CT Lesson 31 - How to say I am confused in Tagalog




Have you had a complex Math problem, and wander why Mathematics was invented anyway? That's our old school joke on High School. Can 3.14 buy a candy? If you're riding a jeep will you say "Please stop 45 degree south at (30,45). Or x sub 2 minus x sub 1 equals 5 plus my grocery? Of course we wouldn't say that, shall we?

But more than mind bugling formulas, Math helps to mold our logic and character? How? Because we overcome our childishness to go tantrums after a disappointment and resolve to try answering again. We learn to cope up with our mistake and study what-went-wrong and how to solve it better next time. But still I'm cool with algebras but not the complex ones.

Here's how to say I am confused.

    I    am  confused
(Ako)  +  (nalilito)

Nalilito comes from the root word lito or confuse. Please stop at 45 degree south? Don't we have here GPS or a tracking device? Here what to do when riding a jeep at Lesson 6.
