Why am I laughing watching this? 😅 I find Ovela so cute when questioning about why Filipinos pronounced "ng" as "nang" when there's no "a" between them 😂 but BIG RESPECT to this guy who wants to learn our language 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Mabuhay ka, Ovela 👏🏻
I think you did well. Of course, it's not perfect, but you nailed most of them :) THE INTRODUCTION LESSON: (1) ACTUALLY, while we often say "KAmusta", the right way to say it is "KUmusta", as written on the screen. It's from the Spanish "Como esta", which also really means "How are you?" There's no actual translation here for "Hi" and "Hello". We just adopted them. Meanwhile, to be strict about it, it's supposed to be "Ikinagagalak", not just "Kinagagalak". The "I" is said so fast, it becomes silent-sounding that's why she said "kinagagalak". Anyway, that's is deeper Tagalog. She sounds like a textbook saying it like that. People don't really say it anymore, just in books and by old characters in movies. You can say "Natutuwa" instead. That also means "Happy" in the present tense. (2) There is no direct translation for "PO". "OPO" is the more respectful version of "OO", which means "YES"...The addition of "NG" to a word serves to shorten a sentence. For instance, a more formal sentence would go like this: "Ikinagagalak ko na makilala ka". "NA" here means "TO", so "It's nice to meet you." To shorten the sentence, you rid of the "NA" and add the "NG" to the previous word (it has to end in a vowel, otherwise, the "NA" is required). "KAYONG" need not be applied only to "all of you" -- it can still be for the singular "you", but the person should be older than the speaker. Or someone of higher authority or position. It's a sign of respect as well.
@THE SANDBOX SHOW kinagagalak lng talaga ang tinuro nya, ndi dahil sobrang bilis kaya naging silent wala i talaga ang tinuro nya kinagagalak at ikinagagalak ay the same lng naman po
This is such an amazing video/tutorial. It’s like I’m learning with Ovela. I can understand Tagalog when in conversations with my relatives. But if I can to read or write Tagalog, I’m lost. Let’s learn together, Ovela.
I do not know why I haven't seen this video. I watch a lot of your videos and I really enjoyed your videos and love for the people and the culture. But I was stunned to realize, half way to the video, that this is a 40 min video that made me appriciate and respect you even more. I'm really appreciative of your efforts to know and learn and SHARE our language, culture, ways and our smiles. Thank you, Ovela. Take care always and more power to you and to your channel. AC from the US.
Good job learning our language, Ovela. Take note that in Filipino language, "kung anong bigkas ay siya ring baybay" meaning, it's pronounced the way it is spelled. Let me also add that, the connector 'm' is used if it is followed with letters p & b, not just p (ex. Pang bata = pambata, means, for kids) and lastly, 'kUmusta is the correct spelling and the proper pronunciation of the word but 'kAmusta' is acceptable pronunciation too. Maraming salamat for taking time to learn basics of our lingwahe. ☺
I feel sad reading fellow filipino comments about telling Ovela to just use taglish cause we understand.. YES, we do understand taglish or even just english, BUT we forgot to give importance to our own language, the Tagalog Language.. slowly the next generation of Filipinos will forget the whole Filipino language. .. sad but true :-(
The objective is to facilitate communication. Ovela cannot speak Filipino fluently. We cannot impose on him our language. With the limited time I assume he will be spending in the country, only basic communication skills is required.
The opposite is actually true. Statistics released early in 2018 says Thai high school students are now more proficient in English than new college graduates in the Philippines. You may have noticed that about two decades ago local TV stations started to broadcast foreign films, tv series and animation videos dubbed in Filipino. They did this because the market changed - viewers no longer had a command of conversational English. And so, they had to dub them in Filipino. Kaya nga nosebleed ang tawag natin pag nagpilit tayong mag-English ng medyo mahaba. In fact, some schools and practically all call centers have EOPs (English only policy) enforced inside their premises to counter this downward trend. Dito lang sa comment section na ito makikita mo na mali-mali na ang grammar at spelling ng mga Pinoy kaya minsan di maintindihan ng mga ibang lahi ang eksaktong ibig iparating ng mga nagiiwan ng mensahe o opinyon. Therefore, have no fear, *Jyan Alice*. The Filipino language is not in any danger of being lost in the next generation.
