yes vi...they do know english...unfortunately,few people only speak fluently because others,it's either because they don't listen to the teacher during english classes and or they are just scared to speak. but all in all,most understand english.

I still think a chatroom would be better, bur this is good!

yes,i'm still hoping for the chatroom thing and i believe that it would be more appropriate if we put it on the Language section so we can't have any problem.

wow! this is great : D is Kamusta "hi"? how do you say "bye"? : D or "what is your name" and "my name is ..."??

Kamusta or Kumusta is actually "How are you?" but it is used as a form of greeting.And as for Hi or Hello,as far as I know,there is no actual word for that.

Paalam for good-bye.

I will post the other translations and some useful phrases tomorrow. Have a good day!

Lesson 1: The Filipino Alphabet

Alpabetong Pilipino

filipino.gif

The Philippine Alphabet has 28 letters.If you notice it is similar to the English Alphabet aside form the letters Ññ and Ngng.

Ññ is adopted from the Spanish alphabet while the Ngng came from the original or the Pre-Hispanic Filipino Alphabet.

The Vowels:

Compared to English Vowels,the Filipino Vowels consist of only one sound.

Pronounce-------as in English--------Example

a-------------------------father------------- Magandang umaga,good morning

e-------------------------egg-----------------Nene

i-------------------------each---------------ibig,want

o-------------------------long---------------totoo, true

u-------------------------food-------------- kukunin, will take

Note:The languages of the pre-Hispanic Filipinos only had three vowels: "a," "e/i" and "o/u." Even today you may hear many Filipinos interchange "e" and "i," and "o" and 'u."

The Consonants:

Pronounce consonants as in English with the following considerations:

1. "g" is always hard, as in "get," never as in "gel."

2. "c, f, q, v, x" exist only in words adopted from other languages.

3. Pronounce adopted words as in their home language.

4. All other consonants are pronounced as in English.

5. In addition, there is the "ng" consonant; in the Filipino alphabet, it comes after "ñ"

6.More on the Pronunciation of "ng" shortly

Note:The languages of the pre-Hispanic Filipinos did not have the consonants "c," "f," "j," "q," "v," "x" and "z." Even today you may hear many Filipinos pronounce "v" as "b" and "f" as "p."

The Consonant "Ng"

To produce the "nga" sound, do the following.

a. Say "hanger"

b. Say "hang a."

c. Say "ang a."

d. Say "ng a."

e. Say "nga."

Practice "nga" with the following words:

· ang

· mga (short for "manga," the plural marker for nouns and pronouns)

· nang

· ng (pronounced like "nang," but is a different word)

· mangarap, to dream

· sanga, branch

· ngayón, now

· kailangan, need


So? That ends our Lesson for today. If you have any questions or concerns ask me.
