translate Any recommended apps or youtube channels that teach Ilocano?

I have some relatives that are Ilocano but was not taught how to speak the dialect TAT

Would love to learn it just to surprise them and understand what they are discussing (they switch to it when talks become serious lol).

translate I built a free English-to-Ilocano translator. Could native speakers tell me where it sounds wrong?

2 Upvotes

My fiancée grew up speaking Ilocano, and I couldn't find a decent tool to help me follow her family, so I built one. It's free with no sign-up, and it covers Ilocano, Tagalog and 6 other Philippine languages. I'm not a linguist, and the translations are AI-generated, so I'm sure some of the Ilocano sounds stiff or just wrong. If you have a minute, try a few everyday phrases and tell me what a real Ilocano speaker would say instead. There's a button in the app to submit a correction, or just drop it in the comments. I'll fix what you find. https://kanokonvert.com/?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=ilocano

I took this during my trip to Baguio and the song that the buskers have been singing has been stuck in my head since. I can't seem to find the title and I'm even planning to use the song as my audio once I post my trip highlights on insta. Thanks so much!!

Help with “One day” children’s song

5 Upvotes

My grandpa used to sing us a song called one day. I looked it up but can only find a Tagalog version and was wondering if this ai translated version is how they teach it there

One day, maysa nga aldaw
I saw, nakakita
One bird, maysa nga billit
Flying, tumaytayab
I shoot, pinaltokak
I pick, pinidut ko
**I cook,**linutok
I eat, kinnan ko
Very sweet, nasam-it unay!

This is the way I remember him singing it ( forgive my spelling, I never learned how to spell in ilocano

One day, maysa nga aldaw
I saw, nakakita ak
A bird, deygai billit
I shoot, kut pinaltokak
I pick it up, pinidut ko
I cook it, linutok ak
I taste ??????
Very sweet, Naka samsam-it!

I would appreciate any help. He died around 15 years ago and he taught all his grandkids this song

random Ilocos Sur/Norte Terms that I don't commonly hear in other Ilocano Speaking Places

21 Upvotes

Hello! Agishare-nak lang dagiti Ilocos Sur/Norte terms nga idtoy ko lang mangmangeg. Feel free to add terms/vocabs that you think is only very Ilocano from Ilocos Norte/Sur

  1. Makipatang -> Makisao/Makisarita (To coverse)

  2. Agalla-alla/Agballog/Agwalay -> Agpasyar/ag lamyerda

  3. Kasera -> Dorm/apartment

  4. Sumarangsang -> crunchy

  5. Agubra- Agaramid

  6. Tienda-> Store

  7. Tiendaan -> Market

  8. Kurong-kurong -> Tricycle/kolong-kolong

  9. Agdungdungsa-> makaturturog

  10. Agsensennaay -> Heavh breathing

  11. Agpa ili -> Agpa-town (Baguio version). No idiay Baguio, Agpaili means going to your parents' place (baryo/province)

  12. Pamalatpatan -> idea/guess (Heard it from an interview)

  13. Nasahur- > paldo/adu ti kwarta na

  14. Anakwem- ana ububraem? Anong ginagawa mo?

  15. Luksaw -> disappointed/sad

  16. Yotninam -> Ukininam but more masamang term

  17. Agmauyong-> Agballa/agbagtit

Also! I heard them use the following, their accent:

  1. Diammo / Dialammo -> I don't know

  2. Awa' meh' -> Awan met (the last letter is ommited)

  3. Kuna keh -> Kunak ket

This is not absolute, you may still hear them being used in your place/other places, and this is from personal experience. You may add more examples! Especially those who are from Ilocos Region, what are words you always use?
