 The Tagalog language also boasts accentations unique to some parts of Tagalog-speaking regions.For example, in some parts of Manila, a strong pronunciation of "i" exists and vowel-switching of "o" and "u" exists so words like "gising" (to wake) is pronounced as "giseng" with a strong 'e' and the word "tagu-taguan" (hide-and-go-seek) is pronounced as "tago-tagoan" with a mild 'o'.Batangas Tagalog boasts the most distinctive accent in Tagalog compared to the more Hispanized northern accents of the language.
