Taglish vs Tagalog, what's acceptable? - Page 2

Okay, I get it.I myself try not to speak in "Conyo", but if I'm caught in a situation where I don't know the Tagalog word, I'll just speak in English, and just switch back to Tagalog when I can.Normally, I try my best code-switch unless the Tagalog equivalent does not yield the same meaning it would have in English. I can't think of certain examples off of the top of my head right now.

@AmboyBaritone Yeah, I'll only use an English word if there's no Tagalog equivalent, and whether it is considered "deep" or not it doesn't matter at all for me.I wouldn't use terms like "salumpuwet" instead of "upuan", but I would use "istante" instead of "shelf" or "paaralan/eskwelahan" instead of "school".

I am not sure "salumpwet" is still used today. I only heard about it because of one scene from a popular Teleserye.
How "deep" my Tagalog is doesn't really matter to me. What matters is that I can speak without my cousins laughing at me.
