Making Out in Tagalog is a fun, accessible and thorough Tagalog phase book and guide to the Filipino language as it's really spoken.
Kinagigilwan kita. Makikita pa ba tayo?—(I am fond of you. Shall we meet again?) Answer this correctly in Tagalog and you may be going on a hot date. Incorrectly, and you could be hurting someone's feelings or getting a slap! Tagalog classes and textbooks tend to spend a lot of time rehearsing for the same fictitious scenarios but chances are while in The Philippines you will spend a lot more time trying to make new friends or start new romances—something you may not be prepared for.
If you are a student, businessman or tourist traveling to the Philippines and would like to have an authentic and meaningful experience, the key is being able to speak like a local. This friendly and easy-to-use Tagalog phrasebook makes this possible. Making Out in Tagalog has been carefully designed to act as a guide to modern colloquial Tagalog for use in everyday informal interactions—giving access to the sort of catchy Filipino expressions that aren't covered in traditional language materials. Each expression is given in Tagalog, so that in the case of difficulties the book can be shown to the person the user is trying to communicate with.
