Carabao Languages: Day Fourteen

Day 14: Review #1 & #2

1.
Tagalog: Isa (EE-sah)
Ilokano: Maysa
Itneg: (My-sa)
Spanish: Uno
(Español): (oo-no)
English: One (Wuh-un)

2.
Tagalog: Dalawa (Dah-lah-wah)
Ilokano: Duwa
Itneg: (Do-wah)

*Spanish numbers are used in some locations in the Philippines. English is welcomed also (but less likely unless the number exceeds 100). Use spanish numbers in place of numbers you dont know.

*V = B

Viente - Spanish (Español)
Biente - Tagalog

*Most Filipinos who speak Tagalog and/or Ilokano will understand numbers over 20.

EX: 20 and 40

Say that you're shopping. Your total at the register is P20 or P40.

*P - Pesos

The cashier would say, "Biente" or "Cuarenta" or they would say it in English. I have yet to hear any number over 30 in Taglog/Ilokano/Itneg
