Filipino is also designated, along with\u00a0English, as an\u00a0official language\u00a0of the country. It is based on the\u00a0Tagalog language,\u00a0an\u00a0Austronesian,\u00a0regional\u00a0language that is widely spoken in the Philippines. As of 2007, Tagalog is the\u00a0first language\u00a0of 28 million people, or about one-third of the\u00a0Philippine population, while 45 million speak Tagalog as their\u00a0second language. Tagalog is among the 185\u00a0languages of the Philippines\u00a0identified in the\u00a0Ethnologue. Officially, Filipino is defined by the\u00a0Commission on the Filipino Language\u00a0(Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino\u00a0in Filipino or simply KWF) as &#8220;the native dialect, spoken and written, in\u00a0Metro Manila, the National Capital Region, and in other urban centers of the archipelago.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Filipino is officially taken to be a\u00a0pluricentric language, as it is further enriched and developed by the other existing Philippine languages according to the mandate of the 1987 Constitution. Indeed, there have been observed &#8220;emerging varieties of Filipino which deviate from the grammatical properties of Tagalog&#8221; in\u00a0Cebu,\u00a0Davao City, and\u00a0Iloilo which together with Metro Manila form the four largest metropolitan areas in the Philippines.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Source: Wikipedia<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Is it useful to learn?
