(that you can't pronounce the words) If you understand you should be able to try and speak back to them. Imitate the sounds and whatnot. I'm in the same situation as you (except Vietnamese) and I can speak Vietnamese because I hear it all the time. Take classes if you're struggling. But the best way to learn is from your family and speaking with them. How is that even possible?

Good Luck, Suwerte!

Try going to this website: http://www.tagaloglang.com/ But since your entire family speaks Tagalog, you may want to practice your Tagalog with them. Tell them that they're only supposed to talk to you in Tagalog and you have to answer in Tagalog, too. Kaya mo 'yan!
