[An-lang] Searching for a Tagalog/ Filipino corpus

[Laurie Reid]

Curt McFarland who published extensively on Tagalog verbs and other
structures had a large corpus of Tagalog texts. I don't know where or if it
is available. Curt retired with his wife several years ago from his
professorship at Waseda University in Tokyo, and is living somewhere in the
outskirts of Manila. I no longer have his email address or where he can be
contacted. Any help from anyone would be appreciated.
