Mabuhay ka Andez! Maraming Salamat sa mga translations mo!

/whacked.

Big numbers are a bit hard. Nowadays Filipinos usually use English for numbers.

and about this: 1,967,327
It's Isang milyon, siyam na raan at anim na pu't pitong libo, tatlong daan at dalawang pu't pito.

(i was a bit confused myself. lol)

'raan' is the same with 'daan.' we use 'daan' when the last letter of the previous number is 'ng' like 'isang daan' or 'tatlong daan'. and we use 'raan' for na like 'anim na raan'

hope that helps. :)

Hello to you Andez and macymacymacy.^^

macymacymacy, if you don't mind, I would like to make a correction and add something on what you wrote about numbers.^^

1,967,327
--> Isang milyon, siyam na raan at animnapu't pitong libo, tatlong daan at dalawampu't pito

* Raan/daan - hundred
It starts with "r" if the word it follows ends with a vowel. It starts with "d" if the word it follows ends with a consonant.^^

*animnapu is one word. it means 60. animnapu't pito is also animnapu at pito (67)

*dalawampu is one word. it means 20. dalawampu't pito is also dalawampu at pito (27). however, two is dalawa, without an "m"

Ako ay si Andez. - When introducing yourself, you can drop the "ay". Ako si Andez. It's more modern/conversational than "Ako ay si Andez." ^^

Kamusta kana? - It should be Kumusta ka na?, with a "u" not an "a". ka and na are two different words.^^

Ibig ko Chinen. - Do you mean you love Chinen? It should be Mahal ko si Chinen. "Ibig" is an old word and we don't use it anymore in modern conversations.^^ If you mean like, it

Aaah that was long! Hope that helped!^^

And by the way, our language is called Filipino. Tagalog is a dialect.

Cool! You're studying our languange! But i'm gonna warn you! Its pretty hard and cofusing lol! Because for some words.. Their 1st letters can change based on the letter before it. And so on. Haha for numbers.. We barely use tagalog since its so hard. I myself haven't mastered numbers lol.

Goodluck! I could also help you if you have problems on it :)))))
