How Filipino and English compare
- Filipino and English are both written in the Latin alphabet, so names and shared words look the same in the English translation.
- Filipino and English come from different language families (Austronesian and Germanic), so most words have no shared root.
- Filipino usually puts words in the order verb–subject–object, with the verb first; English uses subject–verb–object, so sentences are reordered in translation.
