ILOKANO FAMILIARIZATION COURSE

INTRODUCTION

REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES

Geography

The Republic of the Philippines lies north of the equator, at approximately the 25th degree of latitude. It is composed of 7,107 islands, comprising a total area of 296,912 square kilometers, approximately the size of the state of Arizona only the islands are spread over a larger territory. It is bounded by the China Sea to the west, the Pacific Ocean to the east, the Celebes Sea to the south, and the

Balintang Channel to the north. The Philippines’ largest cities are Manila, Quezon City, Davao, and Cebu. 1

The Philippines can be roughly divided into three main islands: Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao. Luzon is the largest and most populous island in the archipelago. Metro Manila, which is home to over ten million Filipinos, is located there. With its strategic marine location, Manila contains one of the best harbors in the Philippines and is considered the most logical location for the national government and the center of commerce. Quezon City is the capital of the Philippines and Baguio City is the officially designated summer capital. One of the largest and most contemporary city networks in Asia, Metro Manila contains ten cities: Coloocan, Las Pinas, Makati, Malabon, Manila, Muntinlupa, Paranaque, Pasay, Quezon, and San Juan. Mountain ranges separate provinces both inland and along the coasts. The Cordillera mountain ranges run through Luzon, demonstrating sharp contrast with the green foothills and coastal plains. Many islands are mountainous and there is potential for volcanic and earthquake activity throughout the country. In 1991, Mt. Pinatubo, dormant for 600 years, erupted violently and buried entire villages, destroyed agricultural lands and schools, and almost completely covered U.S. Clark Air Base with lava and ash. Global weather patterns were affected by this eruption throughout 1993. The Philippines has one of the worst killer volcanoes in the world, the Taal Volcano. Geologists call this volcano “Small but Terrible” because it has already killed thousands of inhabitants. The Philippines is included in the Pacific Ring of Fire. In fact, the Philippines has more than 200 volcanoes although only 21 are still considered active.

Climate

The Philippines’ climate is composed of a rainy season and a dry season. The rainy season spans from June through October. Strong winds from the Pacific Ocean and the China Sea bring heavy rain to the country almost daily which can cause severe flooding. The strongest rains occur in the central and western parts of the country. Rainy season is also known as typhoon season bringing as many as 15 typhoons to the country each year. Typhoons, usually originating out of the Pacific

Ocean, contain destructive winds and torrential rains. As typhoons make landfall and move across the country, they can destroy crops and sink boats. Starting in either December or January, skies usually become clear and the dry season begins. Temperatures become extremely hot, usually by April or May, and the people become anxious again for rain. Mindanao is the only island in the country that has even rainfall throughout the year. The lowlands are consistently hot and humid throughout the year. In contrast, the mountains can be quite cool, particularly at night. Population

The Philippines has a population of over 80 million people. Its population growth rate has been estimated at 2.71 per annum, the highest growth rate in Asia. The population can be divided into three religious groups: Christians, Muslims, and indigenous Animists. Over 90 percent of the population is Christian, the majority of which are farmers and fishermen. The Tagalogs are a group who live in southern and central Luzon. Visayan speaking groups predominate in the Central Philippines. Migrants from Luzon and the Visayas have established settlements in Mindanao. Muslim Filipinos sometimes called Moros, live in Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago. Other Muslims such as

the Tausog, Samal, Maguindanao, and the Maranao live either by the sea or on the flood plains. The indigenous Animists inhabit the less accessible parts of the country and are made up of several groups. There are the sturdy groups of the Cordillera Mountains, such as the Ifugao and Kalinga; the reserved group called Aeta, who live in the mountains and seaside caves; and the T’boli, who live in the Mindanao fields; the Mangyan from Mindoro.

Apart from the indigenous people, very few Filipinos can claim pure ethnic descent. Most have inherited Chinese, Indian, Spanish, and Japanese genes from their ancestors. Intermarriages are common, and the offspring of these marriages are called mestizos. The Philippines has a rich cultural heritage. Although Philippine culture displays an Asian character, it also reveals a strikingly western appearance. A high percentage of Filipinos speak English, embrace Christianity, and vote for a democratic government. They are naturally friendly, hospitable, and

united despite their diverse origins from 77 ethno-linguistic groups. Government The Republic of the Philippines has 76 provinces, which are divided into municipalities. The central government is led by the president. Congress consists of a 200-seat House of Representatives and a 24-seat Senate. Most government offices are in Quezon City, the capital named after Manuel Quezon, the first president of the country when it became a U.S. commonwealth in 1935. The voting age is 15 for local elections and 18 for national elections. There are two major political parties, the Liberal and the Nationalista. Economy The Philippines’ economy is based on agriculture, which employs 45 percent of the labor force and accounts for about one-third of all exports. The most important crops include rice, corn, coconut, sugar cane, abaca, and tobacco. In addition to agricultural products, the country exports electronics, clothing, minerals, and chemicals. Despite problems, the economy began to show strong growth by 1994. Tax and investment reforms are attracting investment. The currency is the Philippine peso (P). Even with literacy at 94.6 percent, the country is unable to sustain steady economic growth and cannot generate enough jobs. History

The Republic of the Philippines was not the nation as we know today for most of its history. The Philippines’ history is the story of the gradual blending of the original island people merging their way of life with foreign people and ideas that arrived on their soil. Chinese merchants linked the islanders into a broader network of people and introduced more intricate ways of doing business. Arabs introduced the islanders to the Muslim religion during the 14th century. Spanish explorers colonized, converted, and brought

Catholicism to the Philippines over four centuries ago. In 1898, as a defeat in the Spanish-American War, Spain ceded control of the Philippines to the U.S. The Philippine-American war followed shortly as the Filipinos fought desperately for their independence. This bloody war lasted for two years. The Americans changed the Philippines and extended colonialism for over 40 years, but introduced constitutional democracy.

The Commonwealth of the Philippines, under Filipino President Manuel L. Quezon, was established in 1935. On December 8, 1941, Japan bombed Manila and World War II came to the Islands. A subsequent Japanese occupation proved to be very harsh. In October 1944, General Douglas MacArthur liberated the Philippines from Japanese rule. The Philippines gained independence on July 4, 1946. Manuel Roxas was the first President. Following independence, the Philippine relationship with the United States remained complex. Many citizens wanted the Philippines to be a state of the United States, but others felt that the U.S. already dominated too much in the country. Independence has been difficult but the state of the current republic is etched with courage, heroism, persistence, and patience. The outcome is the modern Republic of the Philippines and the proud people that we see today. Religion The Filipinos have embraced two of the great religions of the world – Islam and Christianity.

Islam was introduced during the 14th century, shortly after the expansion of Arab commercial ventures in Southeast Asia. Foreigners who intend to go to the southern region of the Philippines should realize that they are in the Muslim region of the country. The Spaniards introduced Christianity in 1521. Since then, the country has been predominately Catholic. The Protestant religion has existed in the country since 1899. Locally, two Filipino independent churches were organized at the turn of the 20th century. These are the Aglipayans and the Iglesia ni Cristo. Recently, the Aglipayans signed a covenant with the Anglican Church as one. The Iglesia ni Cristo has expanded its membership considerably. In fact, the Iglesia ni Cristo Church with its towering architecture, is a

prodigious sight in most major cities, towns, and provincial capitals of the country. Customs Folk Customs In general, the Filipinos are a cordial people. Westerners may prefer to get straight to the point, but Filipinos enjoy small talk and refreshments prior to getting down to business. Establishing personal relationships and the right atmosphere for negotiations is important. Filipinos generally seek group consensus in making any final decisions, with the biggest influence coming from older generation. People place a lot of value in their self-esteem or amor propio, and get intimidated when criticized in front of other people. The preferred way to deal with people is to point out their mistakes in private and close cheerfully by inquiring about the family.

