The Tagalog Language
- Tagalog is natively known as Tagalog / Filipino and belongs to the Austronesian, Malayo-Polynesian, Philippine, Central Philippine language family.
- There are approximately 28 million native Tagalog, 82 million Filipino speakers worldwide.
- Tagalog forms the basis of Filipino, the national language of the Philippines, though Filipino also incorporates elements from other Philippine languages.
- The Philippines is one of the most linguistically diverse countries in the world, with over 180 languages, but Tagalog/Filipino serves as the lingua franca.
- Tagalog originally used the Baybayin script, an ancient writing system derived from Indian Brahmi scripts, before Spanish colonisation introduced the Latin alphabet.
- The language has borrowed extensively from Spanish (due to over 300 years of colonial rule), English, Malay, Sanskrit, and Chinese.
- The Tagalog verb system uses an elaborate focus system with affixes that indicate the semantic role of the topic (actor, object, location, beneficiary, instrument).
- The Filipino community is one of the largest migrant communities in Australia, with over 310,000 Filipino-born residents as of 2021. Concentrated in Sydney (Blacktown, Liverpool), Melbourne (Dandenong, Casey), Darwin, and regional areas, Filipinos are among the top source countries for skilled and family migration. The community is well-organised with numerous cultural, religious, and professional associations.
About Banksia
Banksia is a suburb in southern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Banksia is located 12 kilometres south of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Rockdale and is part of the St George area. Banksia is named for Joseph Banks, a botanist on the Voyage of Discovery of James Cook which visited the nearby Botany Bay in 1770. The suburb was part of land owned by Simeon Pearce (1821–86) and his brother James Pearce in the 1850s, which extended from Rockdale to Brighton-Le-Sands. Until the late nineteenth century, the area was heavily timbered but residential development began in the 1880s. One of the leading developers was Frederick Jamison Gibbes, a Member of Parliament, after whom Gibbes Street in the suburb is named. The area developed more rapidly after the railway station opened on 21 October 1906. Many names for the suburb were suggested but the final choice came from Charles Stead, father of novelist Christina Stead. The post office opened in August 1924.
