Questions & Answers about Ehersisyo tayo araw-araw upang maging ligtas at malusog.

Why do we say Ehersisyo tayo instead of Mag-ehersisyo tayo?

In everyday speech, Filipinos often shorten Mag-ehersisyo tayo to Ehersisyo tayo for simplicity and impact. Both forms are acceptable. Mag-ehersisyo tayo is more explicit (literally, "Let us do exercise"), while Ehersisyo tayo is a friendly, concise way to invite others to exercise.

Why is araw-araw repeated?

In Filipino, some words are duplicated to emphasize a regular or continuous action. Araw-araw literally means "day by day" or "every day," making it clear that the action (exercising) is supposed to happen on a daily basis.

What is the role of upang in the sentence?

Upang is a formal or literary way to say "in order to" or "so that." In everyday conversation, you might also hear para used. Both mean the purpose of doing something. So here, upang shows that the reason for exercising daily is to ensure safety and good health.

Why do we use maging ligtas at malusog instead of something like napakaligtas at napakalusog?

The word maging means "to become," indicating a goal or condition we want to achieve. If you say napakaligtas ("very safe") or napakalusog ("very healthy"), you're describing a present or ongoing state rather than a goal. Using maging focuses on the idea of becoming or maintaining safety and health through the action of exercising daily.
