What Is a Gerund? Not just "ing"

In this episode, we’re talking about harana—the classic Filipino serenade that’s all about love, courage, and respect. We’ll follow Nestor’s story, a shy guy who takes a leap of faith to sing his heart out for someone special.

Let’s chat about what makes harana so special, how it shows Filipino values, and how we can still see its vibe in the way we show love today. Whether you’re learning Tagalog or just curious about Filipino culture, this one’s for you!

Hit follow and share this episode with your friends—let’s keep the spirit of harana alive! 

 Ps. Supposedly, this is a video haha.
