Tagalog Learning Log - colour, to have


   Borrowed from another website. please see Learning Pilipino.com   


Rule: :Tagalog has a different word order. It seems the pronoun (I or you) is between two parts gusto ... ng meaning like.

Tagalog - Gusto ko ng pula (Like I red)

English - I like red.

Tagalog - Gusto mo ng pula (Like you red)

English: You like red.


Reflection: I wonder if guosto ... ng is like a split verb. In Irish , tá ... ag seems ot work the same way as a split verb to have. 

Irish - Tá madra ag an mean. (Has dog the woman)   

English - The woman has a dog.
