Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

I think what you mean is "meron pa nga ba? Sana"?

Isa pa yan. We take it for granted, but we mash these monosyllabic particles together and somehow change what the sentence means.

"Meron pa" has certainty. "Meron pa nga" has insistence. "Meron pa nga ba?" questions the insistent certainty of the previous particles.

It's fun and at the same time confusing to think about HAHAHA