Marriage Individual Filipinos choose their marriage partners, but with family approval. The first step to a wedding is a formal proposal initiated by a go-between, a mutual relative of both families. A party is usually held to which relatives, sponsors, and a few friends are invited. Traditionally, the groom’s family shoulders the wedding expenses. The wedding is conducted in a church, and a reception immediately follows. The first music piece is meant for the bride and groom, and relatives of both parties pin peso notes on the couple. The paper notes pinned on the outfits of the bride and groom are eventually collected and added to wedding gifts, to signal the beginning of married life. Marriage is viewed as a permanent contract – an inviolable social institution. Birth Birth is normally a much-awaited event in the family as they speculate on the baby’s gender and name. Uncles, aunts, and parents all help to derive a baby’s name. Most women in rural areas give birth at home aided by a midwife. The first religious ritual for the baby born into a Catholic family is baptism. Sponsors are contacted as godparents who become counselors and take over the upbringing of the child should parents lose their ability to do so. The parents will raise the baby with love and tender care. Emotional support and affectionate touching are abundant as the child grows. Dating and Courtship A well-bred young lady from the city may show disinterest when a man woos her with flowers and chocolates and may even ignore him to test his sincerity. In the province, a young man may serenade a young woman by singing beneath a window on a moonlit night. When everything is right between the man and woman and they decide they are ready, they will tell their family and friends about their romance and begin a courtship. Courting a young lady is to court her family as well. Modern romance allows solo dating, but a young lady may bring a chaperone to dinner or dance dates. Premarital sex is not acceptable during the period of courtship and both parties are expected to behave well in public. Music Music is an important part of everyday life in the Philippines. Filipinos sing in the bathroom, the kitchen, in work areas, and even while stuck in traffic.Children learn to play the guitar, piano, violin or other musical instruments at an early age.Contemporary music may sound western, yet it remains Filipino at heart in its romantic tunes, sentimentality, or mellow mood.

Family The family is the basic social institution and is made up of a father, a mother, children, and the relatives of the father and the mother. The family values shared by all Filipinos bridge their many differences. Maintaining close family ties is the foundation to the values of the culture. Loyalty is a highly placed, fundamental value. Authority within the family is vested not only in the father and mother, but grandparents as well. The father takes care of the financial needs of the family, while the mother takes care of the children, plans the meals, and organizes the chores of each family member. TRANSPORTATION AND COMMUNICATION Many middle class Filipinos own cars, but others rely on public transportation. Metro Manila has numerous buses, taxis, and jeepneys. A jeepney is a highly decorated type of mini-bus built on the frame of old U.S. military jeeps. They travel on relatively fixed routes and stop when waved at or atop at the sidewalk. They carry 10-20 passengers for a fare. Passengers tap or pound on the roof when they want to stop. Traffic is heavy and driving habits are aggressive. Rural roads are poorly paved or undeveloped and often rely on a motorcycle version of the jeepney. Travel by foot, bicycle, motorcycle, and on animals is also common. A domestic airline, ferries and boats provide inter-island transportation. Although communications infrastructure is generally good, services to rural regions and between islands are not very extensive. Middle-class homes usually have phones or cellular phones if service is available in the areas. EDUCATION Education is highly valued in the Philippines. Young children can attend kindergarten at age five and preschool before that. Nearly all children spend six years in the elementary school. A few schools have a seventh year of elementary education. There are no middle schools and usually after the 6th grade, 4 years of high school follow. Graduation is typically at age 16-17. After high school, many go on to college or vocational training. Government usually does not provide financial aid or any educational grants. Parents sacrifice their farms or other assets just to send their children to college. After finishing a career, they expect their older child to be employed to help the next child’s educational expenses and so on. These efforts result in national literacy rate of 94 percent.

HEALTH Medical service in Manila is generally good. Rural areas have a health unit but it may lack supplies. In 1995, a new law established a universal health insurance paid for mostly on the basis of taxation and other government funds. Before, insurance was difficult to afford and unemployed people and tenant farmers had health insurance problems. A person needing surgery needed a down payment before an operation would begin, especially in privately owned hospitals. Government sponsors free vaccinations for children.

Dr. Jose Rizal is the greatest hero of the Philippines. He was born in Calamba, Laguna on June 19, 1861. He studied medicine at the University of Santo Tomas and pursued studies at various universities in Europe. It was while in Europe that he wrote two novels, “Noli Me Tangere” and “El Filibusterismo”. These novels exposed the cruelties of Spaniards against the Filipinos. The Spaniards accused Jose Rizal of inciting rebellion against Spanish rulers. He was imprisoned as a result of these accusations and was killed by firing squad at Bagumbayan Field on December 30, 1896.

Apolinario Mabini Apolinario Mabini was named “The Brain of the Revolution” because he helped frame the Malolos Constitution.

Notes on Introductions: Ilokanos are very aware of age and status in their interactions with people. For this reason, when addressing unfamiliar people, they are likely to use quasi-kin terms that express this relationship. When calling a waiter or waitress, you might have to guess the approximate age and compare it with that of yourself, and call out Manang and Manong for older women and men or Ading for younger women or men to get their attention. The following are terms of address used throughout the Kailokuan. Kumusta ka balasangko? How are you my young lady? Dios ti agngina, Apo. Thanks, sir/ma’am. Manang! Kayatmi pay ti beer. Older sister! We want more beer. Mayat met barok. It’s nice indeed, my young man. The terms nana, tata, lolo and lola are often used with first names to address older people with respect. It is meant to address one or more generations above the speaker. “Tata” is an Ilocano term addressed to older males and is equivalent to father or dad. “Nana,” on the other hand, is for older women and is normally used for one’s mother or mom. The terms “Lolo” and “Lola” are used to address a grandfather and a grandmother respectively. Male addresses end with a vowel “o;” female addresses end with a vowel “a.”

Examples:

Kumusta, Nana Marga. Hello, Nana Carmen. Ayanna ni Lolo Ipe? Where is Grandfather Ipe? Agannad kayo, Tata Luming. Be careful, Tata Luming.

Lesson 2 Pagnanaedan ken Pagtratrabahuan

Living and Working

This lesson will introduce you to: - Typical housing arrangements in the Philippines - Using “or” in questions about living arrangements and professions - The verb “to have” in the present tense

- Names of professions (singular and plural forms).

1. Look at the pictures below and listen to the words. Repeat the words after the speaker.

apartment

Pagtaengan

apartment building

Patakder nga Pagtaengan

room Siled

house Balay

military camp

Kampo Militaria

3. Read the following sentences and translate them into English.

1. Agnanaed ni John ti tolda inta Kampo Militaria. 2. Agnanaed ni Senora Smith inta bassit a pagtaengan. 3. Agnanaed da Peter ken Linda inti dackel a balay idiay Manila. 4. Agnanaed ni Tim inti otel. 5. Agnanaed da Scott ken Mike idiay kuartel. 6. Agnanaedak ken Bob inta balaymi.

Grammar Notes: 1. The Ilokano word “agnaed” is equivalent to the verb “to live” in the infinitive form. The verb prefix “ag” is added to the root word “naed” (which means “life”) to form the verb “to live.” Duplicating the first syllable of the root word “naed” with the prefix “ag” will result in a new word, “agnanaed,” in the simple present form. 2. Prepositions used in context in the statements above are as follows: a. at the (Military Camp) - inta (Kampo Militaria) b. in a (big house) - inti (dackel a balay) c. in (Manila) - idiay (Manila)

4. Listen to the following dialogues and repeat after the speaker. Follow along in your workbook. Then, make up similar dialogues. Work in pairs or in small groups. 1. A. I live in a big house. Where do you live?

Agnanaedak inti dackel a balay. Sadinno ti pagnanaedam?

