Depreciation

Sister: Ate, pwede bang pahiram ng bagong phone mo?
Me: (stares) Hmmmmm....
Sister: Pwede pa-picture?
Me: Sige. Ingat ha.
*Sister takes pictures.*
Sister: Pano mag-video? Pwede pa-txt? At anu-ano mga games dito?
Me: (slightly irritated) Wag mo masyado galawin. Mabilis magde-depreciate yan.
Sister: Ano yung depreciate?
Me: ...
Me:Uhmmm..
Me: ...
Me: May Snake 3 na jan.

=============================================
From Wikipedia:
Depreciation is a term used in accounting, economics and finance with reference to the fact that assets with finite lives lose value over time. (There is also a separate use in international finance to refer to a reduction in the exchange rate of a currency - see Depreciation (currency)).
In accounting, depreciation is a term used to describe any method of attributing the historical or purchase cost of an
asset across its useful life, roughly corresponding to normal wear and tear.[1] It is of most use when dealing with assets of a short, fixed service life, and which lose value over that life.
