    I play in a Filipino basketball league and it's on par with what I hear from my Filipino-Canadian buddies. I don't know enough to know how good or bad your accent is though. But it seems almost too easy/seamless when you go from Tagalog to English and vice versa, which would make me think you have a heavy American accent when you speak Tagalog.

    I am no Tagalog expert, but I can hear some American English influence in your voice.

    Here's my English:


    ..I guess for the most part I have an American accent, perhaps with a little Asian twang mixed in of which seems to come and go lol.

    (I moved to the American Midwest @ the age of 3 and grew up there, only within the past recent years having moved back to the islands where I was born)