Ovela you nailed it! My hands automaticallyclap when you complete each word! I'm so proud of you! And also being a Filipino! -solid fan from Philippines ❤
I’m literally laughing with my mother when she heard you getting frustrated counting numbers.. 😂😂😂😂😂 She’s not familiar with you.. We’re still laughing.. 😂😂😂
Kumusta Ovela? The first and most important thing you have to learn about the Filipino language is that it only has five vowels. A - like how it is pronounced in Apple E - like how it is pronounced in Egg I - like how it is pronounced in Instant O - like how it is pronounced in Ovela U - like how it is pronounced in Balloon *oo Also, All Filipino Words are pronounced as they are spelled and syllabicated. No silent whatsoever. C is pronounced as K so Cake is said as Keyk. F is pronounced as P so Final is said as Paynal. J is pronounced with DY so Journal is said as Dyornal Q is pronounced as KW so Queen is said as Kwin. V is pronounced as B so Value is said as Balyu. All the other consonants are pronounced the same. Also as mentioned, Filipino words are pronounced Syllabicated. Like Kumusta. It is pronounced in its syllabicated form Ku-mus-ta. You just have to figure out how a word is syllabicated so you can easily pronounce it.
Hi po👋👋, I can really say you are a good teacher! I hope there are more people like you helping other people like Ovela that are interested to learn our our beautiful and unique Pilipino language. Lalo’ng napaka-importante din po ito sa ating mga kabataan na naninirahan sa ibang bansa ng sa ganun ay matuto silang ipagpapatuloy ang pagsasalita ng ating sariling wika. God Bless, po🙏🙏🙏

I was literally rolling after hearing ur reaction with the "Hindi" which means "no". Everything was really funny, but u did great (to answer ur question in the last part of ur video bfore saying gudbye). Just to give u some tips, we dont "usually" say the tagalog terms in numbers. When u go here in the Philippines, it's okay to say them in English. Many of the Filipinos also dont knw how to say most of the numbers (20 above) in filipino. Another, u can just greet everyone in English, say gudbye in english, say excuse me in english because everyone can understand it (maybe few cant but thats not sure). If u say them in tagalog, u'll be appreciated much - just expect laughters from people (the laugh means "awww, so cute"). If u speak in English, just dont forget to say po, to again, sound formal. English words plus po sound nice. Hihihi. Ph loves u and ur channel so much. I didnt notice i finished the whole video. ♥
U didnt notice that u can just say "Ako po si Ovela." instead of saying "Ang pangalan ko ay Ovela.". It's okay. I personally prefer the latter. U sound really nice and cute.
Placing “po” is actually more complicated than it sounds. You have to identify first if the sentence is incomplete or complete, is the sentence in question form? Or in statement form? You also need to locate the pronoun and identify them (first, second and third person). For incomplete sentences, these are categorical answers, “Yes” “No” “None” “Left” “Right” “Straight ahead”. You add the “Po” in the last. Yes = Opo No = hindi po Left = kaliwa po Right =kanan po Straight ahead = deretso po In statement form sentences these are literally statements, “I’m hungry.” “They’re here.” “Po” are added before the pronouns for statement form sentence I’m hungry = Gutom na ko = Gutom na po ako “They’re here” is third person, They’re here = andito na sila = andito na po sila For incomplete and question form sentences, “po” are added after the first pronoun and before for third person “Me?” “Have you eaten?” (Note that the word “kayo” and “sila” are plural and refer to group of people, but in formal filipino we used it to address singular subjects) Me = ako? = ako po? Have you eaten? = kumain na kayo? = kumain na po kayo? Correct me if I’m wrong. 😂😂
Third person plural is used when speaking to elders to show respect. But you can also hear elders using third person pronoun when speaking to younger stranger as a sign of respect. If an elder person doesn't use third person to address strangsr, that is fine. But it is disrespectful for young people to use second person pronoun when speaking to elders.
