Subtag: taglish
Description: Tagalog-English code-switching
Prefix: en
Prefix: tl
Prefix: fil
Comments: This subtag represents Taglish, wherever it is different from
  straight Tagalog or straight English.

4. Intended meaning of the subtag:

Taglish is the de facto lingua franca of the urban areas in the
Philippines, owing to the high levels of bilingualism between Filipinos
speaking both English and Tagalog (Lesada, 2017; Bautista, 2004). This
subtag is meant to represent Taglish, as it may be different to its
native Tagalog term. For example, the term for "choose" (like in a
website button) is "I-choose" in Taglish but "Pumili"/"Piliin" in
Tagalog.
