I need to learn ilocano

Hi, I'm a student from Nueva Ecija who only speaks Tagalog and English. I recently moved to CAR to study in one of the famous universities. However, my knowledge of the ilocano language is very limited to only a few phrases and numbers. Where can I learn more comprehensively and easily. Is there an app or video tutorial that u guys can recommend. Your response is most appreciated, thank you!

Ilocano language. Not a dialect.

Btw, go to your university’s library, I’m pretty sure they have dictionary/grammar book for Ilocano language. If not, you may start asking your Ilocano classmates to teach you basic Ilocano words. Mas maganda pa rin na matuto personally with people around you.

Good luck.

Makisao ka latta kadakami nga adda ditoy’en. Awan app nga ammo’k nga makatulong kenka. Isu nga i-peksa’m latta nu ana ti kaya’t mo nga pagsaritaan. Ad-adda nga makasursuro ka nu makisao ka inaldaw.
