All Saints Street - Ch. 1 - Kamusta sa Lahat, Ako ay si Neil Bowman

The tagalog isn't fluent. There is no word such as 'kamusta'. 'Kumusta' is the right word
 
I mean, you're right that 'kumusta' is the correct word, but 'kamusta' is used colloquially and interchangeably. It would be incorrect if it's a formal, written paper, but I believe it's fine if it's dialogue since that's a person talking. I will agree that there are other parts where it's not fluent and sounds weird.
 
Hello, the translator here ^^ I will note the word, "kumusta" for next time. I'd like to give some insight: Filipino isn't my mother tongue and am translating this manhua for a couple reasons: 1) For fun! I just love this series so much and 2) to practice and strengthen my Filipino. I do hope to improve in the future so I'm open to all criticism here. I just think it would be nice to inform everyone about this as a disclaimer since the weird phrasing may be present in my translations lol.
