Tagalog Lesson 101: Looking for Places

Learn to Speak Tagalog

The rise of Taglish, a new Filipino language based on combining Tagalog and English words, is impacting the Filipino society. Because it is neither English or Tagalog, it makes formal communication difficult. The purpose of this video series is to contribute toward strengthening the teaching of the formal and decent contemporary Tagalog language by presenting it in the context of respected Filipino custom and tradition.

@cren28 Agreed. It is normally called the CR.

[cren28]

also instead of "saan ang parmasya?" we say "saan ang botika?" i dont mean to be a know-it-all though.

in the philippines we dont usually use the term kubeta for the restroom its a bit colloquial. when we are looking for the restroom we usually say. "Saan yung CR?" CR means comfort room. kubeta is a bit outdated.
