julia day: poop



My sister Carmina and her husband John were in the car with my little niece, Julia.  Something fell out of my sister's purse.

Carmina:  Ay, shit!

Julia:  (imitating her mother) Ay, shit!

C:  'Wag, masama 'yon.  'Wag mo ko tularan.

J:  Ano ba 'yon?

C:  Basta masama.

J:  Ano nga?

C:  Ibig sabihin nu'n, tae.  'Wag mong gayahin.  Masama.

J: Opo.

A little while later, somebody suddenly crossed the street and John had to slam on the brakes, surprising my sister and Julia.

Julia:  Ay, tae!

Again, NPS, this loses something in translation.  But here goes:

Carmina:  Ay, shit!

Julia:  (imitating her mother) Ay, shit!

C:  Don't say it, it's bad.  Don't imitate me.

J:  What does it mean?

C:  It's bad.

J:  What is it?

C:  It means "tae".  Don't imitate me.  It's bad.

J: Okay.
