The Palawanic languages are a subgroup in the Greater Central Philippine-family spoken on the island of Palawan and nearby islets.
Languages
The Palawanic languages are:
- Palawano (a dialect cluster)
- Aborlan Tagbanwa
- Central Tagbanwa (not to be confused with Kalamian Tagbanwa)
- Palawan Batak (not to be confused with Toba Batak)
- Tau't Batu[1][2]
Molbog may also be in this group, closest to Palawano.[3][4]
Reconstruction
Proto-Palawanic has been reconstructed by Thiessen (1980).[3]