B. I live in a tent in a military camp.

Tolda ti pagnanaedak inti Campo Militaria.

2. A. Bob lives in the hotel. Where does Ann live?

Agnanaed ni Bob inti otel. Sadinno ti pagnanaedan ni Ann?

B. Ann lives in an apartment building.

Agnanaed ni Ann inti patakder nga pagtaengan.

3. A. We live in the barracks. Where do Bob and Ann live?

Agnanaed kami inta kuartel. Sadinno ti pagnanaedan da Bob ken Ann?

B. They live in the military camp.

Agnanaeda inta Campo Militaria.

A conjunction (Pinagsilpuan) is used to connect a word or group of words in a sentence. The word “wenno” is used in Ilokano conversation to emphasize something important. It is equivalent to the conjunction “or” in English. 5A. Read the following dialogues and translate them into English. Make up similar dialogues using the words below. Work in pairs or in small groups. 1. A. Agnaedka inti maysa a balay wenno pagtaengan? B. Agnaedak inti maysa a balay. 2. A. Agnaed isuda inti maysa a otel wenno inta pagtaengan?

Armando: Kumusta, Delia! Nabayag nga dita nagkitan. Sadinno ti pagnaedam itan?

How are you Delia? We have not seen each other for a long time. Where do you live now? Delia: Naimbagak met Armando. Nagbakasyonak idiay Hawaii. Itatta, agnanaed- ak inti maysa nga pagtaengan idiay Marikina. I’m fine too, Armando. I took a vacation in Hawaii. Presently, I’m living in an apartment in Marikina. Armando: Mano ti siledna ta pagtataengam? How many rooms are in your apartment? Delia: Dua ti siledna laeng. Two rooms only. Armando: Maragsakanak nga nakita ka Delia. Alluadam ta bagim. Agpakadaakon. I’m glad to see you, Delia. Take care of yourself. Goodbye. Delia: Kasta met kenka, Armando. Alluadam met ta bagim. Same to you, Armando. Do take care of yourself. 6.

have / has

In Ilocano, personal pronouns are in the form of suffixes ak, ka, an, kam, kayo, and da, and they are attached at the end of the verb “to have,” as seen in the chart above. The only pronoun not attached to the verb “to have” is “isuna,” which means “he” or “she”. Example: addaan (have) + ak (I) = addaanak ( I have)

10. Listen to the new vocabulary related to professions and repeat after the speaker. Profession Pagsapulan Doctor Doktor Nurse Nars Laborer Trabahador Teacher Maestro/Maestra Student Estudiante Soldier Soldado Mechanic Mekaniko Farmer Mannalon Police Officer Opisyal a Pulis Waitress Weytres Interpreter Mangipatpatarus

Grammar Notes: Most nouns in English form their plural by adding “s” to the end of the word. In Ilokano, duplicating the first syllable of the noun pluralizes nouns related to professions. Sometimes nouns relating to professions are preceded with numbers or modifiers: “dua a maestro,” (two interpreters) or “adu a mamaestro” (many interpreters). Study the chart below, which lists professions in singular and plural forms. Singular Form Pluralized Form Maestro/Maestra Mamaestro/Mamaestra Doktor Dodoktor Trabahador Trabahadores Mannalon Mannanalon Estudiante Eestudyante Mekaniko Memekaniko Weytres Weweytres

awan maysa dua tallo uppat lima innem pito walo siam sanga-pulo

Spanish

zero uno dos tres kuatro singko sais siete otso nuebe dies Note: Ilokano speakers use two separate sets of numbers: Ilocano numbers are used for basic counting, and Spanish numbers are used for counting huge numbers and telling time and dates. 4. Read the following dialogue. A. What is your telephone number?

Ania ti numero teleponom?

B. My telephone number is (360) 984 – 0217.

Ti teleponok ket (tallo, innem, awan) siam, walo, uppat - awan, dua, maysa pito.

6. Pretend that you are in the hospital. Your classmate is a medical receptionist who wants to know your name, your telephone number, and your house number. Role-play the dialogue using Exercise 4 as a model. Rosita (Medical Receptionist): Ania ti bilang ti teleponom, Luis? What is your telephone number, Luis? Luis: Ti teleponok ket (tallo, innem, awan) siam, walo, uppat, awan, dua, maysa, pito. My telephone is (360) 984-0217. Rosita: Ania ti bilang/numero ti balaymo, Luis?

Ti bilang ti teleponok ket siam, pito, walo, _____, innem, uppat, lima.

Grammar notes: Ilokano numbers follow a decimal system. Numbers beyond nine are developed by counting in terms of the following “base ten” groups. Pulo Group of ten Gasut Group of one hundred Ribu Group of one thousand Laksa Group of ten thousand Riwriw Group of one million Number Notes: Numbers from 11 to 99 are counted by joining the cardinal numbers from one to nine (separated by the ligature “a” if the number ends in a consonant) with the number ten, “pulo.” “Duapulo” is twenty: dua (2) multiplied by pulo (10) is 20. Tallopulo is a set of three tens, so “tallopulo” is equal to 30. The conjunction “ket,” which means “and,” is used to join numbers. For example, “tallopulo ket pito” is “three tens and seven” or 37. Numbers from 11 to 19 also use the prefix “sanga.” “Seventeen” in Ilokano is “sangapulo ket pito.”

8. Listen as the speaker says the numbers 11 to 19. Repeat after the speaker. They are recorded at a slower rate and at a normal rate of speech. Ilokano Spanish 11 eleven Sangapulo ket maysa Onse 12 twelve Sangapulo ket dua Dose 13 thirteen Sangapulo ket tallo Trese 14 fourteen Sangapulo ket uppat Katorse 15 fifteen Sangapulo ket lima Kinse

Page 38: Ilokano Complete

38

The number 100 is “sangagasut.” Gasut is a group of hundred, so “duagasut” simply means 2 groups of one hundred. Simple math will give you this formula: 2 x 100 = 200.

12. Listen to the next set of numbers, spoken both slowly and at a normal rate of speech. Repeat after the speaker. Ilokano Spanish 30 thirty Tallopulo Trenta 40 forty Uppat a pulo Kuarenta 50 fifty Limapulo Singkuenta 60 sixty Innem a pulo Sesenta 70 seventy Pitopulo Setenta 80 eighty Walopulo Otsenta 90 ninety Siam a pulo Nobenta 100 one hundred Sangagasut Sien

Note: The prefix “sanga” is used to denote one group of one hundred. The syllable “a” is used for numbers that end with a consonant, i.e., Uppat a pulo, Innem a pulo, Siam a pulo. When a number ends with a vowel, “a” is not included. 13. Recite the following numbers in Ilokano. 30, 31, 40, 42, 50, 53, 60, 64, 70, 75, 80, 86, 90, 97, 100.

Lesson 4 Inaldaw Nga Ar-aramiden

Daily Activities

This lesson will introduce you to: - How to ask for and tell time - Typical daily activities - The verbs “to go,” “to study,” “to play,” “to work,” “to watch,” “to read,” “to eat,” and

“to get up” - Past tense of the verbs.

