Filipino Filipino CCL practice
8 original English and Filipino dialogues in the CCL style, each cut into short segments with a model interpretation, plus a word list of 103 terms by topic. Read a segment, interpret it aloud, then check the model. Filipino is one of NAATI's CCL test languages1.
Original Filipino practice, written with AI. The real CCL is audio, so pair this with listening practice. Scenes are made up: names, prices and rules in them are for practice, not advice.

What does NAATI expect in Filipino?
- NAATI applies its two general rules to Filipino: allowances for regional variation, and no penalty for English words that Filipino speakers commonly use2.
- Still, avoid heavy Taglish where a plain Filipino word exists.
- Match the speaker's formality: keep po and opo when a client speaks respectfully1.
How should you practise with these?
- Read the scene line, then interpret each segment aloud, in the first person3.
- Open the model only after you have spoken.
- In drill mode, hide the text and start before the 5-second ring closes13.
