In the Philippines, there are between 120 and 175 languages, depending on the method of classification. Four languages no longer have any known speakers. Almost all the Philippine languages belong to the Austronesian language family. Of all of these languages, only 2 are considered official in the country while (as of 2010) about 12 are considered official auxiliary. But a certain "breed" of Pinoys have created their own language mostly heard in beauty salons, fashion shops (known back then in the 70's as boutiques), coffee shops and in high-end down to the downright sleazy bars..this, is the Gay language

Get yourself acquainted with the basic stuff as listed below and decipher what those gays are talking about next time you are at the parlor.
