Another Look Into Philippine English Towards Users Awareness And Celebration

This paper is a review of literature and studies on Philippine English henceforth PhilE which have been conducted in almost two decades. I argue that a big number of Filipino speakers of English particularly the ESLEFL teachers in the provinces are either incognizant or still unopen to the thought of celebrating Philippine English hence I present briefly the concept of World Englishes WE review the existence of PhilE and briefly describe its lexicon and grammar as well as teachers attitude towards the language which has become one among more than a hundred Philippine languages. I advance its implication to ESLEFL teaching while encouraging readers especially my fellow speakers of PhilE to respect World Englishes paradigm and to celebrate PhilE.
