[quote=CDMA ENG][quote=eyePod]Filipinos do not speak Spanish, it’s not worth mentioning, at least not if your talking about 2011.[/quote]

Wrong. My inlaws were trained since elementary school in spanish. They are not fluent but they do know more words than most people living next to the border. In fact many common words that are used in Tagalog are spanish words.

The Tagalog language including the other dialects use plenty spanish however these days english has replaced spanish in schools but there is some much spanish words in the Tagalog language that it will never be replaced.

Sorry, that is incorrect. The original comment was about what is language #1, 2, and 3 for filipinos. by your definition most native born californians speak spanish, ha ha. So we are talking about reasonable fluency. That doesn’t include loan words, historical yearning, or school study. #2 is definitely English. If you care to show some facts we can discuss.
