Language Policies in the Philippines.
Goulet, Rosalina Morales
Social Education, v49 n2 p113-14 Feb 1985
Filipinos speak more than a hundred different languages, 10 to 15 of which are major. In addition, the Philippines was occupied by two foreign powers, each speaking a different language, i.e., Spanish and English. This situation has resulted in a number of different language policies throughout the country's history. These policies are discussed. (RM)
