One of the major ethnic groups in the Philippines. They live in the provinces of Rizal, Laguna, Bulacan, and Bataan on the island of Luzon. Tagalog, like other Philippine languages, is an Austronesian language, and it is estimated that more than 10 million people speak it as their mother tongue. Due to the 300 years of Spanish rule since the late 16th century, more than 80% of the population is Catholic. In rural areas, the traditional lifestyle is maintained, and most people live in small stilt houses made of wood or nipa palm, and they mainly farm rice, but their main cash crops are sugarcane and coconuts. They played the most important role in the revolution against colonial rule by white people (Spanish and Americans) that took place from the 19th century to the early 20th century. They have produced many of the major heroes of the Philippine people and leaders of the government after independence.

フィリピンの主要民族の一つ。ルソン島のリサール州,ラグナ州,ブラカン州,バターン州などに住む。タガログ語は他のフィリピン諸語と同じくオーストロネシア語族に属し,これを母語とする者は 1000万人以上と推計される。 16世紀後半から約 300年にわたるスペイン人の支配により,80%以上がカトリック教徒となっている。農村地帯では伝統的な生活様式が維持され,大半が木やニッパヤシでつくった小さな高床式の家屋に住み,水稲耕作を主とする農業を営んでいるが,主要な換金作物はサトウキビとココナッツである。 19世紀から 20世紀初頭にかけて起こった白人 (スペイン人,アメリカ人) の植民地支配に対する革命運動で,最も重要な役割を演じた。フィリピン国民の主要な英雄や,独立後の政府の指導者を多く輩出している。
