Terms
Since the show takes place in a Spanish-speaking country, many terms and stunt names are in Spanish, an official language of the Philippines from the 19th to the late 20th centuries. It is noted, however, that some Spanish titles that appear on the show are either grammatically incorrect (Rondas Sin de Eliminación instead of Rondas sin Eliminaciónes), wrongly used (the article una used to mean "first" rather than primera), or even misspelled (tersera instead of tercera).
- El Campo Miedo (Camp Fear): the lodge serving as the residence for the contestants.
- Participantes (participants): used to refer to the contestants of the show.
- Rondas de Eliminación (Elimination Rounds): they are the elimination rounds where they compete to stay longer in the competition. The performances of the contestants in the first stunt will determine who will compete in the succeeding stunts. The next two elimination stunts will pit the worst performers against each other to prevent themselves from further elimination. The worst performer in the third stunt is sent back to the Philippines.
- Rondas Sin de Eliminación (Non-Elimination Rounds): rounds of stunts in which the best performers would compete for a prize which may be different from the grand prize. Like the elimination rounds, there are also three stunts. The best performer in the third stunt wins a specific prize mentioned by the host, which may be different from the grand prize.

Famous quotes containing the word terms:
“Certainly for us of the modern world, with its conflicting claims, its entangled interests, distracted by so many sorrows, so many preoccupations, so bewildering an experience, the problem of unity with ourselves in blitheness and repose, is far harder than it was for the Greek within the simple terms of antique life. Yet, not less than ever, the intellect demands completeness, centrality.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“As poverty has been reduced in terms of mere survival, it has become more profound in terms of our way of life.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
“The mystic purchases a moment of exhilaration with a lifetime of confusion; and the confusion is infectious and destructive. It is confusing and destructive to try and explain anything in terms of anything else, poetry in terms of psychology.”
—Basil Bunting (1900–1985)
