Pronounced pee-lee-peen-ex, Pilipinx represents the people who are native to or identify with the Philippines as part of their ethnic and/or cultural identity. Pilipinx is our ERG's preferred spelling of Filipino or Filipina because the letter “F” did not exist in the native script of the Philippines (known as baybayin), and Pilipinx is the gender-neutral alternative to Pilipino, Pilipina or even Pilipin@.
