POST CONVERSATION BANTER |
Eric: In this lesson’s dialogue we’re going to the mall. |
Camille: Yeah, Jean and Hannah are going to meet up with friends. |
Eric: From what we’ve said in previous lessons, it seems like the Philippines is a very social place. |
Camille: That’s right. Just don’t expect your friends to be on time... |
Eric: What do you mean? |
Camille: Well, people in the Philippines are not particularly strict on time. We call this “Filipino Time”. |
Eric: Really? It’s so common that there’s a phrase for it? |
Camille: Yeah. I think it's mostly because there is always heavy traffic, so people tend to expect others to be late. So don’t be angry if your Filipino friends are late. |
Eric: They’re just on Filipino Time. |
Camille: Right. Even events sometimes start late. |
Eric: I’ll keep that in mind! Where do friends usually meet? |
Camille: It’s often at the mall, like in the dialogue. |
Eric: Okay, now onto the vocab. |

KEY VOCAB AND PHRASES |
Eric: Let's have a closer look at the usage of some of the words and phrases from this lesson. The first phrase is.. |
Camille: sabay tayo |
Eric: meaning "go together" |
Eric: What can you tell us about this phrase? |
Camille: There are two words. The first word is sabay meaning “simultaneously” or “at the same time”. |
Eric: And the second word? |
Camille: It’s the pronoun tayo, meaning “we”. |
Eric: So together they mean “go together”. |
Camille: That’s right. We can use this phrase when we want to say to someone that we want to go somewhere together or do something together. |
Eric: Can you give us an example using this phrase? |
Camille: Sure. For example, you can say.. Sabay tayo mamayang bumili ng pagkain. |
Eric: ..which means "Let's buy food together later. " Okay, what's the next word? |
Camille: mag-antay |
Eric: meaning "to wait" |
Eric: What can you tell us about this? |
Camille: This is a verb that means “to wait”. It’s a casual version of the verb maghintay. You know how people tend to be lazy with words and cut some letters, right? |
Eric: Right. So how do we conjugate it? |
Camille: The past tense is nag-antay and the future tense is mag-aantay. |
Eric: Ok. Can it be used in both formal and informal situations? |
Camille: Yes, and it can be even more casual, if you change it to ng maghintay. |
Eric: Can you give us an example using this word? |
Camille: Sure. For example, you can say.. Hindi ko gustong mag-antay sa ibang tao. |
Eric: .. which means "I don't want to wait for other people. " Okay, now onto the lesson focus. |
Lesson focus
|
Eric: In this lesson, you'll learn how to give warnings and cautions. |
Eric:The dialogue in this lesson opened with Jean warning Hannah. |
Camille: Yes, it’s important to be able to give warnings, and probably more important to understand them. |
Eric: Definitely. So let’s look at some of the warnings and cautions we might hear. Let’s begin with warnings we’ll give to other people. |
Camille: There are a few ways to say “That’s dangerous”. You can say delikado iyan, mapanganib iyan, or peligroso iyan. |
Eric: How do I say “it’s dangerous here”? |
Camille: Mapanganib dito. Or Hindi ligtas dito is “It’s not safe here.” |
Eric: Now, how about some less serious warnings, maybe more general things? I think that a nice thing to say to people is “take care”. |
Camille: That is ingat. Or we can say alagaan mo ang sarili mo. |
Eric: What does that mean? |
Camille: “Take care of yourself”. |
Eric: How about “be careful”? |
Camille: If you’re saying it to one person, you can say Mag-ingat ka. Or, to several people Mag-ingat kayo. |
Eric: In that example, the pronoun changed depending on whether it was one person or several people. So, let’s look at pronouns a little. |
Camille: Most Filipino pronouns are gender neutral, so we don’t have different ones for males and females. |
Eric: That’s good, it means less to remember! |
Camille: Right! In Filipino, first person singular, or “I” is ako. The second person singular, “you” is ikaw. |
Eric: How about “he” and “she?” Is that the same word? |
Camille: Yes, it is. We can use siya for both “he” and “she”. |
Eric: How about some plural pronouns? What is “we”? |
Camille: Ah, there are several for “we.” Tayo, kami and namin. |
Eric: Why so many? |
Camille: We use tayo when the speaker is referring to a group that includes the speaker and the person they are talking to. Kami is used to refer to a group including the speaker, but not the person they are talking to. |
Eric: Right, got it. Possessive pronouns are also important. How do we say something is “mine” or “hers”? |
Camille: The pronoun for “mine” is akin. For “his” or “hers” we can use either kanya or niya. For example, Kanya ba ito. meaning “Is this hers?” |
Eric: Listeners, there are many different pronouns, so be sure to check them all out in the lesson notes! |
Outro
|
Eric: Okay, that’s all for this lesson. Thank you for listening, everyone, and we’ll see you next time! Bye! |
Camille: Hanggang sa muli! |
