The word "Filipino" is in itself already an English term. It can refer or describe to a number of things pertaining to anything that is from the Philippines, e.g., Filipino food. For your question, yes, Filipino also refers to a person who is a native of the Philippines. The local term for Filipino is "Pilipino" or the colloquial term "Pinoy". A more recently-created and popular informal term of Filipino is "Noypi".

Filipino is English because in the Pilipino Alphabet there is no "F."
