 ‘A country’s national language is a national treasure that should be
preserved and passed on from generation to generation. The
Philippines is an archipelago of languages and one of the diverse
countries in the world. Philippines is a multilingual country,
attributing the diversity of its language to cultures of its people.
 Republic Act 1987, Article XIV Section 6,” The national language of
the Philippines is Filipino. As it evolves, it shall be further developed
and enriched on the basis of existing Philippine and other
languages.”
 Citing the 1990 census, the estimated number of Yogad speakers is
16,000 (Simons et al., 2017). Presently, the language is classified
as an EGIDS Level 6b (Threatened or endangered), as it is not
being actively passed on to children (Eberhard et al., 2021).
 Grande (2008) adds that because of migration of a majority
language group in the region, the Yogad speakers are being
outnumbered by a ratio of 2:1 is equivalent to 200% unlike Ilokano,
they have over million language users and considered as the most
visible ethnic group in Isabela (Philippine Statistics Authority,
2002).
 Due to the out-growing languages in the country, it reaches its point
that some of our languages are already extinct and some are
threatened. Yogad as one of the threatened languages (The Katig
Collective, 2022). Hence, Yogad is not far different from the other
language. One of the reasons why we are facing this is because of
the speakers of language itself, the vernacular is no longer being
passed to the next generation, signaling the potential risk of
extinction. (Commoner, 2021).
Statement of the Problem
 This study aims to investigate The Transmission of Yogad
Language in the Household in barangay Dammang West.
Conceptual Framework
This shows the process of language transmission within the household.

 The paradigm presented in this study shows the reason behind the
choice of language of the older generation, the transmission of that
language and how they transmit that language to the younger
generation. On the other hand, the younger generation could also
affect the reason behind the choice of language.
Significance of the Study
 Parents. This study will help them realize the importance of their
roles in the cultural development of their children as this may also
affect their child academic advancement.
 LGU. This will help the local government unit to determine the
perception of every resident towards to the effect of language
transmission to the younger generation.
 Community. This study also benefits the community as this
enables the learners and the households to distribute their cultural
knowledge towards the people in the community.
 Researchers. This study will help them to also widen and
understand their knowledge on how to enrich and sustain their
knowledge and connection on their culture by not just applying it on
their daily living but in every aspect of their lives.

Research Design
 This study will use a descriptive survey.
SCRIPT: According to Kothari and Garg (2019), descriptive- survey
method of research is designed for describing the characteristics of a particular
individual or a group of individuals.
 The main objective of the study is to describe the nature of a
situation as it exists at the time of the study and to explore the
causes of particular phenomena.
 The analysis of this type of data aimed to provide an explanation on
current issue or problems through the process of data collection
that enables them to describe the situation more completely.
 It is suitable for situations where researchers believe that the
information does not exist in order to solve problems. Therefore,
they have to examine the circumstances, collect the data, analyze
and interpret the data and reach a satisfactory solution.
Study Site and Participants
 The study will be conducted at the household in Barangay
Dammang West, Echuage, Isabela. The participants of the study
are the 30 household of Dammang West Echuage, Isabela.

Data Gathering Instruments Used
To ensure accurate data gathering, the instrument used is stated below:
 Questionnaire- It refers to the consistency of measures and
replicable they are, that is the degree to which an instrument
measure the same way each time it is used under the same
conditions with the same subjects (Holye. Harris & Judd 2002).
 Interviewing- it involves an interviewer, who coordinates the
process of the conversation and asks questions and an
interviewee, who responds to those questions. Interviews can be
conducted face-to-face or over the telephone (M. Easwaramoorthly
& Fataneh Zarinpoush, Imagine Canada 2006).
Data Gathering Procedures
The researcher will follow this procedure to gather information and get the
goal of the study:
 The researcher will construct questionnaire to gather answer from
the respondents. Before floating the survey questionnaire, the
researchers will ask permission to the National Commission on
Indigenous People (NCIP) for conducting the survey to the
Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Practices (IKSP) and its
community. The researchers will also conduct a pre-conference and
conference with the Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Practices

(IKSP) Also, the resesrchers will ask permission to the Barangay
Captains of Barangay Dammang West to conduct the survey.
 The researchers will then interview 30 households regarding the
study, giving questionnaire and conducting interview to gather
information. When the questionnaire and interview is accomplished,
the researchers will retrieve the data from the respondents then the
data gathered is tallied, tabulated, computed, analyzed and
interpreted.
