LIVESesame Street - Tamir Learns Tagalog
TJ is excited to meet his favorite comic book artist Bobby Manalo and wants to do something kind for him. Mr. Manalo's family is Filipino just like TJ's. Both of their families come from the Philippines and Filipino families like TJ's give gifts to make someone feel welcome. TJ wishes he could draw comic books; he'd make one for Mr. Manalo. Tamir offers to help TJ draw the comic book and TJ comes up with the story. While working on the comic book together, Tamir also learns to say a few words in Tagalog like hello and thank you, to say something to Bobby Manalo to make him feel welcome too. It's time for the comic book signing. Tamir feels nervous that he might forget how to say the words, but Chris explains that it's okay if he forgets. The important thing is that he's trying his best and learning to speak someone else's language is a really great way to show you care. TJ and Tamir finally meet Bobby Manalo and give their comic book gift to make him feel welcome.
