government would eventually pattern its
government system after American
government.
 The Commonwealth of the Philippines was also known as the "Philippine
Commonwealth",[15][16] or simply as "the Commonwealth". Its official
name in Spanish, the other of the Commonwealth's two official languages,
was Commonwealth de Filipinas ([filiˈpinas]). The 1935 Constitution uses
"the Philippines" as the country's short-form name throughout its
provisions and uses "the Philippine Islands" only to refer to pre-1935
status and institutions.[14] Under the Insular Government (1901–1935),
both terms were used officially.[a][17] In 1937, Tagalog was declared to
be the basis of a national language,[7] effective after two years. The
country's official name translated into Tagalog would be Kómonwélt ng
Pilipinas.
