Kumusta, lahat. Ako si Esther.
00:02
And in this video, we're going to talk about  how to describe the cost or price of something.

At sa video na ito,
pag-uusapan natin
kung paano ilarawan ang halaga o presyo ng isang bagay.
00:09
Now, this is important to people  like me who like shopping, right. 
2

Ngayon, ito ay mahalaga sa mga taong tulad ko
na mahilig mag-shopping, di ba.
00:14
So, for example, I like  shopping especially for dresses. 
3
14880
4480
Kaya, halimbawa,
gusto kong mamili lalo na para sa mga damit.
00:19
So I might say the cost of  this dress is affordable. 
4
19360
6080
Kaya masasabi kong abot-kaya ang halaga ng damit na ito.
00:25
Okay. This dress is affordable. 
5
25440
3760
Sige.
Affordable ang damit na ito.
00:29
‘affordable’ means that this  dress is not too expensive. 
6
29200
5360
Ang ibig sabihin ng 'affordable'
ay hindi masyadong mahal ang damit na ito.
00:34
I have enough money and I can pay for this dress. I have enough money. 
7
34560
5760
Mayroon akong sapat na pera
at maaari kong bayaran ang damit na ito.
Mayroon akong sapat na pera.
00:40
I can buy this dress. So I would say this dress is affordable. 
8
40320
8000
Mabibili ko itong damit.
So I would say,
affordable ang damit na ito.
00:48
I can also say this dress is inexpensive. We all know what expensive is but we say  
9
48320
9200
Masasabi ko rin,
ang damit na ito ay mura.
Alam naman nating lahat kung ano ang mahal
pero sabi natin mura
00:57
inexpensive so that's the opposite of expensive. 
10
57520
5680
kaya kabaliktaran yan ng mahal.
01:03
‘affordable’ and ‘inexpensive’  have very similar meanings. 
11
63200
5280
Ang 'abot-kaya' at 'mura'
ay may magkatulad na kahulugan.
01:08
Again, I have enough money to buy this. It's not too expensive. 
12
68480
6640
Muli, mayroon akong sapat na pera upang bilhin ito.
Hindi naman masyadong mahal.
01:15
Then, we have ‘cheap’. This dress is cheap. 
13
75120
4560
Tapos, meron tayong 'cheap'.
Mura ang damit na ito.
01:19
Now, ‘cheap’ is similar, it means it's not  expensive, but it's a little bit more negative. 
14
79680
7280
Ngayon, ang 'mura' ay magkatulad,
nangangahulugan ito na hindi ito mahal,
ngunit ito ay medyo mas negatibo.
01:26
If you say that something is cheap,  people may think that the quality  
15
86960
5440
Kung sasabihin mong mura ang isang bagay,
maaaring isipin ng mga tao na ang kalidad ay hindi masyadong maganda.
01:32
is not very good. It's not very nice. 
16
92400
3440
Hindi ito masyadong maganda.
01:35
Okay. Now, let's look at the opposite. 
17
95840
3308
Sige.
Ngayon, tingnan natin ang kabaligtaran.
01:39
The opposite of these words is ‘expensive’. This dress is expensive.
18
99148
5732
Ang kabaligtaran ng mga salitang ito ay 'mahal'.
Mahal ang damit na ito.
01:44
It costs a lot of money, and too much money. Maybe, I don't want to buy it. 
19
104880
6120
Nagkakahalaga ito ng maraming pera,
at masyadong maraming pera.
Siguro, ayoko bumili.
01:51
We can also say ‘overpriced’. This dress is overpriced. 
20
111040
6400
Masasabi rin nating 'overpriced'.
Overpriced ang damit na ito.
01:57
That means the price is too high. 
21
117440
3040
Ibig sabihin ay masyadong mataas ang presyo.
02:00
So, again, I don't want to buy this  dress, it's too expensive and overpriced. 
22
120480
6880
So, again, ayoko bumili ng dress na ito,
sobrang mahal at overpriced.
02:07

Okay, so in this video, we learned that when we want to describe the cost of something,
38
213520
6888
Okay,
kaya sa video na ito, natutunan namin
na kapag gusto naming ilarawan ang halaga ng isang bagay,
03:40
as not too expensive,
39
220408
2661
bilang hindi masyadong mahal,
03:43
we say ‘affordable’.
40
223069
1971
sinasabi namin ang 'affordable'.
03:45
Okay. Something is affordable if it's not too expensive. 
41
225040

Sige.
Ang isang bagay ay abot-kaya kung ito ay hindi masyadong mahal.
03:50
If I can buy it with the money I have.
42
230080
3703
Kung mabibili ko ito gamit ang pera na mayroon ako.
03:53
On the other hand, if something is not affordable,
43
233783
3779
Sa kabilang banda,
kung ang isang bagay ay hindi abot-kaya,
03:57
if the cost is very high,
44
237562
2167
kung ang halaga ay napakataas,
03:59
we  say ‘expensive’ or ‘overpriced’.
45
239729
3791
sinasabi natin na 'mahal' o 'overpriced'.
04:03
For me, I think some brands like  H&M and Forever 21 are affordable. 
46
243520
7108
Para sa akin, sa tingin ko
ay abot-kaya ang ilang brand tulad ng H&M at Forever 21.
04:10
Some people don't think this way. They think it's cheap. 
47
250628
3820
Ang ilang mga tao ay hindi nag-iisip sa ganitong paraan.
Iniisip nila na ito ay mura.
04:14
Sometimes, yes, some of the items can be cheap.
48
254448
3748
Minsan, oo, ang ilan sa mga item ay maaaring mura.
04:18
But for me, I like those brands because they are affordable.
49
258196
4282
Pero para sa akin, gusto ko yung mga brand na yun kasi affordable.
04:22

Zara or Jara ang tawag sa Korea sabi nga nila.
04:29
They have some items that are affordable and some items that are very expensive.

at ilang mga bagay na napakamahal.
