I thought they were typos.
If it's a Filipino language, like Tagalog, it could be because English is taught in the schools in the Philippines, so many immigrants know English. Besides that, there are dozens of non-English dialects beyond Tagalog.
Also, if you grew up in the US but in a bilingual household, flitting between two languages isn't that unusual.
