GREEK FOR BEGINNERS

Hearing someone say Greek words is interesting and sounds easy, but learning it is somewhat different. Reading ang writing the Greek language can be challenging. For beginners, learning the basic greetings and goodbyes is a step, also the key is listening and practice.

ROMAN EMPEROR: BEING NICE

Being an Emperor of a great big empire, requires attitude and ability! Would a nice person succeed as a Roman Emperor?

This kind of salary in the Philippines is for Top executives or the highest pay for a Proffesor in college. Domestic work, healthcare, construction labor, skille...

But I want you to understand why the culture? One proof is their national anthem, Lupang Hinirang or known in English as Beloved Homeland. The anthem was originally Marcha Nacional Filipina or the Philippine National March. In 1898, its music was composed by Julian Felipe, however the lyrics added was originally Spanish based on a poem by Jose Palma, only on the year 1958 that it was translated to the Fililino language. What's with the anthem anyway? Does their national anthem helps them vocalized? The answer - YES! But before we jump to the reason why, let me first tell you the message of the song.
