Me, i'm from Indonesia & i'm learning Tagalog now.. i have some friends from Philippines.. that's why i'm interested to learn Tagalog, even i have a plan to go to Davao City to meet them, i wish when i go there i can speak Tagalog well.. but ofcourse i must prepare the money first, maybe next year.. ^^, actually i loves to learn others languages (like English, Nihon go, Han gul, etc.), but this time i think i want to focus on Tagalog.. so, i hope i can learn more via italki.. and i'm a beginner, hehe, so correct me if i wrong.. ^^, sorry if my English not yet good, hehe.. but i would like if you correct me.. thanks, God bless~

    [Tagalog] translation word by word? hello~ :D i found that Tagalog phrase sometimes can't be translated word by word, is that true? i mean, it could be different meaning if i separate it.. for example "mahal na mahal kita".. "mahal" means "expensive", but when it comes to "mahal na mahal kita" then it means "i really love you".. for a beginner, i must memorize the vocabulary or the words first? it's interesting when i found that some words has the same writings & meanings in Bahasa Indonesia, like mahal (expensive), lima (five), kanan (right) :D even some words also similar in vernacular language here, like anim (enam in Bahasa & Javanese, means six), pito (pitu in Javanese, means seven), ako (aku in Bahasa, means i).. :p maraming salamat.. : ) CMIIW : )