Just to add: PO is used when addressing someone of higher authority/position in a company (like boss) or place (like owner), even status (which is subjective). The plural forms KAYO/NINYO (YOU, second person) and SILA/NILA (THEY/THEM, depending on sentence construction) may also be used on such a person or a stranger as a sign of respect. "Sino po kayo?" / "Sino po sila?" - May I ask who you are? / May I ask who they are? (The PO and plural forms make all the difference in the tone. Asking such a person "Who are you?" WILL sound rude.) "Ano po ang kailangan ninyo?" / "Ano po ang kailangan nila?" - What can I do for you? / What can I do for them? In addition, let us take note that there are some parts of the country that do not use PO and OPO. Doesn't make them rude, it's just not part of their specific cultures/traditions. They speak respectfully in other ways.
@@akasands "Let us take note that there are some parts of the country that don't use PO and OPO." Yes, that's true. Here in my home, we don't use "PO" but we do *magmano* to elders. 7/11/2020 SAT Morning
Hi Ovela! If you find difficult to pronounce "ikinagagalak", you can use another term, "masaya". Masaya akong makilala ka. It's nice to meet you or I'm happy to meet you. Different words but the same thought.
Wow, I have a big respect to you Ovela for trying to learn how to speak our language. I'm sure more Filipinos will love you more, in tagalog- "sigurado ako maraming Pilipino ang mamahalin ka ng sobra".
Most Filipino words are derived from the Spanish having been a colony of Spain for 333 years. If not for the Philippine-American war that took the lives of many Spanish speaking Filipinos and removal of Spanish language in our highschool and college curriculum, most Filipino would still be speaking Spanish as well as Filipino. Also Filipino in general id derived from Spanish, Malay and Arabic. Filipino is not just Tagalog but also include Cebuano, Illongo and 15 or so dialects.
Incorrect! Most? Only nouns that have been introduced to the archipelago are Spanish rooted. 80-85% of Filipino languages are not Spanish related thank you!
Thankz a lot man for trying your best in learning our language. Using Po and opo is a sign of respect to the one your talking too especially to the elder people.
A for effort!! Good job Ovela for learning our language! once your here in our country people will automatically speak in english whenever there is a foreigner. Hahahah so dont worry! 🤪 Just don’t forget PO/OPO, okayyy? - God bless!!!! 🌻
I appreciate the effort to learn our language. Respect from you, really! But it killed me seeing your reaction from counting to 100 😂 Love your videos!
You'll be a star here in the Philippines Ovela, just be ready hahaha, Filipinos love basketball and someone looking more of basketball superstar isn't gonna escape the mass for sure. Get your selfies-face game on when you come here, Stephen Curry 😂🤗❤
Appreciated Mr.Ovela to know more how to speak filipino language ( tagalog) im very very happy to see more foriegner eager to speak tagalog language,, enteresting po..🥰
ovela, i noticed that you mispronounced the words when you try to read them fast. however, when you try to read slowly you tend to pronounce them correctly. also, most of the filipino words are stressed in the first syllable. example "araw" is pronounced a-raw not araw (with the stress in "raw").
It's KUMusta and NOT KAMusta. It's a common error of most Filipino Citizen here in Philippines. I teach Filipino Subject that's why it is being pronounced by the way the word is spelled.
OMG. Your explanation is not impressive; you lost your credibility. Kumusta is a better tagalised word for como estas than kamusta but kamusta is more popular.
@@aristotleliwag9830OMG. I find your opinion slightly too much. Actually, I am here to express and not to have an impression. Well, It's not my fault if you have that kind of mindset. Sadyang gusto ko lang ibahagi kung ano ang aking nalalaman ukol sa Wikang Filipino. Wala akong nababanaag na anumang kamalian sa kung ano ang binibigkas ng aking labi. Salamat. 😊
Kamusta is just a variation..di dapat ini-invalidate ang pagiging "tama" o pagiging "acceptable" ng ganitong paraan ng pagkabigkas. Accepted ang dalawa. Conversational po ang uri ng Filipino na kailangan nya. Hindi pang major sa isang language teaching class.
