    Once before, the Dutch also attempted to seize Manila from Spain.

    If ever we were colonized by The Netherlands, would we be speaking dutch now?

    Engot manakop mga briton. Hindi nila sinuyo yung mga tagalog para kumampi sa kanila laban sa kastila at kapampangan. Kahit mga ilokano lang.. Shows to prove the strength of the kapampangans... Sila lang kakampi mo panalo ka na...

    Iba kasi ang style ng England sa colonization. Indirect rule sila. Makikipag-alliance sa existing leaders, di nila pakikialaman ang government & society, except sa areas ng trade and taxation.

    and yong pangingialam nila, thru companies na may "charter", kaya may incentives ang companies na palaguin ang economy ng colony para may kita sila, as opposed to appointed government officials na nangungurakot lang and walang pakialam sa economy dahil may tinatanggap naman sila kahit walang improvement ang colony.

    tsaka hinanda din ng england sa transition ang pag-liberate ng colonies. gradual ang transfer of powers sa natives. di gaya sa mga french and spaniards na bigla na lang naglaho, kaya kagulo ang mga natives na biglang lumaya.

    parang british.

    nagkaloko-loko na lang sa panahon natin dahil malakas na ang American influence dito sa Pilipinas.

    pero karaniwan, yung mga vowel at consonant sounds, british ang pag-pronounce, unless inaral ang neutral accent. hindi consistent ang american A sound (happy, sad, plan), long e imbis na short i (something,muffin,choking), saka yung knew... noo vs new.

    Discuss!

    edit: pak. there's nothing to discuss. see 2nd post.
    Sinakop tayo noon, kaso ang mga Noypi mahal nila ang pagka-katoliko nila kaya sinipa natin sila sa pwét... bago pa lang ulitin ni Pacquiao yun...
