Newbs – Take Out! Pabalot!

12 06 2011

Eating out and realized that you ordered too much? That leftover lechon sure is looking good for breakfast tomorrow. But what to do, what to say? Well, in this month’s Kspeak lesson, Cris and Mickey will teach you how to say “take out!” faster than you can say “wow, sarap!” Razi, Bernice, and Jovitt also talk about “takaw mata” in the culture portion.

A: Ang dami pang tira!
B: Pabalot na lang kaya natin?
A: Sige, sabihin mo sa ate!
B: Ate, pabalot!

A: There’s so much leftovers!
B: You think we should take it home?
A: Yeah!! Tell the waitress!
B:  Miss! Please have this wrapped for take out!
