Hey there, Lim!
My nationality is Filipino (Philippines) 🇵🇭 and I speak English at the most, but I can do a little Tagalog (Filipino) and some other dialects from the country.

There are some 120 to 187 languages spoken in the Philippines, depending on the method of classification. Almost all are Malayo-Polynesian languages native to the archipelago. A number of Spanish-influenced creole varieties generally called Chavacano are also spoken in certain communities. The 1987 constitution designates Filipino, a standardized version of Tagalog, as the national language and an official language along with English. Filipino is regulated by Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (Commission of the Filipino Language) and serves as a lingua franca used by Filipinos of various ethnolinguistic backgrounds.
