^"hehe" is Tagalog, right?  ;D

ok, will never use it here again..

Question: Did we just change our national language from Tagalog to Filipino?  :)

Uhm, Filipino uses the Tagalog dialect as its base form. Meaning, the National Language, Filipino, is mostly derived from Tagalog, just like Chinese which is a derivative of Mandarin. Hope this helps.  :D

What you said about Filipino and Tagalog is correct, but your statement about Chinese and Mandarin is wrong. Mandarin one of the many Chinese languages.

*facepalm* yeah sorry. I just remembered someone who told me that Chinese languages Mandarin, Cantonese, and Fukien are all derivatives of one dialect, Mandarin that is. Sorry for feeding wrong info.  ;D ;D ;D

Sometimes I wonder why some guys have hard muscles eventhough their bodies are not exposed to intense training.. Whereas there are people like me who have rounded muscles, far stronger than the former, yet have 'firm' muscles. I also knew some people who do not train and have soft muscles..

Derivatives is not the right word, because there is no "main Chinese language" that the others are derived from, just like there is no "main Filipino language" that the other Philippine languages are derived from :)
