The most enjoyable way to learn about a new culture is through its stories—especially when they're told in two languages! This book introduces 40 stories from the Philippines through bilingual Tagalog and English texts presented on facing pages. Paired with cultural notes, vocabulary lists, exercises, comprehension questions and free online audio recordings, Tagalog Stories for Language Learners is an excellent resource for intermediate language learners, or those who wish to pick up a bit of Phlippine cultural knowledge. This compilation includes a mix of traditional folktales retold for a modern audience, as well as several well-known works of contemporary Philippine literature. Along the way, you will meet fabulous mythological characters like the Bagobo goddess Mebuyan and the shape-shifting Aswang. Other characters cope with day-to-day issues, such as the domestic worker who cannot find her keys and a beauty queen who leaves behind her comfortable city life in order to help peasants in the countryside. Four of the stories are by well-known Filipino writers and are presented in complete or partially condensed form. These include: Estrangheritis by Inigo Ed. Regalado (1907) — The writer is critical of Filipinos who exalt all things foreign while, in fact, benefitting from their own land but unappreciative of their national culture. Desire by Paz Latorena (1928) — The story of a Filipino woman who has to deal with the narrow-mindedness of a foreigner who is far more interested in her body than in her personality. Greta Garbo by Deogracia Rosaro (1930) — Monina, who looks like Greta Garbo, plans a weekend getaway with her beau, only to be left at the station waiting, and later discovers he has gone on a honeymoon! Maria Elena Paterno's Sampaguita (1991) —Two popular legends about the Sampaguita (Philippine jasmine flower) which touch on the themes of courage and forbidden love.

Following on from the success of the wildly popular The Fabulous Lost and Found and the little Tagalog mouse, bestselling author, and writer on the Emmy Winning Tales of Peter Rabbit, Mark Pallis returns to make learning Tagalog for kids and children even more fun! "Lingo Dingo loves to help. Anyone. Anytime. Anyhow...." In this heartwarming story, Lingo helps bake a cake for a friend. There's just one problem. The Chef only speaks Tagalog.... What could go wrong!?! This heartwarming English Tagalog kids book: Blends an English language story with over 50 Tagalog words and phrases so that children learn Tagalog without realising; Builds a child's confidence in engaging with a new language; Cements the foundation of a lifelong love of the Tagalog language. And now with the follow up bilingual Tagalog English story, Lingo Dingo and the Tagalog Chef, you can learn another 50 Tagalog words and phrases! This book uses the unique Story Powered Language Learning method work to help children learn Tagalog without realising it. Unlike other Tagalog English books for children, or traditional bilingual Tagalog English childrens books (or bilingual Tagalog English kids books), this Tagalog language learning book for kids is different. We take a fun character, Lingo Dingo, who kids will love, and then we put her in a tight squeeze, where she needs to figure out the meaning of the Tagalog words and phrases in the story in order to help save the day. Kids will be so busy laughing that they don't realise they're learning. Message from the Author I am passionate about learning languages. There is something special about that sense of connection you get when you talk to another person in their mother tongue. The expression 'they really spoke my language' really captures that magic feeling. So unlike other Tagalog childrens books, this book makes Tagalog for kids fun. I really wanted to focus on words and expressions that would make people smile. Imagine the joy on the child's face when they say that special phrase to a native speaker!

In just 6 months (roughly 70 hours), you'll be able to understand and participate in everyday Tagalog conversations. --- Lively Stories, Literal and Natural Translations, Pronunciation Marks --- Through lively stories and dialogues taken from everyday life in the Philippines, you'll learn useful Tagalog sentences from day one. In the dialogues, every Tagalog sentence is broken down into manageable chunks. Every word has a literal translation, and every sentence has a natural translation, showing you what each word means and how the sentence fits together. This will greatly help you understand how Tagalog works. It will also save you a lot of time, because you don't need to look up words. All Tagalog words and sentences in the learning materials have translations and pronunciation marks, so you'll know what every word means and how to pronounce it. --- "Whole" Language Learning --- The dialogues are also an ideal way to learn the "whole" language intuitively, with all its nuances, emotions, typical expressions and choice of words. By learning vocabulary and expressions in a meaningful context, you'll remember them more easily and you'll be able to use them in the right situations. --- Comprehensive Grammar Reference, Lesson Notes --- The cultural and grammatical notes in the lessons, paired with the comprehensive grammar reference, will give you an in-depth understanding of the language, using short, simple explanations and plenty of practical examples. You'll find the grammar reference a valuable resource, even long after you have reached fluency. --- Course Audio --- By listening to the audio tracks and repeating them out loud, you'll learn the correct Tagalog pronunciation and natural intonation. Doing this will also help you memorize the sentences. --- Workbooks --- The exercises in the workbooks are very effective at reinforcing the vocabulary and sentence patterns you have learned in the lessons. They are also a great way to test your progress. You can check your answers against the answer key provided at the end of each workbook. --- Well-thought-out Structure, Learner's Perspective --- The course has a well-thought-out structure that introduces useful material early on while still being easy to follow. It has been co-authored by a non-native speaker and carefully designed from the perspective of the learner. --- Level --- Learning Tagalog: Fluency Made Fast and Easy is suitable for beginners as well as intermediate learners.
