cum laude"

"Woooh! Kala mo ang galing eh"

"Maka wooh wagas" - endless wooh

"Maka + _____" - this is informal and used a lot in spoken language. No direct equivalent in English. You say it when u want to talk about and emphasize what someone just did/said

Ex:

"Kung maka sigaw ka parang walang tao dito"

"Maka hirit ito kala mo hindi rin ganon"

"Maam baka dika (should be "di ka/hindi ka") busy sa saturday invite ko sana duon (should be "doon") sa bar nang (should be "ng") kaibigan ko. - Ma'm/Madam, I was thinking of inviting you to my friend's bar on Saturday if you're not busy.

"Ganyan talaga pag single" - that's how it is /it's really like that when you're single

"Hala mam hindi naman ako masyadong gumigimik sinusuportahan ko lang yung bar nang (should be "ng") kaibigan ko - not really, maam/madam/miss, I don't go out much. I'm just supporting my friend's bar.
