when Filipinos didn't hear you and just opened their mouths its like the silent version of "huh?" only it is spelled as "ha?" like the opening word of a question, "huh? what did you said? " :D It's used often if the speaker and listener are at viewable distance.
Curling your index finger to say “come here” is a no-no in many Asian countries. In the Philippines, this gesture is only used for dogs and can be punishable by arrest. To use it with a person is disrespectful.
That is a myth. There is no law in the PI that prohibits anyone from calling another person over with his or her finger. It is true though that it is considered condescending and rude so you may not get a friendly response.
doing that with your finger and calling people is rude coz its only for animals it means your treating someone like an animal if you call them with like that with your finger
You did really nailed it. You are really good at observing Filipinos. Good that you are part of these people who observed Filipinos. Keep a good job.
