Bulaqueño Tagalog, also called Bulakenyo or Bulakeño, is a way of speaking the Tagalog language. People mostly use it in the province of Bulacan and in Nueva Ecija. This dialect also comes from the old form of the Tagalog language used many years ago. [1]

The Bulacan Tagalog is a monotone aside of Filipino language used mostly in Metro Manila, and is influenced by Kapampangan and by nearby provinces.[2] In Nueva Ecija, the dialect also has a lot of loanwords from Ilocano, the second largest language in the province.