Both Spanish and Ilokano are used when telling time. The hour is expressed by using the Ilokano term “alas” followed by the appropriate Spanish number. For example, 3:00 is expressed as “alas tres.” Minutes are also expressed with Spanish numbers. When giving time in hours and minutes, speakers may include the optional Ilokano conjunction “y,” which means “and.” For example, 2:15pm may be expressed with the conjunction, as in “alas dos y kinse” or without, “alas dos kinse”. Both are acceptable and understandable. However, when expressing the 30-minute mark with the term “media” (“half”) you must use “y.” 5:30 may be expressed as “alas singko y media” (literally translated as “five and half”; or as “alas singko treinta” (which translates as “five thirty.”) Examples: 3:00 - Alas tres 4:20 - Alas kuatro bainte/Alas kuatro y bainte 5:00 - Alas singko 5:30 - Alas singko y media or Alas singko treinta a. The following common phrases are used when expressing time. 1. iti bigat - in the morning/am 2. iti malem - in the afternoon/pm 3. iti aldaw - during the day 4. iti sardam - in the evening/pm 5. iti rabii - at night 6. iti tenga’t aldaw - at noon 7. apagisu nga - exactly at 8. segundo - second 9. minuto - minute 10. Ania ti orasen? - What time is it? 11. Alas diesen! - It’s ten o’clock already! 12. media - half (past the hour) 13. kuarto - quarter of an hour 14. menos - minus (less the specified minutes) 15. walo minuto kalpasan ti alas dos ti malem - 8 minutes after 2:00pm

Page 46: Ilokano Complete

46

16. walo minuto kasakbay- an ti alas dos ti malem - 8 minutes before 2:00pm 17. malpas/sakbay - after/before 18. inton bigat - tomorrow 19. idi kalman - yesterday 20. idi napalabas a bulan - last month

b. Study the following examples which use the expressions above: 1. Nangan isuna ti pammigat iti a las otso iti bigat. He ate (took) breakfast at 8:00 in the morning. 2. Simmangpet isuna apagisu nga a las dies iti rabii. He arrived exactly at 10:00 in the evening. The Ilokano word “iti” is a preposition that has several functions based on the context. 1. “Iti” means “in the” when it precedes a term for a part of a day such as morning or afternoon. For example, “iti bigat” means “in the morning.” 2. “Iti” means “at” when it precedes a specific time. For example, “iti a las otso” means “at 8:00.” 3. When “iti” precedes a day of the week or a month, it expresses past time. For example, the phrase, “iti Lunes” means “last Monday.” Sometimes “iti” is shortened to “ti” when speaking, i.e., ti bigat, ti tenga’t aldaw or ti malem. “Tenga’t” is a shortened equivalent of “tenga iti”.

1. Listen as the speaker tells time in Ilokano. Repeat after the speaker.

What time is it? It is four o’clock. What time is it? It is four fifteen.

Ania ti orasen? Alas kuatro. Ania ti orasen? Alas kuatro kinse

Grammar Notes: a. Ilokano verbs (with few exceptions) are developed by adding a prefix to a root word. The most common prefix is “ag” which can transform nouns into the infinitive form of the verb. Study the change in meaning of words with and without the prefix “ag”. Root Meaning Prefix ag+root Meaning bilang count agbilang to count piano piano agpiano to play the piano sao word, language agsao to speak kansion song agkansion to sing sipilio/sipilyo toothbrush agsipilyo/ to brush teeth agsipilio b. The prefixes ag-, maka-, mang-, and the infix –um- form intransitive verbs; whereas, prefixes ka-, and i-, and the suffixes –an and –en form transitive verbs. Intransitive verbs use the –ak pronoun, while transitive verbs use the –ko pronoun. Study the following examples: a. -ak Pronouns 1. napan (went) Napanak idiay Tagaytay. (I went to Tagaytay.) 2. nagsurat(wrote) Nagsuratak ken ni nanang. (I wrote mother.) b. -ko Pronouns 1. inted (gave) Intedko ti regalo ken Maria. (I gave the gift to Maria.) 2. imbarsak (threw) Imbarsakko ti bola. (I threw the ball.) 3. ginatang (bought) Ginatangko ti tiket. (I bought the ticket.)

Lesson 5 Panagtitipon Ti Pamilia

Meeting the Family

This lesson will introduce you to: - Kinship terms used for immediate and extended family - How to ask and answer simple questions about family members - The pronouns “who,” “this,” “that,” “these,” and “those”.

Introduction and Family Background: The Filipino family is basically composed of a father, a mother, children, and grandparents. The father is the head and financial provider. As head, he makes decisions and sees to it that things are carried through. The mother is in charge of all household matters but her primary responsibility is caring for the children. The children are inportant in the family-oriented Philippine culture because they are the link between the wife’s family and the husband’s. Grandparents are the most respected members of a Filipino family. The grandfather in particular plays an important role in decision-making. Younger members, and even those outside the family structure, often seek a grandfather’s opinions and advice. He is the top of the family hierarchy and is likened to an old tribal chief. The Filipino family is bilateral in that the relatives of both husband and wife share equal status. Again, it is the children who establish the bond for grandparents, uncles, aunts and down the line.

1. Look at these photos of families. Listen to the kinship terms and repeat after the speaker.

Grammar Notes: Ilokano Demonstratives and Interrogative Pronouns: a. Ilokano uses three spatial orientations in its demonstratives. Daytoy (Sing) - This - is used to denote the thing very near or close to the speaker. Dagitoy (Plu) - These – is used to denote things very near or close to the speaker.

Dayta (Sing) - That - is used to denote the thing near the addressee. Dagita (Plu) - Those – is used to denote things near the addressee.

Daydiay (Sing)- That - is used to denote the thing far from both the speaker and the addressee Dagidiay (Plu) -Those – is used to denote things far from both the speaker

and the addressee.

b. Study the following spatial orientations of the above demonstratives.

Proximal Medial Distal Singular daytoy dayta daydiay

Plural dagitoy dagita dagidiay

Page 69: Ilokano Complete

69

Examine the uses of the above demonstratives in sentences:

1. Kayatko daytoy lapis. I like this pencil. Kayatko dagitoy laplapis. I like these pencils. Note: “Daytoy” refers to a singular noun (pencil); “Dagitoy” refers to a plural noun (pencils). The plural noun “laplapis” agrees with “dagitoy”. The first syllable of the word, laplapis is reduplicated to form its plural. This applies to most Ilokano nouns.

c. Ilokano Interrogatives Asino/Asinno/Sinno - are interrogatives similar to “who.” Asino appears in the initial predicate position in questions. Examples: Asino ti immay? - Who came? Asinno ti agkanta? - Who is going to sing?

2. Listen to the following dialogues and repeat them after the speaker. Role-play the dialogues using the pictures above. 1. A. Who is this? 1.A. Asinno daytoy? B. This is my mother. B.

Lesson 7 Shopping

Panaggatgatang This lesson will introduce you to:

- Customs and practices in the Philippine marketplace - Names of foods and stores - How to make purchases in Philippine shops - The verbs “to want,” “to buy,” “to pay,” and “to take” - The modal verb “can”.

The local currency in the Philippines is the Peso. It is equivalent to 100 centavos (cents). Coins come in one, five, ten, twenty-five, and fifty centavos; paper denominations come in one, two, five, ten, twenty-five, fifty and one hundred pesos. The exchange rate fluctuates depending on the status of the economy but currently one US dollar exchanges for fifty-five to fifty-six pesos. Foreign currency can be converted to pesos in commercial banks and dealers authorized by the Central Bank of the Philippines The Philippines has a literacy rate of 94.6 percent, yet, is unable to sustain steady economic growth. The country cannot generate enough jobs. Many citizens leave home braving the uncertainties of life in a foreign land to secure a more stable income abroad in order to support themselves and their families. About 40% of the population lives below the poverty line. Most people are farmers whose income originates from agricultural products including rice, corn, bananas, and sugar cane. An average family may earn about 30 to 50 dollars a month. Visitors may be struck by the astonishing poverty of the country and the incredible gap between the rich and the poor.

