ILOCANO ONLINE

About

ILOCANO ONLINE, in spite of the name, is a weblog written in both Ilocano and English.  Most any topic is fair game here but we’ll try to focus on the Ilocano language and Iloco literature and culture as we go along.  We use English every now and then to reach a wider audience because we’re aware that there are those among the younger generation who have an Ilocano heritage but who have been born far removed from Ilocandia and don’t read or communicate in their ancestral tongue.  We use Ilocano, as well, laced with some code-switching on occasion which of course exposes our inadequacies.  We invite your comments and/or participation as guest bloggers here.  We only ask for a modicum of conduct befitting a civilized exchange of ideas.  – Joe Padre [See me in Facebook]
