00:00Gat Jose Rizal claims that those who don't know how to love their own language are more than animals and fish.
00:11But what if the language is gone or dead?
00:15According to UNESCO, a language is alive or active if 200,000 people speak or use it.
00:22If it's less than that, the language is extinct.
00:26There are 130 languages in the Philippines now, according to the Commission on Filipino Languages.
00:32And of those, four are extinct.
00:37The first is the Arta language of the Barangay Disimungal in Nagtipunan, Kirino.
00:42Only 60 people speak it.
00:46There are four native languages that no longer speak.
00:50One of the main reasons why the language is extinct is when you leave your ancestral domain.
00:58It is often the case that the language is not used in the places where it is spoken.
01:04If they do not return to the community, the spread and teaching of their language will stop.
01:10That is why the KWF launched projects to save the languages that are extinct, such as the establishment of a language house.
01:18Here, their native languages are taught to the youth before they enter the formal school.
01:24It was started in 2018 in Barangay Bangkal in Abukay, Bataan.
01:29At home, we teach the native languages.
01:32My children are native speakers.
01:34We tell our teachers that they live in our community.
01:39They are taught by the natives.
01:41They need to learn the native languages.
01:44Twelve IP communities will be established here in Bataan.
01:48We will be using the language at home.
01:51That is one of the secrets of preserving the language.
01:55It should be used at home first.
01:59It will also be built in Negros and probably in Aurora.
02:03It is a long-term program to revive an extinct language or to strengthen it.
02:14It started in 2000 and in a long time,
02:19Hernando Guanlao published his book in Barangay La Paz, Makati City.
02:24It became open 24 hours for those who want to read it.
02:28He distributes his books for free in his so-called Reading Club 2000.
02:34It started with 50 books that he found in his house.
02:38Now, it is 1,000 books.
02:41A lot of knowledge is needed until the end of our country.
02:48There is a lack of knowledge in writing.
02:52200 books are lost here every day.
02:56200 happy people.
03:02Digital is the time and a lot of knowledge is obtained online.
03:06For Mangnani, the knowledge from each page of the book is different.
03:12In order to obtain more knowledge,
03:16he has a book van that travels for reading activities in different places.
03:21He also has an e-trike when he goes around and gives books for free.
03:26Giving books for free is a service or help to our fellowmen
03:32who are led by different generations.
03:35Mangnani's adhikain is also inspired and inspired by others,
03:39like Rika Acebuche, a Samar.
03:42The books that Mangnani gives for free,
03:44Rika brings them to his province
03:47for his fellowmen to read.
03:50In our province, there are not many reading centers in schools.
03:54That's why I want to have one.
03:56Because when I was in high school, I really love books.
03:59Their mission to help fellowmen and to share the importance of reading
04:04is really one for the books.
04:23Oh no! Dad's role has changed.
04:27Is Mom still the light of the house?
04:34E, what?
04:35Bird.
04:37Bird of the house?
04:39E, what's that up there?
04:41What's that?
04:43Fortunately, this is not a serious incident of Teacher Frederick
04:46of San Fernando Elementary School in Romblon.
04:50I was really surprised, Ma'am.
04:52Huh?
04:54Then a bird shouted.
04:56Huh?
04:58I was really shocked.
05:00These are just a few of the moments
05:03in Teacher Frederick's classroom,
05:05a.k.a. Inday Kalipay, on his page,
05:08where his students are also there
05:11and their grade 1 pupils are also there.
05:14It's really an extra effort to teach them
05:16and to get their attention.
05:20What's your name, Sir?
05:22What's your name?
05:24What's your name?
05:26What's your name?
05:27What's your name?
05:29Of course, when the students see that you don't have the energy,
05:34I can also see that they are like the light.
05:39In the 18 months that he has been teaching,
05:42he learned an important lesson.
05:46For me, the best visual aid or resources
05:50that we can give to the students is ourselves.
05:53Our resourcefulness, our creativity,
05:57and at the same time, our cheerfulness
05:59that gives happiness to the teaching and learning process.
