Orang Kanaq
Orang Kanaq是南岛语系的一种语言,主要分布在马来西亚。按 Glottolog 的评估,它的濒危程度为“垂危”。
Orang Kanaq is one of the Malayic languages, grouped under the Austronesian languages. It is spoken by the Orang Kanaq, one of the 19 Orang Asli groups in Peninsular Malaysia. The language is believed to have been extinct since the 1950s according to the UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger.
A variant of Malay, Orang Kanaq is distinct from the dialects spoken by ethnic Malays living near them. All members of the Orang Kanaq tribe understand the language; however, its lexicon has been largely influenced by the Malay language.
