What it actually is

A free blog that explains the hard parts of Tagalog properly — verb focus and affixes, the ang/ng distinction, ligatures, aspect — at more length and with better examples than most video lessons manage. It is a useful second opinion when one explanation has not clicked. The accompanying podcast stopped after ten episodes in 2020 and new articles are infrequent, so treat the site as a reference archive.
