Why is German the national language of Switzerland?
Why is Chinese the national language of China?
Why is Hindi the national language of India?
filipino is the national language of the philippines.
The change in attitude towards Filipino and calling it Tagalog will not simply disappear.
But the time will come especially when those non-Tagalogs themselves lose the inhibitions to use Filipino so that they will contribute words that will become part of the national language.
If this happens, perhaps, calling the national language of the Philippines as Tagalog will then be forgotten.
Tagalog isn’t the national language. Filipino is & it is based on Tagalog & borrows words from other common languages such as English, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, German etc.
The reason it is the basis for the national language is because it is the language of the capital & most people around the Philippines know it. It hasn’t got the largest native speaking contingent but it has the largest overall speaking contingent.
Last time I heard it’s FILIPINO.
yeah right Filipino the national language but if you check the Philippine alphabet the letter "F" is nowhere.
in spelling alone things are confusing and strange in the Philippines what more in much large issues?
to answer the question, the business development started in Manila where trade and commerce to the outside world emanate from there. many historical events also happened in Manila. education and infrastructures flourished. until politicians decided to make Tagalog/Pilipino/Filipino or whatever you call it becomes the national language.
i’m a Cebuano speaking i just wish however that when Magellan came trade and commerce could have started and civilization expands in the Visayas. but it didn’t happened unfortunately. though the oldest university is in Cebu and the oldest church is in Bohol.
g’day
Because Manila is the capital of the Philippines, and Manila becomes the heart of Trade and Industry. It so happens that Manila is in Tagalog speaking region.
because its awesome and cool like ice!!!
sa totoo lang eh taglish na ang salita ng mga pilipino, nakakahiya nga dahil hindi sila marunong magsalita ng purong tagalog o purong ingles, makikita mo na lang sa telebisyon, una magi- ingles pero sa ending eh itatagalog kase naubusan ng ingles, minsan masakit ang katotohanan at napakasensitibo ang mga pilipino, ayaw makinig sa napupuna ng iba, nauuna ang kayabangan
Filipino, not tagalog is the national language of the Philippines.
These two are different.
Tagalog is not the national language of the Philippines, currently anyway. Filipino is the official one, alongside English.
Filipino is based on Tagalog (as you know) since Tagalog is a lingua franca, like how Mandarin is in China.
Because that’s the native language of the semi-dictator Manuel Quezon.
Wikang Pilipino is the Philippines’ National Language as declared by the Ama ng Wika, Pangulong Manuel Luis Quezon during the Commonwealth Regime.
But Filipino becomes the National Language wherein if you will spell out university in Filipino, it is spelled out as unibersidad unlike in Tagalog, it is Pamantasan.
Yes, that is true. But people in Visayas, Mindanao and Palawan can speak tagalog too. Not everyone though, but most of them can and they do speak tagalog. Because there are over 80 dialects here in the Philippines, tagalog became the universal language because almost every Filipino can speak in Tagalog or fluent in tagalog. The Filipino (Tagalog) subject is a part of the curriculum at schools and colleges.
