A person who follows around another particular group of friends (a "clique") but does not really interact with them. This person tries to be friends with the group, but due to any number of things, the person has nothing to share with the group or anything to add to the conversation. This creates an incredibly awkward situation where the group wants him to go away, but says nothing, and the person feels he does not belong, but doesn't want to just leave.

Therefore, the person decides to stick with the people and hope for the best. He hangs on the edge of the group and follows them from time to time, becoming a "tag-along"

Jeff: Dude, was that Mike that just walked up, said "Hi", stood around us for ten minutes, then walked away?

John: Yeah, Mike is such a Tag-along.

Tagaloner

The one kid in your group of friends that no one likes but is always there because he follows you around so he won't be alone.

Man Tony is such a tagaloner, I wish he would just leave us alone!

tagalog

Dialect spoken by many Luzon-based Filipinos. Tagalog is generally regarded as the lingua franca among Filipinos at home and abroad, but there are several other dialects spoken across the archipelago, and there is some sensitivity about treating Tagalog as definitively "Filipino."

Also refers to the ethnicity of Tagalog-speaking natives. One theorized origin of the word is "taga-ilog," meaning "from the river."

The Tagalogs speak Tagalog.
