Tagalog Numbers
Can anyone help me with tagalog numbers? Can anyone explain to me the basics? I'm filipino but I don't know that well because I talk in my dialect not tagalog.
What is 100 in tagalog? or 50? 1,000?
please clarify the "put"/"pung"? what is this? do u put this with the number all the time??

100 in tagalog is isangdaan
50 is limampu
1000 is isang libo
isa = 1 (one)
libo = thousand
daan = hundred
pu = tens place
ex: 5000 = limang libo
500 = limangdaan
50 = limang pu or limampu
(ng is usually added to the tagalog term of the number and when the tagalog term for the number ends with a vowel a e i o u)
na is added when it ends with a consonant
ex: 4 = apat (four)
40 = apat na pu
"put" is used this way:
PU AT = pu't
44 = apatnaPU'T apat
"pung" is used this way;
ex: ~ 40 chickens ~
translation: apatnaPUNG manok
*40 = apatnapu
*chickens = manok
pung or adding of -ng is used to indicate the number of chickens in this case.
I hope it helped.
Good luck!
