Too ba the speaker/teacher does not speak the words like a native speaker. The ‘r’ … is NOT pronounced the way it is in English…

She pronounced the letter “T” in salamat wrong (the first five times!! even when she’s breaking it down.) She only got it right when she tried using her natural Filipino accent. I think it’s because she’s trynna sound fancy. >,

Just curious, why is this called Filipino and not Tagalog? The philippines has many dialects, and Tagalog is the national language. This may sound misleading when, if someone goes to another part which uses their dialect more often, and then gets rather confused.

Also, it’s best to teach the phonics around the same time as learning the word. My relatives correct me if I say it wrong. Just to help others out, remember that Tagalog has a spanish influence. T’s sound like a very light Th. There is no F.

If you have to, look up Mikey Bustos Filipino Accent. He uses humor to explain the culture and language better. In short, Filipino is the people, Tagalog is the language.
