Technically English. However, one could argue that English is the FIRST language of the P.I., and that the second is your tribal dialect. Not everybody speaks Tagalog!

When I was stationed at Naval Station Subic Bay, all of the base workers spoke primarily English - because in many cases, that was the only language they had in common. In the base housing areas, most families had a housekeeper or maid, and those women usually conversed in English; because they had all come from separate villages and islands, and didn't speak the same language. Except English.
