Let us set aside politics and unnecessary issues to pave the way for the Buwan Ng Wika (Philippine Language Month) celebration. This seems to be the only longest observation and celebration of our languages. But for some reason, we have been only focused on the national language, Filipino when we should also be aware of the many languages that abound us.Review 101: First, our national language is Filipino. Second, we have eight major languages: Tagalog, Ilocano, Kapampangan, Pangasinan, Waray, Bicolano, Cebuano and Hiligaynon (Ilonggo).
Buwan Ng Wika Trivia
Third, we have around 185 languages and dialects. Fourth, whether you accept it or not – the official language or as Peter Wallace coined it, the “language unifier” is Filipino and English. Yes, there is much debate on this but let’s leave it for now.In 1946, President Sergio Osmena, through Proclamation No. 35 of March 26 declared a week-long celebration of the national language which lasted from March 27 to April 2 each year, the last day being the birthday of the Filipino writer Francisco Baltazar, author of the Tagalog epic Florante at Laura. Proclamation No. 186 of September 23 was later signed in 1955 by President Ramon Magsaysay to call it Linggo Ng Wika.
In 1997, another Proclamation signed by President Fidel V. Ramos was made to lengthen the celebration into a month; thus, it became Buwan ng Wika. It was also made to fall on the birth month of President Manuel Quezon who was known to be the father of our national language or Ama ng Wikang Pambansa. He felt that our countrymen needed to unite using one national language (Tagalog later changed to Filipino) without forgetting their ethnic languages or dialects.So, what is the significance of Buwan ng Wika?
KWF leads the celebration with the theme 'Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik.' (Filipino: Language of Research).'

Buwan na Wika 2017This year's theme, 'Filipino: Wikang Mapagbago' reminds us on the importance of our language which paves the way for a deeper understanding of our identity as Filipinos and increase our drive for a better change for the Philippines.As national hero Dr. Jose Rizal once emphasized the importance of national language, 'Ang hindi magmahal sa sariling wika ay higit pa ang amoy sa mabahong isda; kaya ating pagyamaning kusa, gaya ng inang sa atin ay nagpala.' Trinitarians were once again challenged to celebrate their unique identities as Filipinos through various activities.The month-long celebration was divided into different parts. The Supreme Trinitarian Council spearheaded the bugtung-bugtungan activity during the flag ceremony.The culminating activities of the preschool, elementary and high school departments were celebrated during the last week of August.The preschool department had their literary musical show featuring vocal solo contests and Filipino dances.The elementary and high school departments' held their literary musical show. Students showcased their talents in dancing, singing, pagtutula, bandang etniko, and the delivery of their hugot lines.One of the best features of the litmus was the 'Pagalingan sa Kasuotang Pilipino', the chance of the Trinitarians to wear their best Filipino costumes.Another day of the National Language Week was dedicated to the Palarong-Pambansa.
On this day, students grouped themselves together and competed in games traditionally played by children in the Philippines.Like the Filipino language, these traditional games represent a culture that the Filipinos call their own.