Kuya OVELA .. I'm Pilipino from Philippines and I speak five Dialect which is TAGALOG , ENGLISH , KAPAMPANGAN , BISAYA and MARANAO .. please don't give up just focus on learning and you will get it soon
Marvin, you're right. It's KU-MUS-TA NOT KAMUSTA, 'coz kamusta was pronounced by youngsters and old folks in some Tagalog Regions, and many are using it nowadays as Colloquials. Basically it comes from the Spanish words "Como esta". Either pronunciation is accepted. I guess when someone is teaching Tagalog to foreigners it should or must be the Basics, and emphasize the Colloquial equivalents to avoid confusions. For me, I always use Kumusta or Musta, never kamusta. And I never use "F" in Pilipino 'coz it's Spanish spelled, derived from the name of King Felipe of Spain, thus Filipinas, afterall there is no Pilipino or Tagalog Words with letter "F", except of course for our names given by the Spaniards. Just a thought. Salamat, Daghan Salamat, Mabalos, Shukran, Danke, Arigato. LOL!!!
OMG! You're so cute Ovela! And I must say you're a fast learner hahahaha. Thank you for your time learning our language. Your efforts are highly appreciated 😊 As you already know most Filipinos can speak in English so you don't have to worry when you visit Philippines. You'll be fine. I'm a fan of yours and I hope I could meet you in person! ❤
the connector "ng" is changed to m when the next consonant is p or b; we drop the "g" when the next consonant is d,l,r,s,t; otherwise you retain "ng" for the rest of the consonant and vowels.
Ovela!,,you can learn it,i see you getting it....she is teaching you the formal but if you speak the informal way,you can mix n match english n filipino,,its easy,believe me...hats off to you for taking time to learn..mabuhay Ovela!

I - like how it is pronounced in Instant

Also, All Filipino Words are pronounced as they are spelled and syllabicated. No silent whatsoever.
C is pronounced as K so Cake is said as Keyk.
F is pronounced as P so Final is said as Paynal.
J is pronounced with DY so Journal is said as Dyornal
Q is pronounced as KW so Queen is said as Kwin.
V is pronounced as B so Value is said as Balyu.

Placing “po” is actually more complicated than it sounds.
You have to identify first if the sentence is incomplete or complete, is the sentence in question form? Or in statement form? You also need to locate the pronoun and identify them (first, second and third person).
For incomplete sentences, these are categorical answers, “Yes” “No” “None” “Left” “Right” “Straight ahead”. You add the “Po” in the last.
Yes = Opo
No = hindi po
Left = kaliwa po
Right =kanan po
Straight ahead = deretso po
In statement form sentences these are literally statements, “I’m hungry.” “They’re here.”
“Po” are added before the pronouns for statement form sentence
I’m hungry = Gutom na ko = Gutom na po ako
“They’re here” is third person,
They’re here = andito na sila = andito na po sila
For incomplete and question form sentences, “po” are added after the first pronoun and before for third person
“Me?” “Have you eaten?”
(Note that the word “kayo” and “sila” are plural and refer to group of people, but in formal filipino we used it to address singular subjects)
Me = ako? = ako po?
Have you eaten? = kumain na kayo? = kumain na po kayo?
Correct me if I’m wrong. 😂😂
Third person plural is used when speaking to elders to show respect. But you can also hear elders using third person pronoun when speaking to younger stranger as a sign of respect. If an elder person doesn't use third person to address strangsr, that is fine. But it is disrespectful for young people to use second person pronoun when speaking to elders.
pano mo nasabi?
Just to add: PO is used when addressing someone of higher authority/position in a company (like boss) or place (like owner), even status (which is subjective). The plural forms KAYO/NINYO (YOU, second person) and SILA/NILA (THEY/THEM, depending on sentence construction) may also be used on such a person or a stranger as a sign of respect.
