Barong Tagalog- Barong is actually short for Barong Tagalog, which describes the formal men's wear of the Philippines. It is property referred to as the Barong Tagalog' (Dress of the Tagalog). Contracting the first two words produces 'Barong" which literally means 'dress of.' So, If we want to be correct, we wouldn't say just 'Barong'.
