    Jolography
    By Paolo Manalo

    I. Introduction

    According to the study, jolography is a response to the development of a third-space


    of poetic language that foregoes "pure English" and "pure Filipino," and it employs
    obscure colloquial terms to generate amusing allusions at the same time. Despite the
    fact that some words are difficult to explain because they combine English and
    Tagalog, it nevertheless helped us improve our lyrical and literary abilities. We were
    able to assess the manner it was given thanks to the use of hilarious language. To
    address the emerging socioeconomic realities in the Philippines, there is linguistic
    experimentation, language breakdown, and hybrid language formation in both
    English and Filipino. Another aspect of creativity is the exploration of humor's
    potentials not merely as sources of amusement but also as contributions to the
    construction of national identities.

    II. Summary

    The Jolography of Paolo Manalo implies the modernity of the fashion-style and how it
    greatly affects in our lives. We can tell that there are still a lot of yo-yos in the outside
    population today. Jologs and baduys are also common in contemporary society.
    However, it is still a wonderful thing because fashion was once a form of art. Being
    stylish has no sexual appeal. The poem "Jolography" depicted people's way of life as
    hip and stylish. For instance, "Oh, how dead you child are" in Tagalog simply means
    "Patay kang bata ka." A particular child acting pampered by flaunting his good looks.
    Being beautiful doesn't just mean feeling beautiful; it also means enjoying the beauty
    of things like the Cubao language being spoken and how it could be seen when
    crossing the Ibabaw (somewhere a place in Manila).

    III. Conclusion

    I came to see that the significance of the two languages, starting with Filipino and
    continuing through English, is conveyed through this poetry. Each word in the
    poem's lines has a unique meaning. The poem's emphasis on and embrace of the
    beauty of the language, which is mentioned in the line "beautifulling as we speak in
    Cubao," is a plus. However, the way individuals dressed like they were baduy
    somehow infused fashion. I can also feel the jologs' humorous and happy life.
