Identify how Filipinos used language in the following social dimensions:

• Filipino Society and Culture
Filipinos frequently use their native language when communicating with
others in their community so that they can easily understand one another.
When communicating with our family members and friends, we often use our
dialects are used to express love, care, and concern towards them. In our
society, we use our national language, Filipino, to express our nationalism and
appreciation for our diverse culture.

• Gift giving
Gifts and gift giving are very important to Filipinos. We express our love and
affection for the recipient through gifts. We make certain that our gift not only
looks nice but also serves a purpose for the recipient.

• Dining etiquette
When it comes to dining etiquette in a formal setting, most Filipino families
are very strict. When it comes to the dinner table, most families dress modestly
and use good manners. During eating sessions, we frequently have a sitting
plan and use polite words such as "please" and "thank you."

• Business etiquette and protocol

To ensure effective communication, Filipinos use language that both parties
can understand, it could either be in English, Filipino, or common dialect. When
it comes to business, we frequently believe in a "give and take" relationship.
We have a strong sense of "utang na loob." We take great care not to offend
our partners and always treat them with respect.

• Business negotiation
Filipinos avoid confrontation at any cost. They find it difficult to say 'no.'
Similarly, their 'yes' could simply mean 'possibly.' Decisions are frequently
made based on feelings rather than facts, which is why it is critical to cultivate
a diverse network of personal relationships.

• Dress etiquette
Filipinos believe that how we dress reveals a lot about who we are as people
and our social standing. We make every effort to appear neat and modest at
all times. We are also concerned with how others perceive us, which is why we
dress conservatively.

• Tagalog terms related to Filipino beliefs

Filipinos are extremely superstitious people. We tend to be very cautious
with our words and actions, especially when visiting new places. We frequently
believe in mythical creatures and don't want to offend them.

• Five folkways.
 Filipinos are extremely respectful of their elders. When we address them,
we use “po” and “opo”. We are taught at a young age to bless their hands as a
sign of respect. We are often very helpful to our neighbors and practice the
bayanihan in our community. When it comes to courtship, men are often pay
respect to women through harana and pamamanhikan.
