TAGALOG


Contents

General

Strictly speaking, Tagalog is a regional language spoken in the southern part of the Philippine islands of Luzon (including Manila, the national capital) and Mindoro. But as the official national language of the Philippine Republic, officially called Filipino or Pilipino but widely called Tagalog, it is now spoken as either first or second language by most Filipinos.

Language summary

Tagalog

Information from Ethnologue, 2009-08-13

Filipino

Information from Ethnologue, 2009-08-13

  • ISO 639-3 code: fil
  • Spoken in: Philippines (widespread).
  • Population: 25,000,000 (2007).
  • Script: Latin script.
  • Comments: Based on Tagalog with terms from other regional languages.

Linguistic notes

Tagalog syntax is dominated by a complex system of verb-argument agreement, in which any of the verb's arguments (the "trigger" or "focus") may be selected by a verbal affix.

The morphology is rich in affixation, using prefixes, suffixes, infixes, and ambifixes for derivation in nouns, adjectives, and for derivation and inflection in verbs. Reduplication is also common.

Writing

Tagalog is written in the Roman alphabet with occasional diacritics, usually those found in Spanish (á é í ó ú ñ). The orthography corresponds closely, though not perfectly, to the segmental phonology of the language. The letters c f j ñ q v x z are generally used only in loanwords and names.

The official alphabet has been revised several times during the 20th century. The official alphabet omits c f j q v x z, adds ng (considered to be a single letter) after n, and moves k to the place of c:

a b k d e g h i l m n ng o p r s t u w y

Officially ng is to be sorted after n (natin, nila, ngalan) but in many publications it is intermixed (natin, ngalan, nila).
