Filipino Survival Phrases Lesson 49 - How's the weather in the Philippines.
Whether or not the weather will cooperate is an important question on which many plans are made and canceled. In this lesson, we'll cover a phrase that will help you finalize your plans if they depend on the weather.
In Filipino, "What will the weather be tomorrow?" is Ano ang panahon bukas?
Ano ang panahon bukas?
Let's break it down by syllable: Ano ang panahon bukas?
Now, let's hear it once again: Ano ang panahon bukas?
The first word Ano means "what."
Let's break down this word and hear it one more time: Ano.
And, Ano.
This is followed by Ang, which in English is "the."
Ang.
Ang.
And, Ang.
Followed by Panahon, which means "weather."
Panahon.
Let's break down this word and hear it one more time: Panahon.
And, Panahon.
Followed by Bukas, which in English means "tomorrow."
Bukas.
Let's break down this word and hear it one more time: Bukas.
And, Bukas.
So, to recap here, we have Ano ang panahon bukas? which means "What will the weather be tomorrow?"
Let's go over the possible answers. In Filipino, "It will rain" is Uulan.
Uulan.
And, Uulan.
In Filipino, "It will be sunny" is Maaraw.
Maaraw.
And, Maaraw.
In Filipino, "There is a typhoon" is May bagyo.
May bagyo.
And, May bagyo.
In case you're somewhere where the weather can change very quickly, in Filipino, "What will the weather be today?" is Ano ang panahon ngayon?
Ano ang panahon ngayon?
Let's break it down by syllable: Ano ang panahon ngayon?
Now, let's hear it once again: Ano ang panahon ngayon?
The weather plays a big role in planning out our activities when traveling. It is not ideal to go to the beach if the weather is rainy. But when the sun is shining, it is the perfect time to get our sunblock and hit off the beach to swim. December is usually the start of the summer season and ends in mid-May. And from then on, the rainy season. During the summer season, the Philippine weather is literally hot.
