Great Little Carrying Guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This is one of the two best books on Tagalog I have in my collection. Though TAGALOG-ENGLISH DICTIONARY by Carl R. Galvez Rubini is by far the best and most comprehensive Tagalog-English dictionary I have ever seen to date, this little pocket sized phrasebook is great for carrying on you while traveling. Ofcourse due to size don't expect it to be as complete as a full size dictionary, but you will be very satisfied for all the content it has and still fits in your shirt or back pocket. It starts off with Tagalog basic grammar and how to pronounce the vowels in a very easy to understand manner, which is extremely helpful to say the words correctly. It has a nice 2-way dictionary, a lot of common phrases, Filipino food dishes, Holiday dates, crossword puzzles and much more general info which is handy while traveling to the Philippines. There's also an assortment of fast fact boxes through out the pages which I found very interesting. I was very impressed with so much information in such a small book, not to mention the cheap price. I have been traveling to the Philippines for 6 years now and I still carry this neat little book with me. All in all, I think this is a great little phrasebook and worth every penny.

If you are a non-Tagalog traveling to the Philippines, this book is a must. A concise dictionary, lots of useful phrases organized by topic, a pronunciation guide, even an introduction to Filipino grammar! Small size makes it easy to carry.

This is a useful pocket sized book that has mostly common (and some not so common) words you might need while travelling. It is divided into themes and even at the end there are some crosswords to "use what you learned". It also uses accent marks to help pronounce the words correctly. It is a "neat" little book!
