Needs sound bite
If someone could provide a wonderful free audio rendition of how the vendors pronounce taho along side the section mentioning it, it would be a nice addition to the page. Reading and seeing it isn't good enough IMO. - 6etonyourfeet (talk?) 23:46, 8 April 2008 (UTC)


 * If your still interested in the way 'Taho' is said see this Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3PUsMFUWFo&NR=1 basically at 0:04 the lady says it they way a vendor would say it, but not as loudly. -129.94.30.7 (talk) 08:33, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Spelling is out of touch with reality
Whoever genius edited this article and replaced all supposed final /o/ of the lemma taho with a phoneticized ô needs to review the 1987 revised Tagalog orthography. It would be better to avoid exoticizing our local terminologies on entire articles by being too conscious of how non-natives would pronounce them. A simple IPA template of a corresponding language that has the word beside the first mention of the topic is enough.

China did not influence pre colonial filipinos
There is little confidence in the identity of the traders who brought Chinese trade items to what is now the Philippines prior to the 15th century or so. We are only certain that many of the wares (porcelain, for example) excavated at various archaeological sites around the Philippines are of Chinese origin. Evidence for the identity of the merchants, sailors, and others is fragmentary and mostly anecdotal.

Following on that, while the majority of those Chinese who sojourned and settled in the Philippines (mostly from the 16th century on) were indeed from Fujian ("Hokkien" should be used only to designate the dialect of those from southern Fujian, not the place, although "hok-kian" in fact is "Fujian" in southern Min/Fujian dialect...), we have no idea where those occasional earlier Chinese visitors came from. There is also less confidence, even among culinary historians, about when particular dishes appeared in regional Chinese cooking.

Many Chinese foods that have become part of Filipino cuisine such as pancit, lumpia, bihon, taho, tokwat, tikoy, etc.are shared with other regions where the southern Fujianese emigrated (notably Taiwan, Indonesia, and the Malay Peninsula). It is possible to correlate the flow of those foods out of China with the history of migration from that area, but it is not convincing to suggest that these foods were adopted into Filipino cuisine as soon as a few Chinese appeared on Filipino shores. It is much more likely that the Chinese influence only became apparent when there were sufficient numbers of Hokkien-speaking Chinese in the Philippines, and this was most certainly not in the Song period! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.147.20.110 (talk) 00:30, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
