Meaning of Werpa, Lodi and FF || Keeping up with the Millennial’s

This is a bit off of my usual post but I wanted to share it anyway just in case someone out there might need help just like me.
I am a bit amazed that there are Pinoy (Philippines) Slang out there that I am not familiar with. Asking what is it right away might be the easiest thing to do but I find it really awkward and a bit weird to ask from someone. (haha they might judge me, just kidding)

Well, here they are the meaning of new Pinoy slang Werpa, Lodi and FF.

Werpa- means “power”. It is the product of playfully transposing the syllables from “po-wer” into “wer-pa”. Making the letter “a” instead of “o” makes it sounds more Filipino.

It is usually used as a cheer to boost someone’s confidence.

Example:   It’s my exam today, werpa!

Lodi- means “idol” spelt backwards. Commonly used as a tease to someone who is good at winning the hearts of many girls (womanizer) but can also be used simply as idolizing a certain character, for example, you are good with studying etc..

Example:   John Lloyd is my Lodi when it comes to girls.

FF- means following. It is commonly seen on Facebook comments thread. People simply put “FF or ff” so they can be notified once there is a new reply to that comment post.

It took me a while to find out what is the meaning of “ff” as I often hang out on Facebook and I always see this term when I read in the comments section. I know that ff is meant following but I don’t understand why they put it in the comments thread. Thank God I now know its meaning and just like to comment that it is simply brilliant. Putting two letters in the comment section or even any character actually will give you a Facebook notification whenever there’s new comment added to that post. (sorry for being shallow but I am just amazed)

So there you have it, the 3 new Pinoy slang that I didn’t know existed and apparently is commonly used now by everyone. If in case I discover another word that is unfamiliar to me I will definitely want to write their meaning’s here.

Thanks for reading all the way!
