Englog, sometimes Enggalog, is an informal sociolect in the Philippines. The term is a portmanteau of the words ‘English’ and ‘Tagalog’. It is formed by infusing Tagalog words and structures into English, an example of which is called Konyo English. Somewhat akin to this is Taglish, which in turn is Tagalog infused with English words and structures.[1]
