A great percentage of Filipinos speak English. So the word friend is understandable and acceptable. In our language, we say kaibigan. In our local dialect, we say gayyem. It's really fun learning new words especially from other countries!

Here we say friend, amigo, buddy, pal, bff (best friend forever). I'm sure there's more but I usually just stick with friend or amigo. I guess it depends on my mood.
