President Trump needs a vacation. He seems sick, or just tired. You can't blame him...

What the heck is "Tagalog"? Language spoken in the Phillipines. Many of my Filipino friends speak that language. Looking it up: Tagalog ( /t?'g??l?g/) [6] Tagalog pronunciation: [t?'ga?log]) is an Austronesian language spoken as a first language by a quarter of the population of the Philippines and as a second language by the majority. [7] [8]Its standardized form, officially named Filipino, is the national language of the Philippines, and is one of two official languages alongside English. It is related to other Philippine languages, such as the Bikol languages, Ilocano, the Visayan languages, Kapampangan, and Pangasinan, and more distantly to other Austronesian languages, such as the Formosan languages of Taiwan, Malay ( Malaysian and Indonesian), Hawaiian, Maori, and Malagasy. en.wikipedia.org

I see you have 4 Replies, so I may edit this after I post. The CA sos says In every statewide election, California prepares voter information pamphlets in ten languages — English, Spanish, Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Tagalog, Thai and Vietnamese — for over 20 million registered voters.

Tagalog is the primary Filippino language used as their national language. Its mainly spoken in the North island. Other parts of the Philippine islands speak local dialects and resist learning the northern island language. They also learn English. I remember a filippino guy on a flight claiming that their nation was the second largest population in the world that also spoke English. This was back about 30 or 40 years ago. There are something like 5000 islands in the Philippines and almost as many languages. My first wife grew up over there in the central Vasayan islands and spoke Kinerian, Illongo, Vasayian, English, and studied Tagalog but hated it as was the local custom. Most California ballots I have seen in Santa Clara typically have Korean, Japanese, Mandarian, Cantonese, Indian, Thai, Malaysian, Russian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Jewish, and a bunch of others that I don't remember. God Bless the multicultural bay area, hope it stays there, and all learn how to speak like native Californians.
