If you are really interested, hindi ka mahihirapan.
I have learned lots of dialects as well as languages...in the passage of time...with lots of practice, u will be able to converse with people.
O siya, success with your endeavor...
BTW...here's a beautiful love song...perhaps ur bf knows this...
Malinak lay labi, Oras lay mareen
Mapalpalnay dagem, Katekep toy linaew
Samit day kugip ko, Binangonan kon tampol
Lapu'd say linggas mo, Sikan-sikay amamayoen
Refrain:
Lalo la bilay no sika lay nanengneng
Napunas lan amin so ermin ya akbibiten
No nanonotan ko lay samit day ugalim
Agtaka nalingwanan anggad kaoyos na bilay.
Repeat refrain.
And here's the English translation with added lyrics to be spoken before the song.
a night piece
a personal translation from a Pangasinan serenade entitled "Malinac Lay Labi"
( Your eyes excelled the morning sun
Your smile laden my breast with flame
I'll boast upon that lilting sun
Your beauty worthy of a name
O what shall I give but a song
A song to sing my love for you
A song to time and space belong
Until the world is born anew )
(Here is the song translation)
The night is calm my love
And time is fleeting still
The wind is breathing low
Kissed by the evening dew
How sweet it is to dream
That I have to wake for you
Your fair attemper face
I shall always caress
O when the night is come
And you my love I see
The sadness all is gone
Buried deeply in my soul
Whenever I recall
Loving ways you are wont to
I shall not forget you
Till I am laid to rest