Shopping in department stores in the Philippines can be an enjoyable experience because items are cheap and affordable, and salespeople are hospitable. The Philippines is considered the last “bargain center” in Asia. Department stores feature a variety of goods including clothing, perfume, home and electrical appliances, toys, and thousands of other commodities as well as imported goods. Imported items are expensive and are for wealthier customers. Major shopping centers in Manila and other big cities are open seven days a week, from 9:00am to 10:00pm. Goods are sold at fixed prices in big department stores in big cities. In contrast, the prices of goods in small stores and shops are subject to bargaining. The salesperson and the buyer haggle for the price. Usually, the salesperson settles for a price 30 to 50 percent lower than the original asking price. Buyers must learn to haggle with smiles or jokes to gain the greatest success in bargaining. Remember though, that haggling is not acceptable in big department stores. 4. Work in pairs or in small groups. Make up dialogues using the model below. Model: A. Sadino ti pagtrabtrabahuan ni Alicia?

B. Agtratrabaho ni Alicia idiay tiendaan ti makmakan.

Model: A. Where does Alicia work? B. Alicia works at the grocery store.

Ilokano Verbs: Ilokano infinitive is formed by attaching a so-called, verbalizing affix “ag” to a root. Most mouns can be converted into a verb by using “ag” as prefix. For instance, the noun “kanta”(song) when prefixed with “ag” becomes “agkanta” meaning, “to sing.” In previous lesson, it is stated that the prefix “ag” is one among the prefixes used to form the infinitive of a verb.

Page 96: Ilokano Complete

96

Examples: 1. aggatang (ag + gatang) - to buy 2. agsurat (ag + surat) - to write

3. aglagto (ag + lagto) - to jump The word “want” is something desired, longed for, or wanted. “Want” means “kayat” in Ilokano. When the word “kayat” is used with pronouns (ko, mo, isuna(na), mi, da), it is suffixed with any of the preceding enclosed pronouns. Examples: I want to buy fruit. Kayatko ti aggatang ti prutas. You want to buy fruit Kayatmo ti aggatang ti prutas. He/She wants to buy fruits. Kayatna ti aggatang ti prutas. We want to buy fruit. Kayatmi ti aggatang ti ptutas. They want to buy fruit. Kayatda ti aggatang ti prutas.

5. Familiarize yourself with the new vocabulary. Listen to the speaker and follow along in the workbook. Look at the pictures and try to guess the meaning of unknown words.

Kayat ni Barbara ti aggatang/gumatang ti libro. Adda isuna iti tiendaan ti liblibro.

Kayat ni Cesar ti aggatang/gumatang ti pagorasan. Adda isuna iti tiendaan ti regregalo.

Did you understand the bolded words? ______________ - bookstore ______________ - clock ______________ - gift store

Page 97: Ilokano Complete

97

Grammar Notes: The infinitive form of the verb “gatang” (“buy”) may also be created by inserting the infix “um”. “Gumatang” means “to buy” and is equivalent to “aggatang”. The infix “um” is also a verbalizing affix placed immediately before the first vowel of the stem with meanings:

a. to do the action expressed by the stem b. to assume the state or condition described by the stem

6. Match each Ilokano sentence in the left column with the English equivalent in the right column. Check your answers with the answer key. 1. Kayatko ti gumatang iti tinapay ken mantikelya. A. Antonio wants to buy fish. 2. Kayat ni Pedro ti gumatang iti libro B. They want to buy cheese. 3. Kayat ni Antonio ti gumatang iti ikan. C. I want to buy bread and butter. 4.

Pedro wants to buy a book. 7. Kayat ti kabsatko nga babai ti gumatang iti luplupot. G. We want to buy a gift. Grammar Notes: The ligature (or linker) is a connective particle used in Philippine languages to connect various parts of a sentence. The Ilokano ligature has two variants: nga before vowels, and a before consonants. However, in speaking, the ligature nga is usually preferred regardless of phonetic environment. Among the many uses of ligature are the following:

a. connects adjectives to nouns b. introduces complements or appositions of all syntactic categories

7. Work with a partner or in small groups. Pretend that you are planning to have a surprise birthday party for one of your classmates. You need to buy some food and gifts. Make a shopping list and tell your partner in Ilokano what you want to buy. Grammar Notes: a. The following is a list of the most frequent interrogative particles in Ilokano. Ania - what Apay - why Asino - who Kaano - when Kasano - how Mano - how much; how many Sadino/sadinno- where (is action done) Sadino - where

Page 98: Ilokano Complete

98

Siasino - who Asino - who Plural Form of Nouns The plural form of nouns is formed by duplicating the initial syllable. Singular Plural itlog it-itlog prutas prutprutas kamiseta kamkamiseta b. Read the following questions. Notice how the sentences differ for singular and plural. 1. How much is an egg? 1. Mano ti maysa nga itlog? How much are eggs? Mano dagiti it-itlog? 2.

Lesson 9 Piespiesta, Ug-ugali, ken Dagiti Naipakadawyan a Sursuro

Holidays, Customs, and Cultural Traditions

This lesson will introduce you to: - How to read dates - How to use ordinal numbers - Names of the months - Holidays, customs, and cultural traditions of the Philippines.

Cultural Notes on Philippine Holidays: Christmas (Paskua) Filipinos celebrate the longest Christmas in the world. Christmas colors start in October, and Christmas music starts to fill the air. Houses are adorned with “Parol” a star-shaped lantern made from bamboo sticks and covered with colored paper, normally hung inside houses and windows. Nine days before Christmas, before dawn each morning, church bells ring calling worshippers to an early morning mass. The mass is called Misa de Gallo (Mass of the Rooster) because roosters start crowing during this early part of the morning. Midnight masses and family gatherings on Christmas Day are the center of the occasion. The Feast of the Three Kings ends in January. This holiday is not only the happiest but also the most meaningful month in the Philippines for it is a time for families and friends to gather together and celebrate traditions handed down from generation to generation. Holidays (Pies-Piesta) Filipinos love fiestas. These holidays give meaning to their lives and rhythm to their years. Fiestas combine worship, food, music, and often, spectacular dances. Families in communities gather together during this celebration. Each small ethnic group has unique rituals and festivals. Even though the origins of these festivals are foreign, they have become distinctly Filipino. Lent (Kuaresma) Lent lasts from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday and is a somber season. Older folks take turns chanting the “Pasyon” (Life and Death of Christ). Elder women wail like they do for the “Dung-aw” or traditional lament for the dead, which predates Christianity. Palm Sunday starts Holy Week. Filipinos weave palm fronds into many elaborate designs, which are brought to church to wave as a remembrance of Jesus’ triumphant return to Jerusalem. Priests bless the palm fronds and the faithful hang them above doors and in house altars with the belief they will keep the house and the whole family always safe and healthy.

Holy Week (Nangina/Nasantuan nga Aldaw) The climax of Lent is the Holy Week that commemorates the week of Christ’s death and resurrection. Palm Sunday ushers in Holy Week. The folk aspect of Christianity is seen in a ritual called, “Pabasa” when the teachings of Christ are chanted. In the southern part of the Philippines, flagellants beat their bare backs with glass-spiked leather, not as an act of masochism, but in fulfillment of a “Sapata” or a vow. The devotee lives up to a promise to undergo the pain and humiliation of their penitential act in exchange for a granted request or a forgiven wrong. Some “pabasa” participants even go to the extent of having themselves tied or nailed to a cross on Good Friday. They believe once they subject themselves to this it will totally obliterate sins they have committed. Birth (Pannakayanak) Birth is normally an occasion everyone welcomes as they speculate over the baby’s gender and name, and later, from whom in the family the baby’s name will derive. The first religious ritual for a Filipino baby born into a Catholic family is baptism. Parents invite sponsors to be godparents of the child. Godparents will serve as second parents in the absence of the biological parents. During the baptism, all relatives and some neighbors are invited. Parents will spend most all of their savings because the coming of a new child to their lives is considered good luck especially if the child is a boy. Independence Day (Aldaw ti Waya-waya) Originally celebrated on July 4 each year to occur at the same time with the US independence celebration, it was later changed to June 12 when the Philippines gained freedom from the US in 1946. Just like in the US, celebrations are held all over the archipelago in the form of parades, open air programs, food fiestas, and speeches.

