The Spanish language evolved from greek, latin, and Arabic, also from other European languages, like German.
The Spanish language is one of the Romance languages, that is, a Roman language. It comes mainly from Latin. There is also a large influence of the Arabic language on Spanish, because of the occupation of Spain by the Moors during the Middle Ages.Every language that comes in contact with another leaves its mark. Latin and Arabic come to mind first (Spanish is mostly descended from Latin, and 750 years of Arabic presence on the Iberian peninsula), but lately there has been a big influx of English words into Spanish.French has had some effect on the Spanish language because of its international predominance and proximity for centuries, but this is less than the influence it had on the English language because of the centuries-long occupation of England by the French Normans.---In the Americas, the native languages have had a huge influence on the language. The are hints of Germanic influence (mainly from Visigoth). Influence from Basque and Celtic languages is debatable.The Spanish language grew out of Latin. It was substantially influenced by Arabic, and to a lesser extent by French. The Spanish spoken in America has also borrowed many words for native American languages.
The Philippines is a Southeast Asian country that was under Spanish rule for over 300 years and has a significant Spanish influence in its culture and language. Other than the Philippines, there are no other Southeast Asian countries where Spanish is widely spoken.
The cultural influence of Spaniards on Filipinos is significant, particularly in language, religion, and architecture. Spanish colonization introduced the Spanish language to the Philippines, resulting in many Spanish loanwords in Filipino languages. Catholicism became widely practiced in the Philippines due to Spanish missionaries, and many colonial-era churches and buildings still stand today, showcasing Spanish architectural influence.
By this question, I'm understanding what the ORIGIN of the language is. Mostly Latin, Greek and Arabic (remember, the Arabs were in Spain for 770+ years). That's why the "g" and "j" sounds are gutteral (gemido, Jorge). That's why most words with a "Z" in it is from Arabic origins: zapatofor example.If you are really wanting to know what languages have influence on the Spanish language, it is those who do the most business with them internationally. English due to the USA and Great Britain (Australia and other former colonies to a much lesser extent), French, German, Italian, (any neighbor really) all have influence on their syntax.
Some examples of such influence include language (Spanish), religion (Roman Catholicism) as well as several traditions such as Easter, Christmas or New Year's Eve.

The Moors from North Africa invaded Spain in 710. They had some influence on the Spanish language. For example Al-Andalus became Andalucia. But by far the largest influence was the Latin of the Romans. Spanish, like French, Italian, and Portuguese is a Romance Language, meaning it's origins are in Latin.
