'Ber' is here
Manila Bulletin
|September 20, 2025
Ten days left in September, with 31 to go in October and 30 in November for a total of 71 days before December comes merrymaking in.
No apologies for the longest Christmas celebration in the world! lasting until January 6, feast of the Three Kings.
Since last weekend, signs of the “ber” fever were being seen and felt all over the malls big and small. For foreigners reading this who aren’t familiar with our slanguage, “ber” refers to the last syllable of the names of the ninth month (in its own way an anomaly, because “sept” in French means seven, not nine) and every month thereafter, until December.
