I have to say that "Filipino", is the national language of the Phil. It is a refined tagalog.
Tagalog is one of the major dialects of the country, widely spoken in Northern Region, but all (at least all) Filipinos can understand and communicate using tagalog language. Languages that have made significant contributions to Tagalog are Spanish, Min Nan Chinese, English, Malay, Sanskrit (via Malay), Arabic (via Malay/Spanish), and Northern Philippine languages such as Kapampangan spoken on the island of Luzon.