9 nine 9 - Siam ninth Maikasiam 10 ten 10 – Sangapulo tenth Maikasangapulo

Ordinal Number Grammar Notes: Ordinal numbers simply use the prefix “maika” except for “one/first”. Note that the ordinal numbers third, fourth, and sixth can be shortened to maikatlo, maikapat, and maikanem instead of the whole word maikatallo, maikauppat, and maikainnem. Either way is acceptable.

2. Fill in the blanks to complete the sentences. Use the words located in the box. Check your answers with the answer key.

maikalima maikadua umuna maikainnem maikatallo maikapito maikapat maikapito 1. Lunes ket __________ nga aldaw ti lawas. 2. Martes ket __________nga aldaw ti lawas. 3.

Dominggo ket ________nga aldaw ti lawas. Grammar Notes on Ordinal Numbers For the numbers over “ten”, the pattern continues. For instance, the ordinal number “eleventh” would be, maikasangapulo ket maysa, and the ordinal number “twentieth” is “maikaduapulo”. Study the rest of these ordinal numbers: Thirtieth (30th) - maikatallopulo Fortieth (40th) - maikauppat a pulo Fiftieth (50th) - maikalimapulo Sixtieth (60th) - maikainnem a pulo Seventieth (70th) - maikapitopulo Eightieth (80th) - maikawalopulo Ninetieth (90th) - maikasiam a pulo

Cultural and Grammar Notes:

a. Ilokanos are very careful to show respect when speaking to someone, especially if the person is older or of higher status than the speaker. An Ilokano would never say simply, “Naimbag a bigatmo”(Good morning) without adding the title of the person to whom they are speaking, such as: Mis (Miss), Manang (Older sister), Manong (Older brother), Lelong or Lolo/Lelang or Lola (Grandfather/Grandmother), Tita/Tito (Aunt/Uncle), Ading (Younger brother/sister). Study the following greetings: 1. Naimbag a bigatyo, Lola Gonyang. (Older than the speaker) Good morning, Grandma Gonyang. 2. Naragsak a paskuayo, Nanang, Tatang. (Older than the speaker)

Merry Christmas, Mom, Dad. 3. Naimbag nga aldawyo, Mayor! (Older than the speaker) Good day, Mayor!

4. Naimbag nga malemmo, Oscar. (Same age/younger than the speaker) Good afternoon, Oscar.

5. Naragsak nga baro a tawenmo, Ading. (Same age/younger than the speaker) Happy New Year, Ading. b. Notice the above greetings toward elders demonstrating respect. Ilokanos show respect by using the plural pronoun “-yo”(your - plural) when addressing older people, strangers, and people of higher social status. In Sentences 4 and 5, the singular pronoun “–mo”(your – singular) is used for people the same age or younger than the speaker.

(2) The words “rainy” (natudo/tutudo), “foggy” (naulep), “windy” (naangin), etc. are adjectives and are formed from the root words (rain/tudo, fog/ulep, wind/angin, etc.) by adding the prefix “na.” For example:

na + tudo = natudo na + ulep = naulep na + angin = naangi

Example: Natutudo ti panawen iti Manila no bulan ti Hunio ken bulan ti Hulio. (The weather in Manila is rainy during the month of June and the month of July.) The word “natutudo” (rainy) in this sentence is used to describe the weather in Manila. (3) The words “ti,” “nga,” and “iti” are particles/markers/linkers in Ilocano. Napudot ti Manila. (Manila is hot.) Ti Manila nga suidad ket napudot. (The City of Manila is hot.) Napudot ti Manila iti panawen ti kalgaw. (Manila is hot in the summer.)

Lesson 12 Langa

Personal Appearance

This lesson will introduce you to: - Physical features (hair color, weight, height, etc.) - Articles of clothing - Colors - Appropriate ways to ask about someone’s appearance.

1. Look at the pictures below and familiarize yourself with the new vocabulary. Listen to the descriptions of people’s appearances.

Tall Short Heavy Thin Young Old

Natayag Bassit/Ababa Nadagsen Nakuttong Agtutubo Nataenganen/Lumakayen

Short Long Blond Red Gray

Ababa/Bassit Attidog Maris a kasla ti amarilio/balitok

Nalabasit Maris a kasla ti dapo

Page 161: Ilokano Complete

161

2. Look at the pictures below and listen to the descriptions of people’s appearances.

This woman is young. This man is also young. Nataengan datoy a babai . Nataenganen metten datoy a lalaki. She is tall and thin. He has an average height and medium frame. Natayag ken nakuttong isuna. Addaan ti kalkalainganna a kangato ken kalkalainganna a pammagi. Grammar notes: 1. Adjectives generally include a prefix, though there are a few that do not have a prefix, such as baro (new), bassit (small), dakkel (large), etc. a) Most adjectives use the prefix “na:” natayag tall nakuttong thin

nalinteg straight nadagsen heavy (weight) nalag-an light (weight) nalaka cheap/easy

napintas pretty nagarbo handsome nasadot lazy nagaget industrious (etc.)

b) A small group of adjectives can also serve as adverbs: these are formed from verb roots and use the prefix ‘ma’:

mabigbig well-known malako saleable, selling masansan frequent (ly) c) There is a small group of adjectives that has a “frozen” prefix: “a.” This prefix

indicates measurement or distance. Note that this prefix always occurs in Ilokano (although not in other Philippine languages).

ababa short adayo far asideg near attiddog long

Page 162: Ilokano Complete

162

2. To say “tall guy” in Ilokano, you may put the adjective before or after the noun, but you must include a particle, “nga” or “a.” Look at the example below. natayag a lalaki (tall guy) wenno(or) lalaki a natayag (guy who is tall) nadagsen a ubing (heavy child) ubing a nadagsen (child who is heavy)

nakuttong a babai (thin/slender woman) babai a nakuttong (woman who is thin/slender)

nataengan a tao (old man) tao a nataenganen (person who is old)

3. To compare two people or things, repeat the second syllable of the adjective, as in the examples below: natayag (tall) nataytayag (taller) Nataytayag ni Pedro ngem ni Mario.

(Pedro is taller than Mario.) nadagsen (heavy) nadagdagsen (heavier) nakuttong (thin) nakutkuttong (thinner) Adjectives without the “na” prefix just repeat the first syllable: Bassit (small) Basbassit (smaller) Basbassit ni Mario ngem ni Pedro. Dakkel (big/large) Dakdakel (bigger) (Mario is smaller than Pedro.) Note: “ngem ni” is used before a name of a person. “ngem iti/ti” is used before a common noun. 4. To compare more than two people or things, place the prefix “ka” before the root word of the adjective and add the suffix “an” at the end of the root word: ka + tayag + an = katayagan tallest Prefix + RW + suffix

kadagsenan heaviest kakuttungan most slender/thinnest

Example: Isu ti katayaganda amin nga agtutubo a lallaki iti klase. He is the tallest boy in the class.

Lesson 13 Lugan/Pagluganan

Transportation

This lesson will introduce you to: - Verbs of motion - Asking questions regarding different modes of transportation - Different types of transportation available in the Philippines. Cultural Notes: The transportation system in the Philippines is similar to the United States. Yet there are some noticeable differences. Most people in big cities rely on buses, passenger jeeps (jeepneys), taxicabs, tricycles, ferry boats and mini vans as their everyday transportation. Only a small percentage of the population in Manila can afford to buy their own cars because cars are too expensive for ordinary families. However, some lower income workers are proud car owners and some even hire their own personal drivers. Very few people use motorcycles for leisure. Instead motorcycles are converted to tricycles to make money as public transportation. Ferryboats, trains and airplanes are very accessible for commuter transport from Manila to Mindanao, Visayan, Palawan and other faraway islands. In villages and small towns, people still use “Karomata” or “Karatela” (horse-drawn vehicles for four to six passengers) and tricycles (for two passengers) as their primary means of transport to other towns and secluded areas. They could use small trucks and jeeps, but this is not very common as many of the roads are unpaved. Some people, especially tenant farmers, still depend on “Kariton” (wooden carts drawn by water buffalo, caribou, or bulls) to transport their products within village areas, though it is not advisable to use them on public roads.

