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)

*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

Day 7: Different Sounds That Lettets Make In English (Based Off Of A Texan's Perspective).
Accents: Place a HUGE barrier among people who speak English. Even if a person pronounces a word differently, that does not mean they're wrong! However, these accents do not prevent the wide variety of english speakers from communicating unlike in the Philippines where the 'Language' is Tagalog (Filipino) and other 100+ languages are considered 'Dialects'
Here's the letter "A" for example.
Apple - "Ah"
Angel - "Ay"
Another - "Uh"
Aeroplane - "Eh"
Each day I will post a word in either Tagalog/Ilokano/Itneg/Spanish/or English. Tune in daily to learn something new!
*Some of you may or may not have noticed but the title of these post have a varied. The tag I will be placing on this series of post will be 'Carabao Languages'.
Nuang - Ilocano/Ilokano/Itneg
Kalabaw - Tagalog
Carabao - Spanish/English
(Fun fact: Carabao is a Spanish word!)
I chose 'Carabao Languages' as the title becaue in the Philippines people say "Carabao English" to describe that they speak Broken English. So, by translating Carabao into Ilokano/Itneg/Tagalog/Spanish/and English it makes these lessons less intimidating.

*Above is how to pronounce the letters based on how we say the letter in the Alphabet. Take note that the way the letter is said in a word changes deoending on a person's accent in addition to how the letter is used.
This is why English is considered the hardest language to learn. Depending on the origin of the word is how to decide what rule to use when spelling a word in English. But let's be real...
How To Spell and Speak In English:
1.Think: Does the word follow a rule?
-If Yes or Probably then move to step 2
2. Ask yourelf: How do I use that rule?
3. Break it.
4. Pronounce it 3 different ways at least
-Orange: Oh-range, R-ange, Or-Range
5.Spell the word 3 different ways and make the sound the same
5.1: Make them mean different things
Their, They're, There
