Whatever you call ancient Philippinos, the first wave of immigrants seem to have entered from Micronesia, especially from Yap. But their traces have disappeared, because many of them moved on even up to India. And the ones who settled in the Philippines have been assimilated by bigger groups, who arrived in the Philippine islands from Continental Asia. There are still words and expressions to be found in the six still existing older languages of the Philippine population. Still today one can find population groups to be identified as members of Khmer, Malay/Indonesian, Chinese origin. Also in southern Philippines groups from Melanesian Islands and New Guinea are still part of the mix. Later came Arabs and Spaniards and mixed with the existing population. And all groups brought their own languages. Most of them have disappeared. Now in Philippines still used are six older languages and two newer ones. Many others have disappeared, or started to mingle into bigger language groups. The today official language Tagalog is actually an artificial language-mix out of four indigenous languages and words from Malay (Bahasa) and Spanish and English. Also found are some Arabic, Chinese and Chamorro traces.
