Too much Jollibee? Enjoying the halo-halo? Drinking too much Coke? We don't mind, but your insensitive and blunt friends might. In today's lesson, our happy but unlucky chubby friend gets a not-so-friendly verbal jab from a girl. Watch the drama (or lack of it) unfold as Cris and Mickey discuss the finer points. Special guest appearance by our Korean friend Kim.

A: Grabe! Ang taba mo na!
B: Ha? Ano?
A: Ang taba mo na! Dapat magdiet ka na!
B: Aray. Salamat.

Translation:
A: Oh wow! You've gotten so fat!
B: Huh?? What??
A: You've gotten so fat! You should go on a diet!
B: Ouch. Thanks..

Whether you're hopping around our 7,107 islands or hanging out with one of the millions of Filipinos worldwide, KalyeSpeak can help you speak your mind freely!

KalyeSpeak is practical, fun, even entertaining at times. We will not bore you with textbook dictation and miles and miles of memorization. Our lessons get right down to the vernacular -- just as how it is spoken in the street. This way, you can rule shopping, watch what you eat, and even delight that cute little Filipina on the beach.

Learn Filipino, as Filipinos speak it.

Thanks to the genuises of Chinesepod (John P, Ken, and Jenny Zhu) and Spanishpod (JP -- who is Pinoy btw -- and Lili) for being our inspirations and idols! You guys changed online language learning for everyone!
