520    Basic Tagalog takes a friendly and innovative approach, 
       emphasizing the structure of the Tagalog language rather 
       than just vocabulary. This user-friendly Tagalog textbook 
       teaches more than 2,000 Tagalog words and expressions with
       over 500 being added for this new edition. These are 
       spread throughout 44 lessons, the Appendices and the 
       exercises as well as in the Tagalog-English and English-
       Tagalog vocabulary lists at back of the book. The added 
       Tagalog vocabulary is meant to keep learners abreast of 
       changes that have occurred in the language since the first
       edition of Basic Tagalog which was published. This edition
       has retained all the grammar lessons and the tried-and-
       tested teaching methodology developed b the author, 
       Paraluman S. Aspillera, for the original version. Her 
       method has proven to be extremely effective for tens of 
       thousands of foreigners and non-Tagalogs who have used 
       this book to lean to learn Tagalog, including many who 
       have successfully learned to speak Tagalog, read Tagalog 
       and write Tagalog through self-study on their own without 
       a teacher. A succinct introduction to the language and a 
       description of the character of Filipinos will hopefully 
       provide learners with a better understanding of the 
       language they are learning. The lessons in Basic Tagalog 
       are intended for a three-month period of intensive study 
       followed by another three months of applied oral 
       communication. In six months (or about 250 hours), it is 
       expected that an average learner should be able to speak, 
       write and understand simple, everyday, conversational 
       Tagalog as spoken by most Filipinos. Highlights of this 
       book include: Over 2,000 Tagalog words and expressions. 44
       lessons organized by organized for efficient language 
       absorption. Extensive exercises and activities to 
       reinforce the lessons. Vocabulary lists serve as 
       comprehensive English-Tagalog and Tagalog-English 
       dictionaries. Completely updated and expanded with new 
       materials. Using Basic Tagalog to study the Tagalog 
       language will further encourage both non-Tagalogs and non-
       Filipinos to speak Tagalog better. Only then will they 
       appreciate the individuality of the language that reflects
       the resilience and flexibility of Filipinos all around the
       world. In the end, such learning will improve daily 
       interactions and communications between non-Filipinos and 
       Filipinos-whether in business, education, tourism, social 
       or civic endeavors.
