Mastering the Tagalog letter "NG" for native English Speakers

The best way I can explain how to master the NG sound in Tagalog is by taking one of the English words mentioned in the video (sing, wing, pong, etc.) and focus on where you feel your tongue when you make the "NG" sound of those words.

The tongue should rise in the back of your mouth as you make the "n" sound, forcing air up into your nasal cavity, and when your tongue lowers itself to make the "g" sound a small rush of air comes out of your mouth completing the sound.

Understanding where your tongue sits when you say English words with an "ng" sound will help you understand how to properly pronounce the same sound in Tagalog words.

Just practice a lot and listen to yourself and mastery will come!
