Taglog Pronunciation Problems So I did my Tagalog practice session again today. I used an online resource and I was reading "Ang Biblia". I'm pretty good with reading and pronouncing most words but I still have problems with certain words. I came across them today and I want to make sure that I'm pronouncing them correctly: siyang (sh-ang?) roo'y (ro-oy?) doo'y (do-oy) siya'y (shy?) Hopefully someone can tell me if this is correct. Salamat po. Annie

Tagalog Pronunciation Problems

So I did my Tagalog practice session again today. I used an online resource and I was reading "Ang Biblia". I'm pretty good with reading and pronouncing most words but I still have problems with certain words. I came across them today and I want to make sure that I'm pronouncing them correctly:

siyang (sh-ang) or (see-yang)
roo'y (ro-oy)
doo'y (do-oy)
siya'y (sh-ay) or (see-yay)

Hopefully someone can tell me if this is correct. Salamat po.

siyang (see-yang) or (shang) as a shortcut pronunciation roo'y (ro-oy) doo'y---- "do" as in the pronunciation of notes in "do re mi fa so la ti do" same as "ro" siya'y (see-yay). You would not get the pronunciation correctly if you don't hear it from tagalog speaker because it have some differences from English.
