Then when I learned how to read Filipino, she stopped telling me stories and gave me the book instead. :)<br /><br />The story was immortalized in a kundiman. You can look it up on Youtube.

I don't think I've ever heard of this story though, but I honestly didn't pay too much attention during Filipino anyway. :-D#Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05932916193105369896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4418824797866765810.post-31445270591087564512012-02-02T23:01:05.484+08:002012-02-02T23:01:05.484+08:00Ahm, Hess.

If the teacher would assign a homework in Pamana ng Lahi, shouldn't it be in Filipino? <br /><br />At that time, I wasn't introduced yet to Nancy Drew so the characters in Pamana ng Lahi were my companions. They were kept inside a cabinet when Nancy and the Hardy Boys came. Thanks for dropping by. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11686318765423905087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4418824797866765810.post-10579079382266163792012-02-02T19:34:38.324+08:002012-02-02T19:34:38.324+08:00I remember "Pamana ng Lahi." My element...I remember "Pamana ng Lahi." My elementary school library had several copies of this book, enough for an entire class of 50. Teachers, who apparently are ill-prepared (or maybe not!), would pull out this book for the class to read the whole period. It fascinates me now that I can't recall any of the stories from that book...perhaps, because it is written in Filipino.<br /><br />I offer a few end-of-the-story questions, if this were a textbook. "OK, class, answer the 'Questions to Ponder.' Assignment will be due on Monday..."<br /><br />1. What brought these lovers to the abandoned church?<br />2. How do people in those days celebrate for a week?<br />3. How would have the story ended if the lovers succeeded in killing themselves?<br /><br />LOL :-)JHBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11086364205407906505noreply@blogger.com
