As i said, im filipino.. but i cant speak the tagalog language and i would reeeaaally like to learn how. I am hearing all of my family members speak tagalog and i can sort of understand, i know words, but i dont know how to use it in a sentence, and i cant really have a tagalog conversation with someone. What is the best way for me to learn Tagalog online, that is FREE? And i cant get Rosetta Stone.

Please help me out!
Def. Choosing best answer..

I know that the Philippines constitution changed the official language to be known as Filipino, which is based off Tagalog, but are there any major real differences? If Filipino is based off Tagalog, is Tagalog based off another language such as Latin-based or Malay-based?

I ask this because I've seen Filipino-Americans arguing over this. I've noticed how some people point out that the official Filipino languages uses certain letters that are absent with the actual Tagalog language.

Then there was this big argument in class where one person from the Philippines said that Filipino is the Official language and not Tagalog...while a Filipino-American kept saying "no it's Tagalog! since it's based off Tagalog...therefore Tagalog is still the official language"!

I also saw some kids arguing about it too, one set of kids kept calling it Filipino while others kept saying "it's Tagalog". Some have said "FILIPINO isn't even a language, it's TAGALOG!"

There seems to be a lot of confusion with Filipino identity in the U.S., and the language is part of it.

So who can give the best answer with clear and solid proof and evidence?
