Pinoypɪˈnɔɪ/ .mw-parser-output .IPA-label-smallfont-size:85%.mw-parser-output .references .IPA-label-small,.mw-parser-output .infobox .IPA-label-small,.mw-parser-output .navbox .IPA-label-smallfont-size:100%Tagalog: [pɪˈnɔi]) is a common informal self-reference used by Filipinos to refer to citizens of the Philippines and their culture as well as to overseas Filipinos in the Filipino diaspora.[1][page needed][2] A Pinoy who has any non-Filipino foreign ancestry is often informally called Tisoy.

Many Filipinos refer to themselves as Pinoy, sometimes the feminine Pinay (/pɪˈnaɪ/ Tagalog: [pɪ'nai]), instead of the standard term Filipino.[1][page needed] Filipino is the widespread formal word used to call a citizen of the Philippines. Pinoy is formed by taking the last four letters of Filipino and adding the diminutive suffix -y in the Tagalog language (the suffix is commonly used in Filipino nicknames: e.g. "Noynoy" or "Kokoy" or "Toytoy"). Pinoy was used for self-identification by the first wave of Filipinos going to the continental United States before World War II and has been used both in a pejorative sense and as a term of endearment.[3][4][5]


Pinoy was created to differentiate the experiences of those immigrating to the United States, but is now a slang term used to refer to all people of Filipino descent.[1][page needed] "Pinoy music" impacted the socio-political climate of the 1970s and was employed by both Philippine president Ferdinand Marcos and the People Power Revolution that overthrew his regime. Recent mainstream usages tend to center on entertainment (Pinoy Big Brother) that can be watched on Pinoy Tambayan[6] and music (Pinoy Idol), which have played a significant role in developing national and cultural identity.


The term Pinoy was coined by expatriate Filipino Americans during the 1920s and was later adopted by Filipinos in the Philippines. According to historian Dawn Mabalon, the historical use has been to refer to Filipinos born or living in the United States and has been in constant use since the 1920s. She adds that it was reclaimed and politicized by "Filipino American activists and artists in the FilAm movements of the 1960s/1970s".[1][2]


The earliest known usages of Pinoy/Pinay in magazines and newspapers date to the 1920s include taking on social issues facing Pinoy, casual mentions of Pinoys at events, while some are advertisements from Hawaii from Filipinos themselves.[7][8][9] The following are the more notable earliest usages:


According to the late Filipino-American historian Dawn Bohulano Mabalon, another early attestation of the terms "Pinoy" and "Pinay" was in a 1926 issue of the Filipino Student Bulletin. The article that featured the terms is titled "Filipino Women in U.S. Excel in Their Courses: Invade Business, Politics."[11]


In the Philippines, the earliest published usage known is from December 1926, in History of the Philippine Press, which briefly mentions a weekly Spanish-Visayan-English publication called Pinoy based in Capiz and published by the Pinoy Publishing Company.[7][12] In 1930, the Manila-based magazine Khaki and Red: The Official Organ of the Constabulary and Police printed an article about street gangs stating "another is the 'Kapatiran' gang of Intramuros, composed of patrons of pools rooms who banded together to 'protect pinoys' from the abusive American soldados."[7][13]


I worked as a Food Service Director in skilled nursing facilities and public dining settings for 20+ years. I managed the daily operations, including but not limited to procurement and inventory of food and supplies, staff hiring and training, production and service of thousands of meals a day with an emphasis on food safety guidelines, organizing parties and special events, and participation in patients' nutritional analysis and care-planning.


In May 2016, I made the giant leap of faith to quit my job and blog full-time. May I say, best decision ever? I feel so blessed to wake up in the morning and do what I love to do in my pajamas! Nowadays, I spend my hours testing and developing delicious recipes and meal ideas, working with my team of uber-talented food photographers and videographers on creating content, connecting with readers on social media, and chronicling this exciting journey on the blog.


I was born and raised in the Philippines. In 1990, I migrated to California with my family. I never really learned, or should I say, never had to learn to cook in the Philippines. But, after a few weeks of living in the U.S. and living on fast food, I realized I had to find my way in the kitchen fast. You can only have so many McD's in your life.


I try to keep the recipes as authentic and as close to home as possible, but on occasions, I need to substitute due to limited or lack of access to indigenous ingredients. Cooking is subjective. The recipes here reflect my tastes, and they are for you to tweak, as necessary, to suit yours.


My family meals are mostly the simple and basic afritada, adobo or sinigang but I certainly do not shy away from the balut, the isaw, and the Adidas that make the Filipino cuisine unique. One of the dishes I terribly miss from home is ginisang camaro or sauteed crickets in tomatoes. Yes, crickets. Browse my favorite recipes!


"I've been looking for a leche flan that tastes like my Lola Puti's recipe. And voila! When I tried your recipe, made me happy and remembered the times when my Lola makes it and give us her leche flan. Thank you for the recipe!"


I have a question about a recipe. Can you help?

If you tried a recipe and found ways to improve it, please leave feedback and share it with other readers! Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. I love hearing what you think. You can email me at lyma...@kawalingpinoy.com or use this contact form.
