What are the meaning of panalo song?

madreJ [45]

Born in the Philippines, Ez Mil created Panalo as the pride song of Pinoy, with a title that literally translates to victory and combines Tagalog and Ilocano.

The song itself even features Carinosa, a song from a traditional Filipino folk dance. However, one lyric from the song annoyed some listeners.

EZ MIL’S PANALO LYRICS

During the song, Ez Mil raps that Filipino hero Lapu-Lapu was beheaded in the Battle of Mactan. However, the lyric isn’t factually true. Instead, Lapu-Lapu and his warriors defeated and killed Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan.

“Nanalo na ako nung una pa na pinugutan si Lapu sa Mactan,” which translates to “I already won the moment Lapu-[Lapu] was beheaded in Mactan.”

Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.

ludmilkaskok [199]

We planned to take a trip to Asia in three years or less.

The modifier "in three years or less" was misplaced.

A misplaced modifier is a word or phrase which is separated from the subject it modifies, thus making the sentence syntactically incorrect as well as illogical: I found the stained man's hankerchief.

A squinting modifier creates ambiguity in a sentence through its placement, by making it unclear which part it modifies (the one that comes before it or the one that comes after it): Combing your hair softly detangles it.

A dangling modifier gives an information without clearly stating its subject in the sentence. It often consists of "having + past participle" or "being + past participle" constructions, like: Being tired after the show, going straight home was the best plan.

Based on what you’ve learned during this lesson, why is it important for a drama, especially a tragedy, to address a theme?

valentinak56 [21]

You need to adress a theme so that the audience knows how trajec it is. If you do not express or show a theme, it would be less dramatic. A drama is all about showing expression, scene, theme, costumes, etc.

Hope this helps! :)
