A1 Expression カジュアル

Ano uli?

What again?

意味

Asking someone to repeat what they said.

🌍

文化的背景

In Manila, 'Ano uli?' is often said very quickly, almost sounding like 'An-uli?'. It's part of the fast-paced urban lifestyle. While Tagalog is the national language, Visayans might say 'Unsa gani?' which is the direct equivalent of 'Ano uli?'. Younger Filipinos might use 'Ano kamo?' or even just 'Ha?' more frequently than 'Ano uli?' in very casual settings. In offices, even if the conversation is in English, Filipinos will often slip in 'Ano po uli?' when they miss a detail in a meeting.

🎯

The 'Po' Rule

If you're ever in doubt, just use 'Ano po uli?'. It's never wrong to be too polite in the Philippines.

⚠️

Tone Matters

Avoid a flat tone. A flat 'Ano uli' can sound like you're bored or annoyed.
