Tagalog Verb Dictionary Paperback – March 21, 2011

Wow... just minutes after downloading this book to my Kindle Fire, I realized how great this book was going to be for me.It does what so many Tagalog-learning books don't do, and that is - it offers you extensive insight on common sentence structures and verb conjugations. For that reason alone, its a very, very helpful book for intermediate Tagalog students. Trust me; Verb conjugations can get quite complex, but this book simplifies it for you.I highly applaud the author for releasing this book to help students like me who are learning the language. Its an absolute must-have for foreigners and non-Tagalog Filipinos.

I am finding this verb dictionary very useful in my study to learn Tagalog. As it resides on my Kindle, I can take it with me when I travel giving me quick access to its contents when need be.

The print is too small for this book and is difficult to read. I purchased the kindle version and found it to be much readable. However, the kindle version is not much better. There is no formatting. The English word to be translated is sometimes in bold and sometimes not. There should be a space between the conjugations to tell you that a new word is about to be conjugated. Instead text just runs on and on

So much easier to use than the other Verb Dictionary that got a better rating for some reason. The one with the green cover is terrible.

Buy the paperback and not the e-book version. All the text runs together in the e-book version.

The introduction of this book is okay. However when you start going through the verbs and the sentences, you start to wonder how this book ever got published with ALL the obvious mistakes: spelling, grammar, etc. My colleagues and I thought this was a handy good resource in teaching verbs at first. As we browsed through the pages, we found so many grave errors that any native speaker can easily notice. It could have been possible that the authors used google translate? This book needs to be reviewed by an experienced Tagalog/Filipino language teacher. It also needs a lot of proofreading; syllable was spelled "syllabul' many times, etc. The sample sentences in English do not even make sense, and a colleague shared that they are "semantically inappropriate." It is a mortal sin to buy this book and recommend it to others as an excellent resource. However if you want a book to use as a workbook or an exercise to identify the wrong sentences & then correct them, then it is a good buy.
