Tagalog, spoken in Manila and the surrounding provinces, Luzon,
Philippines, is a major language of the western branch of the
Austronesian family. The bulk of this book is devoted to parallel
words also found in Malay, a member of the same branch. These words
are either cognates descending from Proto-Austronesian or
borrowings from the same foreign languages. Other cognates were
found in Javanese, Malagasy, Tahitian and even Siamese. The last
third of the book deals with Sanskrit, Arabic, Spanish, Chinese,
Japanese and English loanwords.
