1. The Philippines is a nation gifted with a variety of ethnic groups, cultural traditions, and
languages. The Philippines has 175 languages, of which 171 are still spoken today and 4 have
disappeared, according to www.ethnologue.com.

These include the Bisaya (Cebuano) and the Waray (Leyte-Samar), two of the most
widely spoken languages in the Visayas islands. Geographically, there are over 20 million
speakers of Cebuano in the territories of Negros, Cebu, Bohol, and some other Visayas and
Mindanao islands, whereas there are about 3 million Waray or Waray-Waray speakers on the
islands of Leyte, Samar, and some sections of Biliran.

The two sets of vocabulary systems can then be regarded as "neighbors," and some
might even describe them as somewhat connected. Cebuano and Waray do belong to the
same family of languages. It is undeniable that these two Visayan languages have certain
terms with identical meanings or words with minor, mostly inconsequential differences. The
differences between the two can even be found in sentence structures.

But distinction always gets in the way, separating one language from the other. Most
speakers of Cebuano do not understand Waray and, still more, cannot speak the language
and vice versa. But such is not always the case. I, for example, am one of those who can use
mentally and verbally these two languages with a certain level of fluency. Having been born
and raised in the bilingual town of Abuyog, Leyte, I, like most Abuyognons, have been
inevitably exposed to both Cebuano and Waray.

 4. What impact does culture have on language? This question cannot be fully answered in
an essay. The paper's clear focus is on the problem of cross-cultural communication in relation
to language and identity. Culture and language are entangled. It is impossible to define or
categorize cultural orientations without including differences in our speech and writing. To
begin exploring the connection between language and culture, this essay will first define each
term in isolation.

Language is the linguistic conduit via which people can express themselves by using
terms they are familiar with. This is intended to communicate information. In other words, it is
the verbal manifestation of a person's culture. The first factor that enables one to identify
someone's cultural orientation is their language. We can distinguish between, say, a Chinese
national and a British person by language. The major aims of language are typically to
establish relationships and to obtain information. Distinct civilizations have different views on
how language is used. Chinese people utilize their language to express their emotions and
build relationships, whereas Americans see it as a valuable instrument for communication.
Through such linguistic variations, different cultures' emphasis on language usage reveals the
relationship between the two research variables.

Everyone is familiar with legendary composers like Beethoven, Bach, and Brahms, as well as
notable scientists like Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. But how many people can say they are
familiar with some of the most significant linguists? In contrast to the hard sciences and music,
notable names in linguistics haven't fully gotten to the mainstream. This list will provide you a quick
introduction to well-known linguists and the theories they advanced that forever altered the discipline.
And for me the greatest contributor in terms of the history of language is Ferdinand de Saussure.
Ferdinand de Saussure, a Swiss linguist, is commonly regarded as one of the founders of both
linguistics and semiology, the philosophical study of how signs and symbols are understood. Most
notably, Saussure popularized the notion that every word is a linguistic sign made up of two parts: the
signified, or the conceptual meaning behind the sign, and the signifier, or the phonetic form of a word
(for instance, the word "dog" is made up of two consonants separated by a vowel) (e.g., a dog is a
furry animal that is commonly used as a household pet). Importantly, Saussure identified the arbitrary
nature of linguistic signs: the phonetic representation and underlying meaning of the word "dog" are
not related naturally but rather are the result of human invention.

Learning Task
Task 1
1. Based on observation, are there words in your vocabulary that do not exist in your friends
language? What words did they use instead?

-Yes there is. For instance the word ‘Paghirot’ means to take care. Since the word
‘Paghinay’ is sound more pleasant it is more recognized to be used though it has the
same meaning as ‘Paghirot’. I used ‘Paghirot” because for me it sounded like a more
diverse and cultured rather than the usual.

2. Did language shape your cognition and opinion?

-Absolutely! Language is an open door to various opportunities to hone our subjective

reasoning and way we think. The language we us serve as a binding agent that enables
us to categorize various experiences under a single heading. This is especially true for
ideas that are invisible to the human eye or touch. However, we still don't fully
comprehend how language shapes the meaning of these more abstract ideas or how it
enables us to classify experiences under an "umbrella" term that refers to something we
cannot touch, see, or point to.

3. Do you treat someone differently just because you have been told by others about someone
else’s negative characteristics or base your judgement from personal experience.

-We have different perspective when it comes to judging people which our behavior and
attitude will vary in reaction to them. I don’t really think that we should treat people
differently just because we heard such things that destroys their characteristic as a
person.

- I would allow them verbally. Because even ourselves are not fluent or can speak English
perfectly. Many times, using code mixing as a transition between terminology that is known
and new helps students feel more at ease speaking informally in the target language.
Consider letting a student use the word in her home tongue to continue the dialogue, for
instance, if she is having trouble memorizing one word. Otherwise, she can become so
fixated on that one word that she loses track of the entire direction of her argument.
Afterward, instruct or review the missing term and talk about any possible target language
explanations or synonyms the student might have used to make her point without using a
code. You might also let pupils utilize filler words (such "well," "like," etc.) to assist them feel
more at ease when they're having trouble coming up with the correct words.

