Ibanic languages

The Ibanic languages are a branch of the Malayic languages indigenous to western Borneo. They are spoken by the Ibans and related groups in East Malaysia and the Indonesian province of West Kalimantan. Other Dayak languages, called Land Dayak, which are not Ibanic, are found in the northwest corner of Kalimantan, between Ibanic and non-Ibanic Malayic languages such as Kendayan and the Malay dialects of Sarawak and Pontianak.

The term "Ibanic" is coined by Alfred B. Hudson, who was among the first to investigate the genetic affiliation of various languages lumped together under the name "Dayak" in West Borneo.[2] Ibanic has been variously classified as belonging to a larger "Malayic Dayak"[2] or "West Bornean Malayic"[3] subgroup along with Kendayan and related varieties, or as a part of the "Nuclear Malayic" subgroup alongside other Malay dialects.[4]

Languages

According to Ethnologue, six languages belong to the Ibanic subgroup:[5]

gollark: That's not related.
gollark: There are multiple issues I can see:1. modded servers have fewer players, so less econofun2 (probably more significant). modded results in basically creative play for anyone and no trading3. specialization does not happen
