Pero kung noun, meron. :) i agree with lance and algie. depende kung pano gamitin. like lance said, if it's used as a noun, it's philippines. as in the university of the philippines, the republic of the philippines, or just the philippines. when used as an adjective, drop the 's'. as in the philippine islands or philippine eagle or philippine rabbit wasak 6th Jun '07 Wed, 15:06 philippines philippine island sabi ni :gma: jovrea27 6th Jun '07 Wed, 16:27 i agree with lance and algie. depende kung pano gamitin. like lance said, if it's used as a noun, it's philippines. as in the university of the philippines, the republic of the philippines, or just the philippines. when used as an adjective, drop the 's'. as in the philippine islands or philippine eagle or philippine rabbit pero dont u think its quite confusing... hindi naman ganyan sa ibang pangalan ng bansa diba? only in the philippines... aLgiE 6th Jun '07 Wed, 18:51 :lol: uu nga only in the philippines nga..but kadalasan gamit na philippines :) migz 6th Jun '07 Wed, 22:30 Eh how about sa United Kingdom? pwede rin nilang gamitin ang England? mas grabe un, hehehe...
