This week on Queer as Fact we’ve been learning some words in Beki, a queer language used in the Philippines. Beki was created by queer people to avoid being understood by others, and uses wordplay, pop-culture references and sound changes to create new words to replace normal vocab. It draws on Indigenous languages from the Philippines like Tagalog and Cebuano, as well as English, Spanish, Japanese, and other languages from around the world.

Some of my favourite Beki words are ones describing sexual orientations. Here’s a just a few (we are a history podcast so these may be outdated....)

True blue - straight

Double-blade - bisexual

Bianing - lesbian (from the English word lesbian plus the diminuitive -ing)

Baki - bisexual (from the Cebuano word for frog, since frogs live both on land and in water)

Magic - lesbian (because they’re like “magicians with wands”)

Kwaknit - gay man (from the Cebuano word for bat, since bats and gay men both cruise at night)

Check out our podcast if you want to learn more Beki words!
