Obeses? Obesis? Obisis?

By Kiko on October 8, 2008 at 11:30 pm

Spelling matters?

Spelling matters?


This post has something to do with my obsessive-compulsiveness so please bear with me… this has been my question for a loooonnggg time now: what’s the correct spelling of the street “Obeses?”

Is it Obeses, as written on the street sign? As far as I know, walang matataba sa Obesis. Is it Obesis, phonetically speaking? Or Obisis, with a hard Tagalog accent?

Is there any other streets in Pandacan that have confusing spelling? (I’ll give you one: Ylang-Ylang. :P )

I guess as long as the Post Office delivers the mails to the correct recipients, the spelling doesn’t matter.

(Oh, thanks to my bayaw for taking the pictures)

    alam niyo ba ang East Zamora at West Zamora e iisa lang? Ibig ko pong sabihin ay ganire, Zamora Street lamang po meron, nang ginawa kasi ang kalye ng Pres. Quirino eh dun nagsimula hatiin ang Zamora sa East at West. At di lang ‘yon mga kasamahan, nahati rin ang street na Sampaguita na susunod sa kalye ng Obeses.

    Baka nga nagkamali lang yung gumawa ng street sign na yan, pero bakit hindi man lang itinama diba? Anyway, I think it should really be Obesis and not Obeses, unless doon ako nakatira :D

    wala na ung buwaya kila Aling Alice. Ibinigay na lang nila sa Manila Zoo. Masyado na kasing malaki para maging alaga siguro.
    Ewan ko lang kung ginawa nila sa mga pagong na kasama nun.

    nakita ko pa yang buwaya na iyan na ikarga sa pick-up truck nuon. nagwala pa nga ung buwaya nun at tinamaan ung isang handler sa binti. akala ko e nabale ung binti ng mama, buti na lang at hinde pero iika-ika siyang maglakad nun.
    sa mga pagong eh ipinamigay yata sa mga gustong mag-alaga sa mga taga obesis.

    eh ung lawin na lumilipad dati sa himpapawid ng pandacan naalala niyo pa? balita dun eh nabaril daw ng isang taong may airgun kaya nawala agad.

    taga OBESIS ako dati. natatandaan ko yang buwaya na yan, malapit yan sa tindahan ni Mang Edie diba. sa may bandang gitna kami ng Obesis nakatira kina “Kaka” o “Ka Luning”.
