Talking about language, Filipino is the formal term for Tagalog which is spoken by one-third of the Philippine population. Tagalog is the official language in the Philippines alongside English.
And in the academe, we celebrate the event by wearing traditional clothing.
Baro't Saya

Maria Clara or Terno
worn by the mestizas, half Filipino half Spanish during the Spanish period
Filipiñana Gown
evolution of the baro't saya usually designed with elaborate embroidery
Balintawak
worn during picnics in the countryside
Camisa de Chino (which later on will metamorphose to Baro ng Tagalog)
standard clothing for the social group who had to labor in the warmth of the tropics
Barong Tagalog