1. Listen and repeat the following words as you read along.

Airplane Bicycle Ship Bus Eroplano Bisikleta Bapor Bus

Car Ferry Boat Helicopter Kotse Balsa/Pagiballasiw a Bapor Helikopter

Motorcycle Taxi Train Truck Motorsiklo Taksi Tren Trak Grammar Notes: 1. Verbs such as “to drive” and “to ride” are formed by adding the prefix ‘ag’ before the root word. Examples: (a) agmaneho (to drive) Agmanehoak ti kotse a mapan ti trabaho nga inaldaw. (I drive a car to go to work everyday.) . ‘ak’ is the short form for the pronoun ‘I’ (siak) and attached at the end of a word. (b) aglugan (to ride) Agluganak ti kotse a mapan ti trabaho nga inaldaw. (I ride in a car to go to work everyday.) 2. The verb “to walk” is translated as ‘magna”. Examples: (a) Magnaak a mapan ti libreria. (I walk to the library.)

(b) Magmagna ni Mario a mapan ti trabahona nga tunggal Lunes inggana’t Biernes. (Mario walks to work Monday to Friday.)

Page 178: Ilokano Complete

178

3. In Exercise 2, “I go by car” is formed first by affixing ‘ag’ before the word ‘kotse’. In short, “agkotse’ (ride/drive a car) is the same as “agmaneho ti kotse/aglugan ti kotse.” Examples: Agkotseak a mapan ti konsierto intono rabii. (I will go by car to the concert tonight.) Agbusak a mapan ti eskuelaan no bigat. (I will ride a bus to go to school tomorrow.) Agbapor isu a mapan ti Mindanaw. (She/he takes a ship to go to Mindanao.) “isu/isuna” is in the third person singular meaning “he/she”

Agtrenkami a mapan ti Manila no Mierkules. (We will ride a train to go to Manila on Wednesday.)

“kami’means ‘we’.

2. Listen to the questions and answers about using different forms of transportation. Repeat after the speaker as you read along.

How do you go to work? Kasanoka a mapan ti trabaho?

by car agkotseak a mapan car Agluganak ti kotse. by bus agbusak a mapan train Agluganak ti bus. by train agtrenak a mapan train Agluganak ti tren. by bicycle agbisikletaak a mapan

bicycle Agluganak ti bisikleta.

by boat agbaporak a mapan boat Agluganak ti bapor.

by motorcycle agmotorsikloak

motorcycle Agluganak ti motorsiklo.

I go Mapanak

by truck agtrakak

I take/ride the agluganak ti

truck Agluganak ti trak.

Agluganak ti bus a mapan ti eskuelaan I, motorcycle, my brother, to ride, to, school, bicycle, our parents, car, airport, train, concert, library, my friend, to drive, taxi, bus, to walk For instance, you need to go to the post office, but don’t know how to get there. Ask a stranger on the street how to get there. - Excuse me. I want to go to the post office. How do I get there? - Dispensarennakman kadi, kayatko ti mapan ti opisina ti koreo. Kasano ti mapan idiay? - Bus number 14.

Page 180: Ilokano Complete

180

- Bus numero katorse/sangapulo ket uppat. - Thank you. - Pagyamanak! Grammar Notes: Dispensarennak man- excuse me Dispensaren/Pagdispensaren- excuse/pardon ‘Ak’ also means ‘me’ and is attached to the end of the word. Example: Dispensarennak, kayatko ti mapan ti opisina ti koreo. Kasano kadi ti mapan idiay? (Excuse me. I want to go to the post office. How do I get there? Kayatko- I want Kayat- want/like Masapulko- I need ‘Ko’ is a possessive modifier of the subject pronoun ‘I’ and is attached to the end of the word. Kasano - how (interrogative) Kadi- marker/indicator for asking questions Idiay – there (demonstrative pronoun/location) Agyamanak unay kenka/Dakkel a pagyamanak kenka are expressions that mean “Thank you very much”. (Usually,”kenka” is not necessary.) Unay- very/much Dakkel- literally means ‘big/large’ and may be used instead of ‘unay’. Agyamanak kenka ti dakkel or Dakkel a pagyamanak (“I thank you very much”, not “I thank you very big” as a literal translation.) Kenka- ‘for you’ Awan ti aniamanna- is an expression that literally translates to “It’s nothing” but its more popular meaning is “You’re welcome.”

5. Listen to the following dialogue them and repeat after the speaker. - Excuse me. I want to go to the library. How do I get there? - Dispensarennak kadi, kayatko ti mapan ti libraria.

Lesson 14 Biahe/Baniaga

Travel

This lesson will introduce you to: - Vocabulary related to travel - How to buy a train, bus, or airplane ticket - How to understand schedules - Border crossing and roadblock procedures.

Grammar Notes: Primera klase a tiket – First-class ticket Segunda klase a tiket - Second-class tiket The words ‘Primera klase” and “Segunda klase” are words borrowed from Spanish. Ilokanos prefer to use them instead of the Ilokano translations “umuna a klase” or “maikadua a klase”. First-class travel has wider seats, and a higher boarding and exiting priority, etc. Although more expensive, most people prefer first class, especially the rich and the famous. Buying tickets for buses and ferryboats is usually done after all the passengers have boarded, unlike in the United States where you buy your ticket ahead of time. That is why every bus in the Philippines, such as the “Rabbit Transit” and “Pantranco Transit”, has its own assistant or conductor to collect fares and issue tickets while the bus driver just does the driving.

Page 189: Ilokano Complete

1. Listen to the following dialogue about buying a ticket at a train station, and read along in the workbook. Dispensarennak man kadi a, seniora. Soldier: Excuse me, ma’am. Ania kad ti maitulongko ? * ‘kad’ is a short form of ‘kadi’, and

indicates a question Ticket Seller: How can I help you? Masapulko ti gumatang ti tiket a mapan iti siudad ti Manila. Soldier: I need to buy a ticket to go to Manila. Ania kad nga aldaw ti papanawmo? Ticket Seller: Departing on what day? Ita nga aldaw Soldier: Today. Agpapan laeng wenno agpapan -agawid? Ticket Seller: One-way only or roundtrip? Agpapan -agawid. Soldier: Roundtrip. Primera klase wenno segunda klase? Ticket Seller: First class or second class? Segunda klase laeng. Soldier: Just second class Ania kad nga aldaw ti panagsublim? Ticket Seller: Returning on what day? Biernes Soldier: Friday Bigat, malem, wenno rabii kadi? Ticket Seller: Morning, afternoon, or evening?

Page 190: Ilokano Complete

190

Malem Soldier: Afternoon

Ti bayadmo man ngarud a duapulo ket dua a doliares. Iti sumaruno a tren ket pumanaw iti maysa nga oras idiay plataporma numero lima.

Ticket Seller: The fare is twenty-two dollars, please. The next train leaves in one hour from platform number 5.

