  • Inclusion and Cultural Preservation for the Ifugao People
    421 Journal of Southeast Asian Human Rights, Vol.2 No. 2 December 2018. pp. 421-447 doi: 10.19184/jseahr.v2i2.8232 © University of Jember & Indonesian Consortium for Human Rights Lecturers Inclusion and Cultural Preservation for the Ifugao People Ellisiah U. Jocson Managing Director, OneLife Foundation Inc. (OLFI), M.A.Ed Candidate, University of the Philippines, Diliman Abstract This study seeks to offer insight into the paradox between two ideologies that are currently being promoted in Philippine society and identify the relationship of both towards the indigenous community of the Ifugao in the country. Inclusion is a growing trend in many areas, such as education, business, and development. However, there is ambiguity in terms of educating and promoting inclusion for indigenous groups, particularly in the Philippines. Mandates to promote cultural preservation also present limits to the ability of indigenous people to partake in the cultures of mainstream society. The Ifugao, together with other indigenous tribes in the Philippines, are at a state of disadvantage due to the discrepancies between the rights that they receive relative to the more urbanized areas of the country. The desire to preserve the Ifugao culture and to become inclusive in delivering equal rights and services create divided vantages that seem to present a rift and dilemma deciding which ideology to promulgate. Apart from these imbalances, the stance of the Ifugao regarding this matter is unclear, particularly if they observe and follow a central principle. Given that the notion of inclusion is to accommodate everyone regardless of “race, gender, disability, ethnicity, social class, and religion,” it is highly imperative to provide clarity to this issue and identify what actions to take.

  • Title <Articles>A Phonological Sketch of Ilocano Author(S) YAMAMOTO
    Title <Articles>A phonological sketch of Ilocano Author(s) YAMAMOTO, Kyosuke Citation 京都大学言語学研究 (2017), 36: 21-49 Issue Date 2017-12-31 URL https://doi.org/10.14989/230686 Right © 京都大学言語学研究室 2017 Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University 京都大学言語学研究 (Kyoto University Linguistic Research) 36 (2017), 21 –49 A phonological sketch of Ilocano Kyosuke Yamamoto Abstract: In this paper I describe and analyze the phonology of the northern dialect of Ilocano (Western Malayo-Polynesian, Northern Luzon). The description includes segmental phonology, syllable structure and weight, stress placement, and phonological processes. I also argue the following. First, the phonemic status of the glottal stop depends on the environment. It is partly phonemic, but epenthetic in particular environments. Second, syllables that contain a long vowel are heavy but open syllables with a short vowel and closed syllables should be considered as light. Third, Ilocano has no diphthongs and those which have been considered to be diphthongs are in fact a sequence of a consonant and vowel. Fourth, the assignment of stress is almost entirely predictable and is assumed to be essentially postlexical. Fifth, in Ilocano three distinct prosodic word domains, the lowest prosodic constituent which is related to morphosyntactic constituency, should be posited to describe phonological processes. I also show that most of these processes repair ill-formed syllable structures.*1 Keywords: Ilocano, Austronesian, segmental phonology, prosodic phonology 1 The Ilocano language The Ilocano language is a Western Malayo-Polynesian language of the Austronesian Family (Blust 2013) and is spoken by about 9 million people in the northwest of Luzon Island in the Philippines (Rubino 2005), serving as the lingua franca of the region.

