Speak in English or Filipino Properly with Kindness

Communication is a way to interact, and express and knows one's feelings. Speaking is a very effective to communicate with other people. We use different languages or dialects that can be understood by others.

Last month our school, Ilocos Sur National High School had promoted a campaign entitled "Speak to me in English or Filipino" to the students.The officers made some placards telling things related to speaking emglish or Filipino. They did that for they want to convince everyone to speak those languages even if we are at school or outside the school. In this way our students could practice speaking better and more fluent. They could communicate with other students or other people well. They could express whatever they want to say in a better way.

People sometimes forget those manners in speaking. Some, just talk and talk even it don't have any sense. Sometimes, they just tell anything without even knowing that they could hurt someones feeling or emotion.

In speaking, we must always remember that we must talk with calmness, kindness and gentleness. We must always use every words properly. We must always be aware that the people aroung us have feelings. We must be gentle so that we will not hurt anyone's feeling.

If we practice speaking in a proper, we will then be more understood or even more competitive. But still, we must forget our own dialect----we must use it and be proud of it.

"Language is a God's gift for it enables us understand each other eventhough we came from different places."