Agyamanak. Ania kad ti numero iti tren? Soldier: Thank you. What is the train number? Pitupulo ket innem. Ticket Seller: 76 Napardas kadi datoy a tren? Soldier: Is this an express train? Wen a, napardas datoy a tren. Ticket Seller: Yes, this is an express train. Grammar Notes: Infinitive Forms: Present Forms: Past Forms: to board- lumugan lumuglugan limmugan to depart- pumanaw pumanpanaw pimmanaw to arrive- sumangpet sumangsangpet simmangpet to leave- pumanaw/lumuwas lumlumwas limmuas to come- umay um-umay immay to come back/return- agsubli agsubsubli nagsubli “Must” and “should” are helping verbs and are usually followed by a main verb. These helping verbs are both translated as “masapul”. “Need” is also translated as “masapul” but is usually followed by an infinitive or a noun. Examples: Masapulko ti aglugan ti eroplano a mapan idiay Pilipinas (I must /should ride an airplane to go to the Philippines.) Main verb Masapulko ti aglugan ti eroplano a mapan idiay Pilipinas. (I need to ride an airplane to go the Philippines.) Infinitive Masapulko ti eroplano nga lugan a mapan idiay Pilipinas. (I need an airplane ride to go the Philippines.) Noun Masapulna –she/he must/should/need Masapulmi- we must/should/need Masapulda-they must/should/need

2. Read the dialogue with a partner. Take turns being the Ticket Seller and Soldier. 3. Role-play the dialogue. You can substitute the name of a city where you need to buy a ticket to, the time and day of arriving and departing, and the price of the ticket. Grammar Notes: To form the future tense of a majority of Ilokano verbs, attach “to” (future indicator) at the end of the word. (Infinitive Form) (Future Form) Examples: aglugan- to ride agluganto- will/shall ride lumugan-to board lumuganto- will/shall board pumanaw- to leave/depart pumanawto- will/shall leave/depart sumangpet- to arrive sumangpetto- will/shall arrive Time measurements, such as tomorrow (no bigat), tomorrow afternoon (no ti bigat ti malem), etc., may follow the verb. Sentences: Agluganto no bigat iti eroplano ni Pedro. (Pedro will ride an airplane

tomorrow.) Lumuganakto no bigat iti eroplano. (I will board the airplane tomorrow.) Pumanawto ti bus a masapa no malem. (The bus will leave early in the

afternoon.) Sumangpetto intuno rabii ti tren. (The train will arrive tonight.)

Lesson 15 Idiay Eskuelaan

At School

This lesson will introduce you to: - Vocabulary related to classroom activities and being a student - The education system in the Philippines.

Cultural Notes: Education is highly valued in the Philippines. Young children can attend kindergarten at age five and preschool before that. Nearly all children begin six years of elementary school at age six or seven. A few schools have a seventh year of elementary education. Seventy percent of children go on to high school. One year of military training is included in the high school curriculum. High school graduation is at age 16 or 17. The school year is from June to March. Many students go on to college or vocational training. Regular college courses usually take four to five years to finish. There is no compulsory education. Only those who want to and can afford it can obtain secondary education at colleges or private schools. There are no government student financial aid programs. However, schools may award scholarships to students with exceptional academic records. There are established curricula for every school and college. Some of the subjects are: Reading, Arithmetic/Mathematics, General Science, Philippine History, World History, Biology, English, etc. Below is an overview of the education system in the Philippines:

Schools Teachers Students Student per Teacher Ratio Elementary 33, 697 292, 692 9, 204, 168 31 Secondary 5, 388 101, 002 3, 420, 921 34 University 1, 178 33, 935 1, 127, 960 33 GNP for Education: 1.7% Literacy Rate: 89%

Study the model: who + the form of to like + infinitive. Examples: Sam likes to study math. Kayat ni Sam ti agadal ti matimatik. Peter likes to listen to music after school. Kayat ni Peter ti agdengngeg ti musika kalpasan ti eskuel. Sandra likes to read in the evenings. Kayat ni Sandra ti agbasa iti sarsardam. We like to speak Ilokano in our class. Kayatmi ti agsao ti Ilokano idiayklasemi. Grammar Notes: 1. Interrogative “who” is translated to “sinno”, and is used in asking a person and is usually followed by “kadi” or “kad” (short form of kadi) as interrogative indicator. Example: Sinno kadi ti maestrom ti Ingles? (Who is your teacher in English?) 2. “to like” is “kayaten”. It is formed by a suffix ‘en’. Kayat (rw)+en = kayaten

Examples: (a) Kayat ni Manuel ti agadal ti kinaabogasia no malpasna ti nangato a grado ti eskuelaan. Manuel would like to become an attorney after finishing high school.

(b) Kayatko ti agadal ti kinadoktor idi agtawenak pay ti duapulo. I like to study to become doctor when I was still 20 years old. (c)Kayatda ti agbuya ti ay-ayam nga baskitbol inton malem ti Sabado.. They like to watch basketball game on Saturday afternoon. (d) Kayatmi ti agsau ti Ilokano iday klasemi. We like to speak Ilokano in our class. (e) Kayatna ti agbalin a sientipiko no malpasna ti nangato a grado a eskuelaan. He/She would like to become a scientist after high school. 6. Work with a partner.

Lesson 18 Politika ken iti Mapaspasamak ti Sangalubungan

Political and International Events

This lesson will introduce you to: - The vocabulary associated with politics and international issues - How they are reported in Ilokano news - How to read and understand political events written in Ilokano newspapers.

Culture Notes The Republic of the Philippines has 72 provinces which are divided into municipalities made of barangays (barrios). The central government is led by a president elected every 4 years. The current president of the Philippines (2006) is Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Congress consists of a 200-seat House of Representatives and a 24-seat Senate. Each province is represented by a governor, a mayor for a city and a barangay captain for a barrio; all elected by the people in each jurisdiction. The Philippines has three branches of government like the US; executive, legislative and judicial branches. There are two main political parties, the nationalist and the liberal. Most government offices are in Quezon City, the former capital named for Manuel Quezon, the first president of the country when it became a U.S. Commonwealth in 1935. The President of the Philippines usually resides at Malacanang Palace until their tenure of office ends. The voting age is 15 for local elections and 18 for national elections. The early 1980s saw a decline of the Philippine economy, mounting political unrest and the growth of a communist insurgency. The mid-1980s was consumed with a political and economic crisis that ultimately led to the dramatic downfall of Ferdinand Marcos in February 1986 and the ascension of Corazon Aquino. When Joseph Estrada was forced out from the presidency, Gloria Arroyo succeeded him. She also won the 2004 election against the famous Filipino actor Fernando Poe Jr. who died of stroke several months after the election. The main issues confronting the present government are still about the poor economy, corruption, the Abu Sahyaff Al Qaedas terrorist organization, the insurgency campaign of the communist New People’s Army and the Moslem secessionists. Filipinos continue to struggle and at the same time optimistically looking forward for always a new future.

Lesson 20 Idiay Ospital

In the Hospital

This lesson will introduce you to: - The vocabulary related to the medical emergency and life-saving measures - The terminology related to internal organs - The ways to ask questions about the vital signs.

Health Notes: Before a person can be operated in the private hospital especially those without health insurance, there is a down payment first before proceeding with any surgical operation. One problem is that very few doctors/physicians have extensive advanced training, unlike in the United States. The U.S. has more advanced equipment and technology to offer than the Philippines. Ambulance service usually is not free. In the rural areas, there is high difficulty of securing an ambulance to go to a hospital. Therefore, most people use their own transportation or rent a jeepney in the neighborhood. It is very important of being able to communicate in Ilokano during emergencies especially in the rural areas. Phrases such as “Masapulko ti tulong unay!” (I need help badly!), “Sumardengka dita!” (Stop there!), “Pumanawkayo a dagus ti balbalayo” (Abandon your house immediately!), etc. will be useful. In Lesson 17, you already learned the names of human body parts, how to ask questions about a person’s state of health, and how to describe health conditions and symptoms of sickness. You also know how to handle the visit to the doctor’s office. In this lesson, you will familiarize yourself with the vocabulary used for life threatening health conditions, such as heart attacks, gunshot wounds, severe bleeding, and head injuries.
