| POST |
| Eric: Listen again to Ana's post. |
| Camille: Pagod! Grabe ang araw na to! |
| Eric: "Tired! This day is just too much!" |
| Camille: (SLOW) Pagod! Grabe ang araw na to! (Regular) Pagod! Grabe ang araw na to! |
| Eric: Let's break this down. First is a word meaning "tired." |
| Camille: pagod |
| Eric: Express that you are tired or exhausted from doing something with this word. Listen again- "tired" is... |
| Camille: (SLOW) pagod (REGULAR) pagod |
| Eric: Then comes the phrase - "this day is just too much." |
| Camille: grabe ang araw na to |
| Eric: You can often say that this day is too much when you especially felt too exhausted as compared to the other normal days. Filipinos often get tired from work when they do overtime or get stuck in traffic on the way home. Traffic in the city gets worse especially on rainy days and many people have trouble getting their ride home and have to wait in line at jeepney and taxi stands for several minutes. Listen again- "this day is just too much" is... |
| Camille: (SLOW) grabe ang araw na to (REGULAR) grabe ang araw na to |
| Eric: All together, "Tired! This day is just too much!" |
| Camille: Pagod! Grabe ang araw na to! |
