Filipino Tapestry

Tagalog Language through Culture

Rhodalyne Gallo-Crail

Publication Year: 2012

<DIV><P>An official language of the Philippines, Filipino is based on Tagalog, with elements of Spanish, English, and Chinese mixed in. The result is a rich, expressive language spoken in the Philippines and throughout the far-reaching Filipino diaspora.<BR>&#160;&#160;&#160; <I>Filipino Tapestry</I> offers an innovative approach to learning language by emphasizing the critical intersection of language and culture. It provides activities and exercises that immerse beginning and intermediate students of Filipino in a variety of authentic situations to simulate an in-country experience. Starting with chapters on such topics as family, friends, and home, it then expands the student&rsquo;s world in chapters prompting conversation about food, shopping, parties, and pastimes. Its later chapters push learners to discuss city and country life, cultural traditions, religion, history, and politics.<BR>&#160;&#160;&#160; Features include:<BR>&bull;&#160;&#160;&#160; background chapters on phonology, sentence construction, and common expressions<BR>&bull;&#160;&#160;&#160; photos and cultural notes about chapter themes<BR>&bull;&#160;&#160;&#160; grammar, reading, listening, and speaking exercises<BR>&bull;&#160;&#160;&#160; glossaries of words and additional expressions</P></DIV>
