Experts indicate there are more than 5,000 Spanish loan words that are now part of the Tagalog language from Agente through Tricilo. Bodega, Escuela, Guapo, Guerra, Estudiante, Calle, Coche, Cuento and more have joined the language. In many cases the spelling is different in Tagalog than that of Spanish. Wikipedia has an article on Tagalog loan words that includes a Spanish section.
