- Description:
- Food heritage supporters can sustain Pampanga’s traditional culinary vocabulary. It, as with other Philippine languages, proves the keen sensitivities of foragers and farmers alike. GAGUIAU describes raw-like for fresh fish, meat, egg, vegetables, fruits. CULDA is a green color “like a fruit in its early stage”. Worth visual and fashion artists noting the hue. Ripeness is expressed in MALULUT (ripening), MALALAY (being ripe; maturity reached), MALUMON (to become ripe, like a bunch of bananas), CALUMUNAN (peak of ripeness). MALUGÔ is fruit that falls off its tree by itself. DUNOT is an adjective for rotten, putrified such as a bruised fruit, destroyed or over ripe. Fruit spot is called ABSIC, black spots or patches on a fruit or tuber; also hardness of a fruit despite its ripeness. By keeping the words in use, each new generation sustains keen awareness passed on. It is valuable cultural knowledge.
