How to say My name is in Filipino?

The most common and direct way to say "My name is" in Filipino is:

Ang pangalan ko ay... (pronounced: ahng pahn-gah-lan koh ay...)

You can then follow it with your name. For example:

* Ang pangalan ko ay John. (My name is John.)

* Ang pangalan ko ay Maria. (My name is Maria.)

Here are some other ways to say "My name is" in Filipino, depending on the context:

* Ako ay si... (pronounced: ah-koh ay see...) - This is a more formal way to say "I am...". You can use it when addressing someone in a position of authority.

* Tawagin mo akong... (pronounced: taw-ah-gin moh ah-kong...) - This means "Call me...". You can use it when introducing yourself to someone for the first time.

It's important to note that Filipinos often use the English word "name" in conversation, so you can also simply say:

* My name is...

This is perfectly acceptable and understood in most situations.
