But I asked the maid what did 'batik' mean, she said it means 'boy' in their language. As I see from their tones and faces, it didn't match with 'boy' when they were talking. Do you know any bad language in Phil with similar pronounciation?
I also found that my son said 'mother yxx' when he yelled at her. Do you know that it's foul language or not? Because my hubby and I never say that. I think he learnt from her !