"Sino po kayo?" / "Sino po sila?" - May I ask who you are? / May I ask who they are? (The PO and plural forms make all the difference in the tone. Asking such a person "Who are you?" WILL sound rude.)
"Ano po ang kailangan ninyo?" / "Ano po ang kailangan nila?" - What can I do for you? / What can I do for them?

Hi Ovela! If you find difficult to pronounce "ikinagagalak", you can use another term, "masaya". Masaya akong makilala ka. It's nice to meet you or I'm happy to meet you. Different words but the same thought.
Right?? No one uses kinagagalak anymore. It just sounds too formal to be used in everyday conversations.
my respect for u ovela and thank u for giving time learning our language
Watching u learning tagalog is so cute and funny haha. Anw, thank you for loving Philippines. 💖
This is adorable, i already love Ovela. Magandang hapon po!
From Phil. 😍
That's fun. Most filipinos if not all are speaking taglish. I can't even speak straight tagalog without mixing it with english.
Wow, I have a big respect to you Ovela for trying to learn how to speak our language. I'm sure more Filipinos will love you more, in tagalog- "sigurado ako maraming Pilipino ang mamahalin ka ng sobra".
Most Filipino words are derived from the Spanish having been a colony of Spain for 333 years. If not for the Philippine-American war that took the lives of many Spanish speaking Filipinos and removal of Spanish language in our highschool and college curriculum, most Filipino would still be speaking Spanish as well as Filipino. Also Filipino in general id derived from Spanish, Malay and Arabic. Filipino is not just Tagalog but also include Cebuano, Illongo and 15 or so dialects.
Incorrect! Most? Only nouns that have been introduced to the archipelago are Spanish rooted. 80-85% of Filipino languages are not Spanish related thank you!
Thankz a lot man for trying your best in learning our language. Using Po and opo is a sign of respect to the one your talking too especially to the elder people.
Written it's KUMUSTA but when you say it, it could be KUMUSTA (pronounced with U) or KAMUSTA. 😍
I love you Ovela!!! Tnx for showing the Philippines
How cute that your trying to learn pilipino language :) more power guys happy new year

It Great! Thank you po for learning our language, it's pleasure to us as a Filipino, Mabuhay!😊
You'll be a star here in the Philippines Ovela, just be ready hahaha, Filipinos love basketball and someone looking more of basketball superstar isn't gonna escape the mass for sure. Get your selfies-face game on when you come here, Stephen Curry 😂🤗❤
Yes, but for sure music aficionados he is known as a music reactor.
Haha,akala ko ako lang nakapansin,kamukha siya ni Steph Curry😁
Ovelaaaaa, your effort are much appreciated, I salute you so much!
A loyal fan from PH
Thats why taglish is used because Filipino language is longer than English words😊
Your doing good Ovela,congrats and good luck, ilove it
Kumusta and kamusta...👍
I laughed when you say isa sero sero in 100 😂😂
Appreciated Mr.Ovela to know more how to speak filipino language ( tagalog) im very very happy to see more foriegner eager to speak tagalog language,, enteresting po..🥰
Hey mister is that your preparation going to philippine?..hehe.. hmmmmmmm..
Philippines
Ovela i'm a fan. I love watching you trying to learn our native language 😍 THANK YOU!
ovela, i noticed that you mispronounced the words when you try to read them fast. however, when you try to read slowly you tend to pronounce them correctly. also, most of the filipino words are stressed in the first syllable. example "araw" is pronounced a-raw not araw (with the stress in "raw").
One of the reason I watch and still watch your uploaded vids MGN! ❤️
It's KUMusta and NOT KAMusta. It's a common error of most Filipino Citizen here in Philippines. I teach Filipino Subject that's why it is being pronounced by the way the word is spelled.
carlo shing pretty sure both are acceptable.
OMG. Your explanation is not impressive; you lost your credibility. Kumusta is a better tagalised word for como estas than kamusta but kamusta is more popular.
