Jose Rizal never had Tagalog in mind when he encouraged us to love our own language
Posted by a certain Chloe Santiago on the Facebook GRP Community Group:
Jose Rizal died in 1896 and Tagalog was declared the official language of the Philippine only in 1937. This can only mean that Rizal wasn't really talking about Tagalog when he made this statement:
"He who does not love his own language is worse than an animal and smelly fish."
Indeed.
Who made the arbitrary directive to make the Tagalog dialect the "National Language" to begin with?
Furthermore, why have a "National Language" when Filipinos are already proficient in the global lingua franca of commerce and scientific achievement?
