    Does anyone speak TAGALOG!
    I am fluent in tagalog and now that I'm back here in america, there is no one around that I can speak it with. I just want some simple conversation to keep it up.

    Boy I don't get out much. I have never heard of Tagalog. What language is it close to? Is it easy to learn? Where is Cebu? Never heard of that either.

    Tagalog is one of the major languages of the Republic of the Philippines, but Tagalog is also spoken in other parts of the world. Cebu is an Island in the Philippines.;)

    Philippines is composed of about 7100 islands though not all are inhabited because some are too small. Each island have their own dialect but everybody is taught (in school) to speak the national language which is Tagalog, which is the dialect of the people at the northern part of the Philippines. Our currency is called "Peso", the exchange rate right now is 53.00 Pesos to $1.00. I will be going back there to visit some time in May, anybody wants to go? :)

    Taga Naga Cebu ako. Nag-aaral din ako, sa gabi nga lang, may trabaho kasi ako sa araw. Bago ako dito sa website na ito, nagustuhan ko talaga dito.
    Ingat ka rin. (To my English speaking friends, I said: I am from Naga Cebu. I am going to school too, only at night, because I have a day job. I am new to this site, I really like it here. Take care of yourself too) :)

    Di ako nagbebenta pero suggestion ko lang. Kung me kamag anak kayo sa Pilipinas o kayo me kamag anak sa US, bili lang kayo magicjack... Mabibili siya online. $30 lang. Basta me internet kang mabilis naku unlimited calling na siya sa US for 1 yr. Ung device pati magkakaroon ng US number kaya ung taga US pwede ka tawagan ng hindi international rate and charge,kaw mamimili ng area code. Winner talaga!
