 Like other Philippine languages, Bikol has a number of loanwords, largely Spanish as a
result of 333 years of Spanish rule in the Philippines. This
includes suerte (luck), karne (carne, meat), imbestigador(investigador,
investigator), litro (liter), pero (but), and krimen (crimen, crime). Another source of
loanwords is Sanskrit, with words like hade (king) and karma.

 Bikol or Bicolano is an Austronesian language used in the Philippines particularly on the Bicol
Peninsula in the island of Luzon. Standard Bicol is based on the dialect of Naga City and is spoken in a
wide area stretching fromCamarines Norte, most of Camarines Sur, the entire east coast
of Albay (including Legazpi and Tabaco) and northernSorsogon. Standard Bicol is generally understood
by other Bikol speakers and is the regional lingua franca.
 Bicol varieties include Bicol Rinconada (Iriga-Buhi-Nabua-Baao-Bato-Balatan area), the western Albay
dialects Oasnun and Darageño (Oas, Daraga), Bicol Sorsogon (Sorsogon), Bicol Catanduanes, and Bicol
Partido (municipalities surrounding Lagonoy Gulf).

 Although the Bicol languages are the dominant languages of the region, the Filipino language (Tagalog)
is also spoken in northern parts of Camarines Norte as well as in the municipality of Del Gallego,
Camarines Sur. Two Visayan languages, Sorsoganon and Masbateño or Minasbate, are spoken
in Masbate and Sorsogon; they are collectively referred to as Bisakol.
