Miro 4 telenovelas mexicanas cada noche.:eek: Mucha de la gente en este foro dice que no le gustan las telenovelas en español. Así que me alegro muchisimo de que en las Filipinas les gusten las telenovelas mexicanas. Y estoy feliz también de que te guste mas el español que el inglés.:D |

tagaloa and spanish
hi there,
Native speakers of spanish in my opinion could find it easier to learn tagalog. tagalog has many adopted words and expressions from spanish. consider the folllowing: kumusta- from como estas pasyal- from pasear kalye- calle tindahan- tienda palengke- palenque ( this is mexican actually) mesa- table, la mesa silya- silla kutsara, tinedor, kutsilyo, abrelata- cuchara, tenedor, abrelatas kuripas-corrida pinta- pintar pintura- pintura antemano- this means immediately, but in spanish it means beforehand mano-mano- to do accomplish something by hand in contrast to doing with machines or tools ayre- aire sepo- beam biga- viga kapatas- capataz anilyo- anillo namamasyal sa kalye- paseando en la calle baseho- vacio- in tagalog baseho refers to empty bottles of liquor, bear, etc banyo- baño barko- barco sapatos- zapatos all the days of the week is the same in tagalog as in spanish except domingo which is Linggo in tagalog. mas- mas ( the comparative word mas is the same in tagalog kutis- cutis lengua- is a barbecue made from the tongue of a pig. korte- court demandado- defendant demandante- plaintiff akusado- accused prisonero- same as in spanish boto- voto botelya- botella plato- plato asukal- azucar AND MANY MORE. |

indeed. tagalog contains words adapted from spanish. it was only 60 years ago that tagalog was officially declared as a national language. prior to that, the official languages were spanish and english. at present, in a casual conversation, one often hears filipinos speaking their native language blended with spanish and english.

it sounds a languange interesting.
the words up sounds easy when you know spanish, I guess you can learn Tagalog fast if you know spanish o.o. while I saw a Filipino film and language seemed to me strange, but I think if you put more attention notary certain similarities. When I saw a friend words we listened and we said, you can not mean what we think and we put more attention to the subtitles |

On the contrary, I really helps me make corrections and I can read English better structured.:)
thank you very much.:D |
Yes. You are right. there are many loan words in Pilipino from Spanish.
|
not the same. Although you could be understood if you use spanish. One, two, three, four, is isa, dalawa , tatlo, apat, uno, dos tres, kwatro , may be used also but in formal tagalog, most spanish words are intentionally avoided if posible. In some instances where spanish may be used instead of the native tagalog for brevity. for examplw the number, 1500 in tagalog is "isang libo at limang daan" this is too long, one may instead use "mil kinyentos" ( mil quinientos) .

The use of numbers as in spanish is common to Filipinos ,although we also have our own expressions for numbers.

Spanish has influenced tagalog not only by adding Spanish words to the Tagalog vocabulary but also in Tagalog grammar. The comparative form of adjectives and adverbs are employed bu using the Spanish "mas" before the adjective or adverb.
Example: 1. Gwapo si Pedro. - Pedro is handsome. 2. Pero mas gwapo is Luigi sa kanya. - But Luigi is more handsome than him. Mas gwapo raw si Jose kay Luigi. - They say Jose is more handsome than Luigi. 3. Pero si Luigi pa rin ang pinakagwapo, sabi ng nanay niya. - But Luigi is still the most handsome, according to his mom. *Note that the prefix "pinaka-" was added to the adjective to make it in the superlative degree. |
