An explanation of Austronesian Alignment, also known as the Austronesian Focus System or Philippine-type voice system, using Tagalog grammar as an example. The video shows a sentence with different nouns in focus plus changes to the verb.
Hopefully, speakers of Austronesian languages that do not have Austronesian Alignment will have a glimpse into how the ancestral language functioned.
Also please excuse my accent :)
