Click here for more comments: Sample Comments for ESL/EFL Students You were able to deliver your lines smoothly with good accent, sentence stress, and intonation. You have come a long way when it comes to pronouncing words. Just focus on the following sounds as these are your weaknesses: long /a/, long /ey/, long /ou/, and stress.

Ang post na ito ay inaalay ko sa aking mga kaibigang guro ng Filipino at kay Ginoong Makata na inspirasyon ko sa pagtuturo ng sariling wika sa mga kabataan. Madalas naririnig ko sa ibang mga nagtuturo na karamihan satin ngayon kung hindi na nga fluent sa English hindi pa rin fluent sa sarili nating wika sa madaming kadahilanan, dahil sa kultura, impluwensya, teknolohiya, modernisasyon, globalisayon, history ng kolonisasyon at marami pang iba. Mga Batangueño words nuong henerasyon o panahon ng aking Nanay o Lola 1. apuyan – ang tawag ng matatan...
