I know someone that speaks that language but it seems really hard.

I would like to learn it, like any other language (besides Spanish)

Translation in Tagalog:

Mayroon akong kakilala na makakausap mo sa ganoong lengwahe pero mukhang mahirap.

Gusto kong matutunan, gaya lang nang ibang lenguwahe (maliban sa Espanol)

When somebody says that to you, you reply:

Katorse anyos lang ako. (I am only 14 years old]

Bata pa ako. [I am still young]

Who - Sino

Where- saan

what- ano

Sino ang tatay mo? [Who is your father?]

Saan ka nakatira? [Where do you live?]

Ano ang pangalan mo? [What is your name?]

Note: pronounciation is the same in english except that "ng[a], [i], [o]. is pronounced '[n]gun' but silent 'g'

kain- eat

present tense-kumakain
past tense-kumain
future-kakain
past perfect- kumakain
nno conditional, subjunctive tenses. Use the tense in any of those situations.

I will eat if Dad asks me to. - Kakain (future)ako kapag sinabi (asks)ni Tatay.

Tagalog is the hardest language to study. But I know of one Russian linguist who became fluent by enrolling in Philippine university.
