I want to learn tagalog and vietnamese and was wondering wht was the best way to learn either?

I've searched yahoo answers about rosetta stone and a lot of people say that the best way to learn Tagalog or any foreign language is by actually visiting said country and conversing with them. I've lived in the Philippines for almost 3 years (2 years of high school there and 2 semesters of college) but unfortunately, I was never able to speak Tagalog nor the language spoken most at the province I stayed at,which is Ilocano. I barely know the basics. I might be going there again sometime next year or 2013 for a few years and I really want to learn Tagalog or Ilocano by then. Is Rosetta Stone a good way to go? Or what other options are there? I've seen the prices for Rosetta Stone and they are pretty expensive. Can someone suggest others that I could possibly look in to?

My mom translated it to: Kung may madilim na kahapon may magandang kinabukasan. I trust my moms translation but I just want to see if that's the closest translation to the actual quote. I also wanted to get it written in the tagalog script but I noticed some letters aren't in the alphabet so I don't know if it could be translated. Thanks

My Lolas just came here to the states and I would like to get to know them better and I sometimes have trouble speaking with them because I can only understand but it's hard for me to speak. So if anyone out there could IM or message me, I would greatly appreciate the help. OH! BTW, I'm 13 so the translations won't be that hard, just simple things. (:

How to pronounce "konti lang" (Just a little)

Filipinos, in the day to day life of the Philippines, is it realistic to say that the citizens speak English with each other?

You must know the alphabet and at least, a 1000 words from those languages (including nouns, adjectives, pronouns and etc.). Not including dialects or sub-languages. You must also speak it fluently and flawlessly. You must also know how to spell the words and pronounciation, grammar counts, too.

I know two, Tagalog and English. Go Filipinos!
What is your nationality?

I have an English language gaming website that has become popular in the Philippines. Google says a lot of people that speak Tagalog are searching my site. Is it worth it for me to pay someone to do translation of my content or do most people in the Philippines speak enough English that it doesn't matter?

I need to write this sentence in tagalog in my story. so please help
btw by kiddies, i mean kids

Well, I've been in America for about 4 years now and I'm afraid I'm losing my ability to speak both ilocano and tagalog. I try to speak it at home but then I forget to. D= I'd like to email with someone (I do have AIM but I always forget to go on even though I have to) and keep up with my language. Tagalog used to be my first language and ilocano (which I don't remember how I learned it) my second. Now English moved up to first. O.o
So if someone does speak ilocano or tagalog I would be more than happy to talk to you.

In other words, their relationship is cordial. Also, Japan has invested heavily in the Philippines and the Philippine government sent people to Japan to help during the tsunami emergency. Filipinos also travel to Japan to work. My question is how does the average Japanese see Filipinos? I've read conflicting stories about the issue.

To clarify, I am a white male, and have dated nothing but Asian women since I started pursuing girls in high school. If beauty in in the eye of the beholder, then my reason is this: I find the almond eyes, the facial features, and body types appealing. In Filipino women I find the darker skin very sexy. But my attraction is not superficially skin deep. I can speak Tagalog fluently as well as Japanese, and just because they might be Asian, thats not reason enough for me to jump on the first one I see. I value the cultural background & personality as most important. So if I'm attracted to features that just so happen to fall under the race category would It still be considered being racist? Curious on your thoughts.

I get most of it but I dont understand the text speak....

"thanks na lang sa concern, I'm happy and contented. Sana nkpg moved on kna!"

Thank you in advance!

What does this Filipino phrase mean: "kaluguran daka din sobra."

Thanks for any help.

Because Tagalog is my parent's language and I understand it, but can't speak well. I want to know if I should continue trying to be able to speak fluently, or if I should move on to Spanish or something.

I just wanna know if they do because my friend and I likes Asian girls and we'd like to go somewhere in Asia but we only speak English and very little Spanish.. Very little. By the way, we're white so do Filipinas or Asian girls in general like white boys? I seen that in The Philippines that Filipino and English were their main languages but I could actually go there only speaking English and be able to get through the country well, right?

Can somebody translate these 2 sentences for me please ?

person 1: kanino ka in love?
person 2: awan pay a...
person 1: sino si rachel?? jeje
