TRANSLATION:



Listen to How to Say...

"How Old Are You?" in Tagalog




Ilang taon ka na?
How old are you? (casual)
Do NOT use when addressing an older person.

Ilang taon na po kayo?
How old are you? (formal)
This second-person plural form is the most common way of
asking someone's age in a formal situation.


Ilang taon na po sila?
How old are you? (very formal)
This third-person plural form is an extremely polite version.
Not common; might create confusion.





gulang
years old

Ako ay labing-anim na gulang.
=Ako'y labing-anim na gulang.
I am 16 years old.

Using gulang and Tagalog numbers to say your age is old-fashioned.
Most Filipinos prefer to use Spanish-derived words to say their age.

anyos
years old

bente anyos (from the Spanish 'veinte')
twenty years old

Bente anyos (na) po ako.
I'm 20 years old (already).

The po makes it polite. Use this when speaking to older people.
With people your age or younger, just say the Spanish number and then anyos.



Ilang taon ka na?
How old are you?

Kwarenta. Kwarenta anyos na ako. (from the Spanish 'cuarenta')
Forty. I'm forty years old already.

Saying na ('already') makes it colloquial and not stilted.



If you don't know how to say numbers in Spanish, use the English and then 'years old.'
That's what Filipinos do. Tone down your accent and they'll understand you.




Better pronunciation videos with more examples will be uploaded soon.

Ilang taon na siya?
How old is he/she?


edad
age

Anong edad mo noon?
What was your age at the time?


magkasing-edad
to be of the same age

Magkasing-edad kami.
He/She and I are of the same age

Magkasing-edad tayo.
You and I are of the same age

Magkasing-edad sila.
They are of the same age
