Here is a study group for Tagalog. I suggest going through seasite lessons, but if you have another idea, we can also choose something else.

What about our pace? And which lesson should we start from? I guess there is no point in starting from the very basics.

How far along are you in those lessons? Have you already gone through them (I only ask because I thought you said at one point that you did)? What I've been doing is mostly just going through the conversations very slowly and using them to build up my vocabulary (and listening skills, of course, since there are recordings of those conversations accompanying the transcript, too :)).

The last one I did was Chapter 3.

I've done only the grammar part (but I haven't learned all the words from the lessons). For vocabulary I used mostly memrise and songs.
Since I haven't touched these lessons for several month, I'd like to revise them.
If you want, we can start from lesson 4.

I've created a study group for Indonesian also.

I think maybe we can start with lesson 3, actually...I've forgotten entirely what the dialogue in that lesson was about. We could maybe try doing lessons 3 and 4 by next week or something? Since I've already done the dialogue for lesson 3, I imagine that should go relatively quickly.

All right, so I guess it's settled then. We'll read the dialogues at least for both lessons by Monday, July 9. :)

I just listened to dialog 3 again and realized that I haven't actually learned all the words in it yet. :P I then started lesson 4.

I guess "Tiburcio ang tawag mo sa akin" means 'you called me Tiburcio'?

Other new vocabulary from the dialogue and from the vocabulary list for lesson 3 and from various parts for lesson 4:

(to be) afraid = takot
to be alone = mag-isa
allegedly = daw
fault = kasalanan
first, beforehand, for now = muna
fisherman = mangingisda
worker = manggagawa
farmer = magsasaka
mailman = kartero
nation = bangsa
respect = galang
(act of) being respectful = pagggalang
fellow human being = kapwa
humility = pagpapakababa
there = doon
to be born = ipinanganak
parent = magulang
to live = nakatira
to be(come) acquainted with = makilala
to introduce = ipakilala
Chinese (people/language/culture, informally) = Intsik
name = pangalan
sibling = kapatid
how long (length) = gaano kahaba
how long (time) = gaano katagal
spouse = asawa

Salajane, how've you been doing? Should we move on to Lesson 5 for next week (Monday, July 16)? Or would you prefer something else? What do you think? :)

I just went through Lesson 5. I learned all of the following words:

while = habang
blanket = kumot
to learn (to) = matuto(ng)
to curl up underneath something = mamaluktot
color = kulay
traffic light = ilaw trapiko
egg = itlog
pet = alaga
bed = kama
to put = ilagay
other = iba
room = silid
former = dating
they like to sleep there = gusto nilang doon matulog

I also encountered the Tagalog song "Leron Leron Sinta" in this lesson. These are some new words from it (most of the words in that song are new to me :P). I'm not even going to bother putting anything in spoiler tags in this case since I have enough trouble reviewing the vocabulary I posted in the Tagalog thread, let alone any of the vocab I've posted in this one:

(my) love = sinta
young coconut = buko
young papaya = buko ng papaya
basket = buslo
to carry = dala
in which to place = sisidlan
at the end = sa dulo
broken = bali
branch = sanga

stingy = kuripot
spendthrift(y) = gastador
nice, kind = mabait
naughty = salbahe
ugly = pangit
strong = malakas
weak = mahina
rich = mayaman
difficult = mahirap
happy = masaya
sad = malungkot
lazy = tamad
thin = payat
fat = mataba
to converse = usap
clothes = suot
to wear = magsuot
surprise, puzzlement = taka
wondrous = nakapagtataka
smart = matalino
is arriving = dumarating
the teacher is good/skillful = mahusay ang titser
sound, tone = tunog

No, I'm already home.
I'll catch up hopefully.

Vijay, can you slow down your pace a little?

Can we revive this group? I'd like to start re-leaning Tagalog, and I'm good with going through seasite.
