Our country, Philippines is home to many different languages, dialects, and sub-dialects. Although the official language of the Philippines is Filipino (based on Tagalog), there are over 170 dialects spoken throughout the archipelago which consist of more than 2100 islands.

Guam a small island has its own national dialect called Chamorro.

Philippines and Guam were both under the colony of the Spaniards for 300 years which greatly affected our Language. But early settlers before the Spaniards came like Indosia, China and other neighboring islands have influenced the diversity of our Language. English is the official Language for both Guam and Philippines.
