What is the future of the spanish in philippines??

Answer 1

You might be talking about the spanish language?

Nah, we've had it for a very long time but i think it was in the regime of Marcos when they ripped it off from school's curriculum.
I don't think it will be here for another long period because the legistlators have already passed a bill that the Philippines will only recognize two offcial languages: Filipino and English.

Answer 2

Maybe it is only my own twisted perception of things, but I think people is more interested in learning Spanish these days than when it was a compulsory subject in school.

Many see learning Spanish as going back to their roots. But I don't see that it can replace the use they have of English.

Answer 3

In as much as to be used as in the colloquial, none whatsoever, except for those who have been using it in their homes due to their parents of spanish descent.
As a language of trade even for those migrant workers it will just have a very minimal impact. La verdad es que ya no se habla por aquí. ¿Y por qué lo preguntas?

Answer 4

I think now, only few Filipino knows how to sperak pure Spanish.
But, there's a lot Filipino word that came from Spanish.

Answer 5

No future.
