Kumusta Ka/po

What is Kumusta Ka/po?


1.

Okay, I'm filipino so I could correct a few errors.

One thing you got wrong is that it goes the other way around. Kumusta ka is the informal way while Kumusta po is the formal way. Also, Kumusta po can also be written as Kumusta ka po. There won't be any difference in the basic meaning of the phrase. The word 'na' can also be added before the 'ka', like "kumusta ka na", or "kumusta ka na po".

Tagalog for "How are you?" Kumusta ka is formal and kumusta po is informal. Notice it is very similar to the spanish "Como esta?" Thats cuz the spaniards occupied The Philippines and a lot of Tagalog words are similar to spanish.
