		The language, a member of the Austronesian languages, is a standardized dialect of Tagalog.
		Whether the Filipino language should be based on Tagalog is not stated, although a large number of people assumed that the Filipino language is the same as (or at least be based on) the Pilipino language, which was the national language at that time and was clearly defined to be based on Tagalog.
		The problem with this view is linguistically, the Philippine languages are not dialects of the same language, but are languages in their own right, each being mutually unintelligible from the others.

		But the fact remains that majority of Filipinos in the Philippines will just go on with their everyday lives communicating in a language (Taglish or what not) that helps them carry on with their pragmatic concerns.
		In my opinion, language is primarily a social tool for communication -- choose one or more to help you express yourself, get what you want, negotiate your everyday life, or appreciate culture, etc. As long as you are able to communicate, that is the most important thing.
		Maybe in 500 years or so, the issue of a national language is no longer relevant: there is a large permutation of possibilities that could happen concerning the fate of what we now know as the Philippines.

		The replacement of English and the shift to Filipino as the national lingua franca was easy because the variety of language, a mixture of Filipino, English, and the local language, known as Taglish did/does not require schooling nor reading and writing; the rules of acceptability are loose.

		They may neither know that their very identity as Filipinos in their own native language is deliberately and grossly being disfigured and turned into a vile caricature of what the original Filipino really is in all that is dignity, truth and decorum.
		With regard to language, it is pretty evident that they can not do anything else except shamefully and slavishly agree to even the vile ramming into Tagalog of the English-Taglish Alphabet to the poverty of the Public and Private School teachers and to the confusion of the Filipino children and students under them.
		The French language academicians would not even allow the use of English words to mix into their French language out of dignity, self respect and national identity and sovereignty.
