"Etimología de los Nombres de Razas de Filipinas" by T. H. Pardo de Tavera is a scientific publication produced in the early 20th century. This work explores the etymology and linguistic origins of the names associated with various ethnic groups in the Philippine Islands. The book delves into the interplay between language, culture, and ethnicity, aiming to clarify the significance of these names within the context of Philippine identity. In this extensive
study, Pardo de Tavera identifies three primary races inhabiting the Philippines: Negritos, Indonesians, and Malays, and examines how these classifications have led to a multitude of tribes and dialects. The author meticulously analyzes the prefixes, roots, and compositions of names, such as those beginning with “Taga” and “I,” providing a linguistic framework to establish the connections between language and ethnic identity. Throughout the book, Pardo de Tavera emphasizes the importance of linguistic evidence in understanding the anthropological diversity of the Philippines, ultimately seeking to provide clarity around what constitutes a "race" in the context of the archipelago.
