The writer used
Diacritical Marks on all accented vowels in the poems. The links
for the meanings and synonyms are provided for both Tagalog and English words
with accompanying audio to help readers and poets properly pronounce and
correctly spell the classical Tagalog words.
Diacritics are marks placed above or below (or sometimes next to) a letter in a
word to indicate a particular pronunciation - concerning accent, tone, or stress
- as well as meaning, specifically when a homograph exists without the marked
letter or letters.
The writer would like to thank Project Gutenberg for providing the original epic
Florante At Laura. Most of the poems used are of our national heroes, which are
in the public domain.
