Social debates continue to heat up as the government wears its battle gear in trying to diminish the spread of Jejemonism in the sub-dominantly English-speaking country. However, the Catholic Church interferes, explaining that Jejemonism is a form of the freedom to express one's self without being judged and subjected to social embarrassment.
It can be recalled that the word "jejemon" has had a lot of origins, but most people believe that it is derived from "jeje", an alternate for the term "hehe" in the Filipino SMS texting scenario, and then affixing "jeje" with "mon" which came from the series Pokemon (Pocket Monsters).
A fresh and sizzling article in Inquirer.net now talks about the Philippines' fight against the Jejemon cyber language. Just click Philippines Wrestles with 'Jejemon' Cyber Language. The appropriate question here is, should someone be really bothered by such an existence? Or should everyone accept the fact that Jejemonism has indeed infiltrated present youth's everyday living? What will be its moral, social and economic impacts?
Are you one of them? Or are you engaged in a major campaign to exterminate this thriving language?