@@aristotleliwag9830OMG. I find your opinion slightly too much. Actually, I am here to express and not to have an impression. Well, It's not my fault if you have that kind of mindset. Sadyang gusto ko lang ibahagi kung ano ang aking nalalaman ukol sa Wikang Filipino. Wala akong nababanaag na anumang kamalian sa kung ano ang binibigkas ng aking labi. Salamat. 😊
True
Kamusta is just a variation..di dapat ini-invalidate ang pagiging "tama" o pagiging "acceptable" ng ganitong paraan ng pagkabigkas. Accepted ang dalawa. Conversational po ang uri ng Filipino na kailangan nya. Hindi pang major sa isang language teaching class.
There's hundreds of other languages out there, but you choose Filipino. You Sir have my respect.
We dont have letter "i" and letter "u"
We pronounce "i" as a hard "e"
And "u" as a hard "o"
You mean oo
Kelan pa to nangyare kuya ? Binago na pala ahahahaha
Yeah. Kapag Tagalog word. Pero pag slang mga english oo
Kuya OVELA .. I'm Pilipino from Philippines and I speak five Dialect which is TAGALOG , ENGLISH , KAPAMPANGAN , BISAYA and MARANAO .. please don't give up just focus on learning and you will get it soon
it's pronounced kUmusta not kAmusta.
marvin ibabao they are both right.
It's just the same actually.
Walang nagsasabi ng KAmusta noon. Ang tagalog words ay nageevolve. Parang "ayaw ko" ngayon nagiging "ayako" na siya.
Marvin, you're right. It's KU-MUS-TA NOT KAMUSTA, 'coz kamusta was pronounced by youngsters and old folks in some Tagalog Regions, and many are using it nowadays as Colloquials. Basically it comes from the Spanish words "Como esta". Either pronunciation is accepted. I guess when someone is teaching Tagalog to foreigners it should or must be the Basics, and emphasize the Colloquial equivalents to avoid confusions. For me, I always use Kumusta or Musta, never kamusta. And I never use "F" in Pilipino 'coz it's Spanish spelled, derived from the name of King Felipe of Spain, thus Filipinas, afterall there is no Pilipino or Tagalog Words with letter "F", except of course for our names given by the Spaniards. Just a thought. Salamat, Daghan Salamat, Mabalos, Shukran, Danke, Arigato. LOL!!!
@ruokyani exactly! Well as ling as wr understand each other, that's fine. But if you are teaching it this way. Nakakabother talaga.
Good job ovela ...thank you for spending your time to learn Filipino language..
Just use English when using numbers, Ovela. In the Philippines, even toddlers count in English.
I disagree. Also, there are advantages in using tagalog counts inside and outside the Philippines.
@@ChummyChime Pakipaliwanag po sa aling bansa advantage na magbilang ng Tagalog at sa papanong paraan siya naging advantage.
@@jemuellen tama
OMG! You're so cute Ovela! And I must say you're a fast learner hahahaha. Thank you for your time learning our language. Your efforts are highly appreciated 😊 As you already know most Filipinos can speak in English so you don't have to worry when you visit Philippines. You'll be fine. I'm a fan of yours and I hope I could meet you in person! ❤
Ovela is having a hard time!
Hahaha!
The fact is... Filipinos can understand English so don't punish yourself memorizing those things!!!
the connector "ng" is changed to m when the next consonant is p or b; we drop the "g" when the next consonant is d,l,r,s,t; otherwise you retain "ng" for the rest of the consonant and vowels.
Its KU not KAmusta.. its wrong miss erika
Mara Ellaso they are both right.
KAmusta is informal. used in the streets
Ovela!,,you can learn it,i see you getting it....she is teaching you the formal but if you speak the informal way,you can mix n match english n filipino,,its easy,believe me...hats off to you for taking time to learn..mabuhay Ovela!
Nice Ovela.. Thank you for your interest in our language. All your Filipino subs will appreciate your effort.
