Talk:Tapa (Filipino cuisine)

Latest comment: 10 years ago by Wmsigler

Clarifying what I read on 01:04, 18 January 2014 (last edit by Bryski_25) "According to some sources, tapsilog[3] and tapsihan[4] are colloquial slang words. However, these terms are used by those restaurants and many Filipinos of all social strata. Tapsilog and tapsihan, therefore, may be considered standard words in the Filipino language rather than slang." This is somewhat true, though it might be useful to know that "tapsilog" is an abbreviation of "tapas + sinangag + itlog", and "tapsihan" would basically mean "place you can get tapsi(log)". While these words might technically be slang, they would be widely recognized and understood, at least in the Metro Manila area. I don't have a source for this, just what I remember from my couple of years living in the Philippines. :) Wmsigler (talk) 15:09, 19 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
