Does anyone have any recommendations for a good site on Tagalog grammar? I only know of the SEAsite one.

Well, hey, that's all I know besides SEAsite, too, as far as online resources go! :lol:

Hello, ako si Caireign. Nag-aral ako ng Tagalog sa mula April ngayon taon. Alam ko mahirap pero nagsasaya. Gusto ko pumunta sa Pilipinas isang araw.

Mag-aral ako gamit ang Internet, Rosetta Stone, Living Languages at Pimsular. Hindi pa mabuti ang gramatika ko. ^^;

Is there a Tagalog translation game in the forum?

Not really sure what I can do with Tagalog on this forum, but I noticed this:
Æren wrote:I started with the online course in seasite.niu.edu (7 years ago wooh!).
Now I am sticking to Basic Tagalog for Foreigners and Non-Tagalogs.

I've been using both of these, too (usually alternating between them with long gaps between one or the other).

You're lucky. I have the 1969 edition. It sucks! :lol:

Maybe Easy Languages can be helpful:

Tbh, I posted another one of their videos on r/tagalog, and a native speaker told me that the guy in the Easy Filipino videos talks WAY too fast. Maybe this might be useful, though.
