Filipino cultural genocide was actually a choice

The Vietnamese language has many foreign loan words as well, but for very common words, we use the native version.  The Filipinos never thought about this issue which the reason common Filipino speech is full of English and Spanish words for very basic and concrete things which they had or have had a native word for.
