Filipino Street words (salitang kanto o balbal)
SALITANG KANTO is the direct opposite of Coño English in terms of its speakers, because this is the jargon of the poor. Among the characteristics of this language is the switching of syllables in a word and the use of code words.

Salitang kalye (from Spanish, calle or "street"), salitang kanto (street corner) and salitang balbal are the Tagalog terms for "slang". Kalye means "street", thus salitang kalye implies that "slang" is pedestrian language. Kanto means "street corner" where most bums while their time away. Balbal is the Tagalog word that means a term or phrase borrowed from a foreign language used by commoners or less educated people, the form of which is altered to suit certain usage
.

TAGALOG - SALITANG KANTO - ENGLISH

handaan - tipar - party
kasamahan - resbak - backers, allies or back-up
nanay - ermat - mother
pera -datung - money
pulis - parak - police
sigarilyo - yosi - cigarette
tatay - erpat - father
tiyo/tsong - chong - uncle (can be used like man, dude, bro)
usap-usapan - tsismis - gossip


Beware of this:

* gago, putang ina, sira ulo, ulol, kupal, tarantado, pakshit are some commonly used cuss words. Generally speaking, these are what we call “bad words”. But times have changed, thus, they came to be a part of everyday conversations and are widely used as common expressions or interjections. These curses are considered as “salitang kanto” because we rarely hear the rich utter them.

Tagalog Words you should know


1. BAKTOL--- ang ikatlong lebel ng mabahong amoy sa kili-kili. ang baktol ay kapareho ng amoy ng nabubulok na bayabas. ito'y dumidikit sa damit, at humahalo sa pawis. madalas na naaamoy tuwing registration, sa elevator o FX.

2. KUKURIKAPU--- libag sa ilalim ng boobs. madalas na namumuo dahil sa labis na baby powder na inilalagay sa katawan. maaari ding mamuo kung hindi talaga naliligo o naghihilod ang isang babae. ang KUKURIKAPU ay mas madalas mamuo sa mga babaeng malalaki ang joga.

3. MULMUL--- buhok sa gitna ng isang nunal. mahirap ipaliwanag kung bakit nagkakaroon ng MULMUL ang isang nunal, subalit hindi talaga ito naaalis, kahit na bunutin paito, maliban na lamang kung ipapa-laser ito.

4. BURNIK--- taeng sumabit sa buhok sa pwet. madalas nararanasan ng mga taong nagti-tissue lamang pagkatapos tumae. ang BURNIK ay mahirap alisin, lalo na kapag natuyo naito. ipinapayo sa mga may BURNIK na maligo na lamang upang ito'y maalis.
