Can you say something in tagalog

[addictedtobooks]

Tagalog is the official language of the Philipines.

Try to guess what this mean?

KUMASTA KANA

[novlist*star*]

i think it means thank you
i hope it is right..
i have a question is it pronounce as English letters?

[Argus]

Does "Kumasta Kana" mean how are you?

I'm pretty sure talamat means thank you.

[addictedtobooks]

Yes, Argus, you got it right. It means How' re you.

Now another word " Maboute" What is the meaning of that?

[novlist*star*]

may be it means no thing ..it is just my trying..

[Sir Bartholomew]

mabuti means OK or fine

ano ba yan... bakit nagtatagalog kayo? hahahaha!

ok it's my turn to ask. what does

"ang baho ng hininga mo." mean?

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe... one proud Filipino, huh? :)
Whoa, you mean Tagalog? Uh-uh! What on earth is that language? How does it sound? I haven't even heard anyone speak it at all!:lol: Kidding.

"Ang baho ng hininga mo."
That means "time to start brushing your teeth 3 times a day, rinsing with mouthwash afterwards" ;)

addictedtobooks--say, you're Pinoy too? Thought I saw you around the Calling All Filipinos thread, though I can't be so sure...
