Vocabulario de la lengua tagala

Vocabulario de la lengua tagala (transl. Vocabulary of the Tagalog language) was the first dictionary of the Tagalog language in the Philippines.

It was written by the Franciscan friar Pedro de Buenaventura and published in Pila, Laguna in 1613.[1] He most probably used the Vocabulario tagalo left by fray Juan de Plasencia as a source.

The dictionary became a significant source of inspiration to the Czech-born missionary Pablo Clain in the beginning of the 18th century.[2]

Further editions of the work were prepared by P. Juan de Noceda and P. Pedro de Sanlucar; their second edition was published in Manila in 1754 and then repeatedly[3] reedited with the latest edition being the 2013 edition.[4]
