Si Malakas at Si Maganda
(A creation myth)
In the beginning, only a bird can be seen flying between the sky and sea. When the bird grew
tired of flying, it angered the sea. The sea flew into a rage, crossed over its boundary, and
disturbed the peace in the sky. Maddened by the chaos sky began to throw rocks at sea.
As the bird rested on the rocks, its feet hit a bamboo shaft and got pricked. The bird was so
furious that it pecked at the bamboo continuously until it was split in half. Out came a man and a
woman. They were later a man and a woman. They were later known as Malakas and Maganda.
The verb in a sentence expresses action or being. There is a main verb and sometimes one
or more helping verbs. ("She can sing." Sing is the main verb; can is the helping verb.) A
verb must agree with its subject in number (both are singular or both are plural). Verbs
also take different forms to express tense.

An excerpt from
Remembering Laughter
By Conrado V. Pedroche
Mary Anne can dance, David thought, when one morning she illustrated their lesson in scansion
with her expensive hands, and when she felt she could do it more effectively standing, she stood
up and demonstrated the iambic pentameter with her long white arms waving in rhythm on one
side and her well-rounded buttocks swaying softly as she moved across the room. It was perfect
and lovely and I was entranced. I guess the whole class was.
There was thing about Mary Anne. She did not know how to get sore if she did, she seldom
showed it. She would smile at you whatever you would say. Or laugh her clean youthful
laughter. One morning in class Mary Anne was teaching the students new words. Among these
was the word presumptuous. Presumptuous, she said, means overbold, daring, audacious. Now,
can anyone used the word properly in a sentence?
I stood and said: Miss Ashborne, will it be presumptuous if I say you like a wingless angel?
The room roared with laughter and I thought Mary Anne was going to blush or something and
get really good and angry with me for my being presumptuous. But she did not. She laughed
with the boys and said: David, you slay me!
An adverb describes or modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb, but never a noun. It usually
answers the questions of when, where, how, why, under what conditions, or to what degree. Adverbs
often end in -ly.
