Eow pfouh! I just wanna say hello, hoping my conveyance would pass for the new twist in the languages — English and Filipino, derived mostly from text (short message) talk that has evolved into the jejemon, used mostly by the youth and those still trying to pass themselves as one. Our everyday language has evolved! But the jejemon is no longer just a language, it has become a lifestyle mostly to the many text and computer savvy persons, but whose existence has brought countless warnings and reactions that it has now earned an official sanction from government. The Department of Education (DepEd), through Mona Valisno, does not want jejemon to creep into our schools. Valisno has warned against its usage in schools, but can she stop it from becoming an official part of the Philippines’ modern pop culture, if it hasn’t yet? I am not a jejemaster, or a jejemonster as others call it, but I see jejemon as something of an evolution of the languages, not a flash-in-pan trend that would go away soon.
