Bisalog

Bisalog

Bisalog is a portmanteau of the words 'Bisaya' and 'Tagalog' which refers to either Visayan or Tagalog being infused with words or expressions from the other.

Speakers of Bisalog may often code-switch with English, as well, resulting in what is sometimes called "Bistaglish" or "Tagbislish".
