What Is Privacy In Tagalog? (Answers)
PRIVACY IN TAGALOG – There are several Filipino words that do not have a direct translation in English, that’s why we need context to fully translate them.
In this article, we are going to talk about the Tagalog translation of the English word “Privacy” based on context.
Obviously, the Filipino language has a way of Filipinizing certain English words that are spelled based on how you would say it phonetically. As such, privacy can be translated as “Praybasi“.
However, that doesn’t quite satisfy what we’re looking for. Certainly there are other words that could fit the description of privacy in the Filipino language.
Often times, when we say privacy, what we really mean is “Pag-iisa” or being alone. Sometimes, the word “Pagsasarinlan” is also used. Although the use of the word “Pribado” is also accepted.
Here are some example sentences:
- Hindi ba ito panghihimasok sa pribadong buhay?
- Gusto ni Peter na mag-isa muna at ayaw niya ng kausap.
- Hindi lamang miminsan na nagambala ang kaniyang pag–iisa nang siya at ang kaniyang mga alagad ay nagsisikap na magkaroon ng lubhang-kinakailangang pahinga.
In English, the sentences could be translated as:
- Is this not an invasion of privacy?
- Peter wants some privacy, he doesn’t want to talk to anyone at the moment.
- On more than one occasion, his privacy was interrupted when he and his disciples were trying to get much-needed rest.
