Tungkol sa aklat:
Magkakatulad ba ang “kahulugán,” “kabuluhán,” at “katuturán”? Ano ang kaibhan ng “munì” sa “nílay,” ng “pagtarók” sa “paghulò,” ng “hakà” sa “hinuhà”? Bakit mas matindi ang lungkot sa “pighatî” kaysa “lumbáy”? Paano tinitimbang ang “bayani” sa sinaunang balangay?
Ilan lámang ito sa sinikap ipaliwanag ni National Artist Virgilio S. Almario sa pamamagitan ng pagsasaliksik sa sinaunang bait at taal na karunungang maaaring matuklasan sa ating wika. Tinitigan lámang V.S. Almario ang ilang salitâ at kung paano ito ginámit sa ilang piraso ng akda noon, ngunit upang tanglawan sa atin ang mga mga orihinal na hálagáhan (ang pantumbas niya sa values at upang ibukod sa pagpapahalagá o appreciation) at kung paano ito binaluktot ng ating kolonyal na karanasan, at upang kung sakalì ay higit na wasto nating makasangkapan sa ating muling-pagkatha ng ating bayan. Nagsisilbi din itong panimulang pagbuo ng isang pilosopiyang pangwika at patnubay sa paglinang ng ating pambansang kasaysayan at pamumunang pangkultura.
Ang mga sanaysay sa aklat na ito ay bahagi ng pagsipat at pagtitig ni V.S. Almario sa mga potensiyal ng Filipino bílang wika ng makabayang saliksik at mga siyentipikong adhika para sa ating Wikang Pambansa.
* * * Pasasalamat sa UST Museum sa pagbabahagi ng larawan para sa pabalat, ang obrang “Woman and Boy Walking Against the Wind” (1938), gawa ng Pambansang Alagad ng Sining na si Carlos “Botong” Francisco.

FAQs

Where do you ship from?

We ship from two locations, Manila and New Jersey. Your books are always sent from wherever they are currently in stock. If an order includes books from both locations, we usually combine everything into one shipment to reduce packing waste. If you would prefer items to be sent separately, just let us know. We are happy to accommodate.

You can read our shipping policy here.

What are your shipping options?

For books shipping from New Jersey, we offer USPS Media Mail, USPS Ground Advantage, and USPS Priority Mail. For non US addresses, we ship via DHL.

For books shipping from Manila to the US, you can choose between two options.

Express: Your book ships directly to you via DHL. This is the fastest option.

No Rush: Your book is included in our regular shipment from Manila to NJ. Once it arrives in NJ, we ship it to you right away via USPS. This option takes longer but helps keep shipping costs lower.

For non US addresses, we ship via the Express option.

How can I reduce my shipping fee?

One important thing to know is that we do not make any profit on shipping. We simply charge what our couriers charge us. Because we ship in bulk, we often receive discounted rates, and we pass those savings directly on to you. Our goal is always to get your books to you as affordably and responsibly as possible.

If you are ever unsure which option to choose, or if timing matters for a specific order, please reach out. We're happy to help.

What is your return policy?

If you are not satisfied with your purchase, we will be pleased to issue store credit within 14 days of order fulfillment.

  • Sale items and gift cards are final sale.
  • We do not give refunds except in cases where we have made an error. If we made a mistake, we will rectify the error and refund reasonable return shipping expenses you incur. 
  • If you wish to cancel your online order for any reason, you will receive store credit, not a refund.

Can you help me find books not offered in your shop?

We offer a free book search service. Give us the details of the book (title, author, publisher, year) and we will look for it for you. If we find it, we will give you a quote so you can decide whether to move forward or not. There is no obligation to make the purchase.

Do you ship to my country?

Yes, we ship globally. If you do not see your country as an option at checkout, please let us know so we can make the necessary arrangements.
