Tagalog is just one of many languages in the Philippines; there are as many as 175 dialects spoken.
1. "Kababayan" means "countryman" or "compatriot". Interestingly, "Pare" and "mare", is what parents and godparents call each other. Not a concept easily translated in English! "Friend" in Tagalog is "kaibigan".
2. A sure-fire way to know a FIlipino? Just blurt a wild "PSSSSST!" and see whose head turns. Also, Filipinos tend to point at someone or something by pouting in that direction.

3. The Tagalog dialect is pretty easy because of its syllabification structure. One perfect example: If you want to ask, "is it going down?", just blurt out "bababa ba?"