There’s no other person I want to surpass except for my present self. I was indulged with
anxiety and depression a couple of months ago. So here is my take on overcoming those obstacles
 How does our mental condition affect our chances of overcoming obstacles and achieving our
objectives? Despite the doubt and dread of failure or ineptitude that challenges can instill in a
person's psyche, the power of determination substantially expands the range of what is possible. It is
believed that determination is the quality that is most crucial for completing goals since it is a powerful
emotional feeling that frequently serves as a trigger for perseverance. Those who fail, whether in
significant or minor ways, lack the willpower to persevere in the face of difficulties. As demonstrated
in the Tour de France sample, Lance Armstrong summoned the strength to complete the race despite
falling and experiencing disadvantage and maintained the resolve to win the race. He obviously had
the fortitude and strength necessary to become a champion because of his dedication. Although I
wasn't setting records or vying for titles in the summer of 2016, I did come up against a mental
obstacle when trying to land a skateboard trick. Like Lance Armstrong, I was able to accomplish my
goals and grow as a person because of the development of my desire. When a person is driven by
determination, they are inspired to pursue their goals and conquer challenges. This pursuit of
objectives results in the growth of a successful person, both now and in the future.

First what is learning? The process of learning a language is typically one of formal education,
where the teacher employs formal teaching techniques and offers the pupils directives to help them
comprehend the rules associated with a particular language. Teachers emphasize the form of
language more than they do a specific text when it comes to the teaching and learning process. So,
when it comes to learning, the instructor is typically busy teaching the students the grammar rules
while the students are busy trying to understand those grammatical rules and structures. Contrary to
acquisition, learning takes some deliberate effort on the part of the student. Generally speaking, when
given clear directions, students are quite satisfied. The act of learning a language is necessary, but it
is not enough to become fluent. For example, if you are learning French, you can learn the grammar
rules and sentence structures through conscious learning inside of a classroom, but you won't be
able to grasp the language until you increase your knowledge of French culture through subconscious
reading and listening processes.
A language is acquired through a subconscious or non-conscious process. A child begins to
learn his or her mother tongue from his or her environment while they are young. Learning
grammatical structures or norms is not necessary for this language acquisition. The following table
shows the child's language development at various stages. Anyone learning a new language,
whether they are young or old, begins by learning the sounds and vocabulary, then moves on to
sentence structures and patterns. But only in a structured institution, such as a school, would he
receive a formal learning process. In contrast to learning, language acquisition occurs naturally for
children, who pick up vocabulary and sentence patterns without any official or informal teaching.

Similarities Between Learning and Acquisition

  Learning and acquisition are two terms associated with language learning.
 Both learning and acquisition facilitate the learner to become fluent in a language.
 Both learning and acquisition involve the four skills: reading, writing, listening and
speaking

Learning Example: Students read textbook for intended knowledge to be learned therefore it is a
formal way of gathering data and info.
Acquisition Example: The 6 month old baby learned to say mama for the first time.

Beyond our wildest dreams, reading exists. We can reach the very core of information and the
learning process thanks to this bridge. We learn lessons that apply to real-life situations and are able
to understand things through reading. Reading is a key macro-skill that can help us understand
everything we're trying to learn about and become more knowledgeable about it.
The value of reading has a significant impact on our lives because it provides us the strength
to confront our own ignorance and develops our sense of awareness and wisdom. Additionally,
reading transports us virtually anywhere in the world by using printed texts and imaginative word
choices that spark our vivid imagination. We can become intelligent people only by reading, and
reading will also make information from all around the world more available to us.
Indeed, reading has a significant impact on our life. Reading is crucial to learning and
understanding things since it helps us become familiar with words we use every day and learn new
ones. Reading will also be our tool for learning things we don't yet know, things that will empower
everyone to seize opportunities in the future and face obstacles with clarity of purpose.

REFLECTION 1
Yes, English is a sacred language. As we search for the meaning of a true sacred language it
is says that -- A sacred language, holy language or liturgical language is any language that is
cultivated and used primarily in church service or for other religious reasons by people who speak
another, primary language in their daily lives. English in this modern era is used in churches globally
specially in the Christian Religion.

REFLECTION 2
Simply because of its global influence. After years of evolution, English has unquestionably
become a "global" language. And don't you think the history of English is pretty fascinating and
complicated? English has undoubtedly progressed from its origins as a patchwork of West Germanic
dialects to its current status as a universal tongue to become the most influential language in the
modern world. Rightfully so. English has spread across numerous nations, peoples, and cultures, and
is now widely used in everything from elementary school classrooms to multinational corporations.
Therefore, it is even more crucial to arm oneself with the appropriate English abilities in order to
develop confidence in one's ability to function across borders.

APPLICATION 1
I don't believe so, as it would, in my opinion, imply a higher standard as it is still English and
not at all another language. I think it's entertaining and helps us forge connections with other nations
to have or use English variants, which would entail utilizing various accents in other countries.
Moreover, it can be one of the solutions to the language diversity problem in schools. For
numerous reasons, schools should support a variety of languages. Being English language learners
themselves, non-native speakers (NNS) teachers frequently have a much more analytical
understanding of the language they are teaching and can more readily put themselves in the learners'
shoes (especially if they are from the same cultural background as their learners). Additionally, the
range of English to which overseas students will be exposed during their time in school and at work
should be mirrored in their learning environment. If not, there is a chance that their language flexibility
won't be sufficient to handle the variety of English-language settings they may encounter.

APPLICATION 2
Regarding on using animated characters as a channel to deliver information to learners is not
quite new to me. For 21 years, I have witness education that is being bought to us through 3D or 2D
animated films or videos. I say it is quite effective specially for elementary level of education.
