Résumé / Abstract

Previously, the most accepted belief was the Spanish language in the Philippines gradually disappeared as the educated population during the Spanish period passed away. This generalization, I think must be reevaluated. This process of withering away of the Spanish language was not as gradual as was supposed and, in fact, the Spanish language was relatively well maintained during the first four decades after the Philippine Revolution. This article covers the period from the departure of the last Spanish governor in Manila to the first years of the Independence of the Archipelago, when some laws were passed by the Philippine Senate implementing a policy which required the compulsory teaching of the Spanish language in the schools
