About this listen
You’ve decided to learn Tagalog - great choice!
Tagalog, also known as Filipino, isn’t an easy language to learn. Mostly due to the absolute lack of reading material out there, you can find it quite tough to learn this language spoken by around 24 million people in the Philippines and around the world.
But we’re about to change that with Tagalog Short Stories for Beginners! By providing you with 20 easy-to-understand, compelling, and fun stories that will give you the tools that you require to learn the language, get ready to expand your vocabulary and improve your grasp of the wonderful Filipino tongue.
How Tagalog Short Stories for Beginners works:
- Each chapter possesses a funny, interesting and thought-provoking story based on real-life situations, allowing you to learn a bit more about the Filipino culture.
- Next up, you will find a summary in Tagalog and in English of what you just listened to, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood what the tale was about. Use them if you’re having trouble.
- At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with a list of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have understood at first glance! Don’t get lost trying to understand or pronounce it all, either, as all of the vocabulary words are translated for your ease of use!
- Finally, you’ll be provided with a set of tricky questions in Tagalog, allowing you the chance to prove that you learned something in the story. Whether it’s true or false, or if you’re doing the single answer questions, don’t worry if you don’t know the answer to any - we will provide them immediately afterwards, but no cheating!
We want you to feel comfortable while learning the tongue; after all, no language should be a barrier for you to travel around the world and expand your social circles!
So look no further! Pick up your copy of Tagalog Short Stories for Beginners, and level up your Tagalog language learning right now!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Tagalog language? You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy. In fact, the toughest part of learning Tagalog is knowing how to speak like a native. Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language, and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.

Jose Rizal’s two novels Noli Me Tangere and its sequel El Filibusterismo are beloved classics in The Philippines. Here, they are read with characteristic flair by Academy-Award Nominee Richard E. Grant, who apart from his work in Film and TV, is well-loved by audiobook listeners. It might be fiction, but it is also Philippine history. Rizal travelled to Europe as a student and wrote these books there under difficult circumstances. His friends helped ship them back to Manila where the books were swiftly banned by the Spanish authorities.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Tagalog language? You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy. In fact, the toughest part of learning Tagalog is knowing how to speak like a native. Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language, and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.

Great resource for Tagalog immersion
The audio book Tagalog Short Stories for Beginners is a must-have supplement to its Kindle counterpart. In the dire situation with Tagalog language resources for beginners and intermediates this audio book + kindle book are gems. The language used in the book is reasonably plain and simple. It's not street Tagalog, mind you, but good, proper language. At the same time it's easily usable in a day-to-day conversation. The level is not suitable for early beginners, but if you are already comfortable with Tagalog grammar and have a decent vocabulary, this is a great bridge to the native-level resources. The audio quality is good. The voice actor has done other recordings for Tagalog language learning materials, and articulates it very well, but without sounding like a textbook. Very important for an immersive style reading! Overall this is a great find and I can't wait for the next one in the series!
