You should use "daw" when the word it follows ends with a consonant.
You should use "raw" when the word it follows ends with a vowel (including Y and W)
Halimbawa | Example:
Madali raw mag-aral ng Tagalog. | They said (-or- According to them), it is easy to study Tagalog.
Mahirap daw mag-aral ng Tagalog. | They said (-or- According to them), it is difficult to study Tagalog.
This also applies to other similar words like: din/rin, dito/rito, doon/roon

it's a quotation particle
maganda daw sya (sabi nya) - she said she's pretty
wag ka daw pupunta dun - they said don't go there

Do I like it, do I like it or do I like it? Is it possible to use 'I like' when referring to a person or should I always use 'I like'? Also, when should https://banksnear-me.com/bank-of-america-near-me/ I use 'likes'? Is it better to use one verb with a person and another with an object? I am a little confused.
