मतलब
The polite form of 'oo' used with elders.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'pagmamano' gesture (hand-to-forehead) is often accompanied by 'opo'. In fast-paced city life, 'opo' is still mandatory in professional settings. Respect is even more emphasized; 'opo' is used for almost everyone older. Filipinos abroad often teach their children 'opo' to keep the culture alive.
The Golden Rule
When in doubt, use 'opo'. It is better to be too polite than not polite enough.
The 'Po' Habit
Try to add 'po' to every sentence when talking to an elder, not just the 'yes'.
