Many zamboangueños pronounce the letters “V” as “B” , the “F” as “P” and the “Z” as “S”. However they may say “chabacano” but they will write it as “chavacano”, they’d say “prio” but they will write it down as “frio” or say “crus” but correctly write it down as “cruz“.
- This comes out of the mouth of a Chavacano person: “Yo si Rodolpo Palcatan Crus. De samboanga yo y chabacano mi lenguaje.”
- If he writes it down, it will look like this: “Yo si Rodolfo Falcatan Cruz. De Zamboanga yo y chavacano mi lenguaje.”
The word CHAVACANO is only as old as the chavacano language itself. The word Chavacano is not a spanish word. The people of Zamboanga “coined” the word.
