  • Kapwa - this word is literally translated as ‘other’ or ‘other person’ but it is in a way untranslatable into English. 
  • Kapwa - embedded in an entirely different worldview and web of meanings unique to Philippine culture and history—namely, a Southeast Asian tribal and animist culture mixed with Spanish Catholicism. 
  • Kapwa - It is tribal and Christian at the same time. Therefore been translated by local scholars as ‘shared self’, ‘shared identity’, or ‘self-in-the-other’. I use ‘together with the person’.

  • Kagandahang-loob - This word is literally translated as ‘beauty-of-will’.
  • Kagandahang-loob - In this context is determined by one’s relationship towards the kapwa. Someone who has an affective concern for others and the willingness to help them in times of need.

  • Utang-na-loob - It is the natural response to kagandahang-loób.
  • Utang-na-loob - It is the self-imposed obligation to give back the same kind of kagandahang-loób to the person who has shown it to you.
    • When utang-na-loób is returned ‘with interest’, that is more than what is due, it can bring about a circular dynamic between two persons where the one who previously showed kagandahang-loób is now the one with utang- na-loób, and then vice versa;
  • Utang-na-loob - it continues to alternate and strengthen the relationship in the process.
  • Utang-na-loob - This is where kapwa naturally develops into mutually sacrificial friendships.
  • Pakikiramdam - The closest translation might be ‘relational sensitivity’ or ‘empathy’.
  • Pakikiramdam - It is about being skilled in reading the other person’s feelings and correctly guessing his inner state.
