Embaloh language

Embaloh (Maloh) is an Austronesian (Dayak) language spoken in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Apart from Taman, it is not close to other languages on Borneo, but rather belongs to the South Sulawesi languages closest to Buginese. Many speakers of Embaloh also speak Iban, leading to the adoption of some Iban loanwords into Embaloh.

The Kalis dialect (Kalis Maloh) may be a distinct language.

Notes: Normalized orthography with ng and ' instead of ŋ and superscript ʔ (^ʔ).
