Re:Show HN: Bato – A Filipino Programming Language on Friday January 12, 2018 @09:27AM (#16132996)
Tagalog speaker here. Yes, it is.

edit:

Bato -> stone.

Ang 'Bato Programming Language' ay isang scripting language sa wikang Filipino. -> The Bato programming language is a scripting language in the Filipino tongue (T/N: or more specifially, Tagalog).

---

More interestingly in the following section: Bakit Bato? -> Why call it Bato?

Ang 'bato' ay hango sa Ruby Programming Language na may Filipino sintaks. Ang kadahilanang ginamit ang pangalang 'bato' ay dahil ang Ruby ay isang uri ng bato. -> Bato is made with Ruby using Filipino syntax. The reason to use the word "Bato" as a name is because Ruby is a kind of stone.

It should also be noted that Whorf did not speak Hopi fluently so any of his claims regarding this language should be taken with a grain of salt.