  • (MTB-MLE) Learning Materials: an Analysis of K to 12 Ilocano Short Stories
    The Suitability of Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) Learning Materials: An Analysis of K to 12 Ilocano Short Stories Jillian Loise L. Melchor, University of the Philippines-Diliman Abstract The country’s archipelagic nature is an ever-present feature of any Filipinist discourse. This is especially palpable when crafting language policies. Contemporary Philippines displays a discernible paradigm shift in its approach on the language question. The nationalist discourse appears to be replaced by a cultural imperative to preserve indigenous heritage, which owes its vibrancy to the country’s plural composition. In 2012, the unprecedented Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) scheme was implemented as a crucial component of the Department of Education’s radical adoption of the K-12 Basic Education Program. Despite the scheme’s noble objective of making “Filipino children life-long learners in their L1 (MT), L2 (Filipino, the national language), and L3 (English, the global language)” (DepEd, 2013), policy implementation falls short due to the scarcity of readily-available learning materials. Of the eighteen indigenous languages adopted by the MTB-MLE scheme, Ilocano is the only regional language represented on DepEd’s online didactic platform. This paper is a language-specific study of the suitability of learning materials made accessible on DepEd Tambayan which features a compilation of nineteen Ilocano short stories. It interrogates the short stories’ linguistic and sociocultural elements, drawing attention to the glaring inaccuracies that pervade these texts intended as learning materials. The proposal of flawed didactic materials is unfortunately indicative of the department’s ineptitude in implementing the mother-tongue framework, which in turn is symptomatic of the hastiness of the whole K-12 project.

Casil1 1Department of Graduate Programs Computer Science Technological Institute of the Philippines, Quezon City Abstract: Natural Language Processing is broadly defined as the automatic manipulation of natural language like text, by software. It provides both theory and implementations for a range of applications such as Machine Translation (MT). This study introduces a new way of implementing approaches for machine translation that utilized the strength of Example-based and Rule-based Machine Translation in translating English to Ilokano sentence. Since there are a lot of single words in Ilokano language that can be expressed in whole sentence in its equivalent English language, Example-based approach was used to translate those sentences. For the rest of the sentences, Rule-based approach was the idea for translating that involves analyzation, transfer and generation phases. The Stanford Log-linear Part-Of-Speech Tagger was used to analysed the input English sentence to get the part of speech (POS) for each word. Pattern grammar rules in English and Ilokano have been applied to check the grammar of the sentences. For the mixed translation, the combination of the two approaches was used to translate the sentence. The performance of the translator was being evaluated by comparing the reference output from the MT output.

However, one concern that is seldom mentioned in the literature is the learners’ attitude toward the languages they learn in the process. This is crucial because this attitude could reveal their learning motivations and formation of linguistic and sociocultural identity. Informed by the notion of language attitudes and construction of identity, this study explores the perception of trilingual children on their mother tongue and second languages—Ilocano, Filipino, and English, vis-à-vis their identity construction. Results show that most of the learners hold a positive attitude toward the three languages. However, the identified negative attitudes of some learners as regards these languages may cause pedagogical concerns linking to language teaching and the discourse of culture, nationalism, and globalization. Keywords: language attitude, identity construction, mother tongue-based multilingual education (MTB-MLE) Introduction The implementation of the Mother Tongue-based-Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) curriculum in the Philippines has effected a major change in its educational system.

A total of 178 works from 1580 to 2011, are listed and annotated, ten of which are newer editions, translations, or published editions (of theses and dissertations) of earlier entries. The list is arranged chronologically, with a note indicating the reference as well as an annotation from the same. Both note and annotation are written following the bibliographic entry. Annotation is also provided for works that were personally accessed. Key Words: Philippine languages, Philippine linguistics, Chinese, Filipino-Chinese, Chinese in the Philippines, bibliography PSSR 66/2 (2014): 61-113 Farah C. Cunanan Survey of works on Philippine languages written by Chinese authors Introduction This paper is a survey of the works on Philippine languages written by Chinese authors. The term, “Chinese authors”, here refers to full-blooded Chinese, Chinese-Filipinos/Filipino-Chinese, and Filipinos of Chinese descent. Previous bibliographies have compiled works on Philippine languages written by Europeans (Salazar 1989, 2012 and Vibar 2010), Americans (Flores 1991), Japanese (Shinoda 1990), and Filipinos (Gonzales 1989). None so far has been done on works written by Chinese authors. State-of- the-art researches (Quakenbush 2005, Constantino 1998, L.
