PinoyPinoy (pɪˈnɔɪ pɪˈnɔi) is a common informal self-reference used by Filipinos to refer to citizens of the Philippines and their culture as well as to overseas Filipinos in the Filipino diaspora. A Pinoy who has any non-Filipino foreign ancestry is often informally called Tisoy, a shortened word for Mestizo. Many Filipinos refer to themselves as Pinoy, sometimes the feminine Pinay (pɪˈnaɪ pɪ'nai), instead of the standard term Filipino. Filipino is the widespread formal word used to call a citizen of the Philippines.
