Chavacano or Chabacano, (Idioma chabacano), sometimes referred to by linguists as Philippine Creole Spanish or Broken Spanish, is a Spanish-based creole language spoken in the Philippines. The word "Chavacano" is derived from the Spanish word, meaning "poor taste," "vulgar," "common", "of low quality," "tacky," or "coarse" for the Chavacano language which was developed in Cavite City, Ternate and Ermita, and also derived from the word chavano which was coined by the people of Zamboanga. Six different dialects have developed: Zamboangueño in Zamboanga City, Davaoeño Zamboangueño / Castellano Abakay in Davao, Ternateño in Ternate, Caviteño in Cavite City, Cotabateño in Cotabato City and Ermiteño in Ermita.
