Our Translation Services for Kalanguya Are Now Available



Boasting more than 180 indigenous languages spanning its maritime borders, the Southeast Asian island nation of the Philippines is one of the most linguistically diverse countries in the world. Tagalog has emerged as the national lingua franca, used by people all across the country to communicate with compatriots from other regions. But Tagalog is only spoken natively by around a quarter of Filipinos. Most speak smaller languages, such as Kalanguya.


Nestled in the heart of Luzon, the northernmost major island in the Philippines, you can find the Kalanguya people, speaking their native Kalanguya language. About 100,000 people are native speakers of Kalanguya, which was once the most-spoken language in the area. Today, Kalanguya is overshadowed by bigger tongues like Tagalog and Ilocano, which threaten the vitality of this proud indigenous language. Whereas most translation agencies gloss over minority languages like Kalanguya, we at TranslationServices.com would like to proudly present our new translation services dedicated to Kalanguya.

Let’s learn a bit more about Kalanguya.

The Kalanguya-speaking community encompasses portions of various provinces in the northern Philippines. You can find Kalanguya speakers in western Nueva Vizcaya, the Hungduan municipality of Ifugao, the Bokod municipality of Benguet, the San Nicolas municipality of Pangasinan, and the Carranglan municipality of Nueva Ecija. Different variants of Kalanguya have emerged depending on the region where they’re spoken, with the most prominent dialects being Central Kalanguya, spoken in Kayapa, Nueva Vizcaya; Northern Kalanguya, spoken in Ambaguio, Nueva Vizcaya, and Tinoc, Ifugao; Southern Kalanguya, spoken in Santa Fe, Nueva Vizcaya; and Western Kalanguya, spoken in Benguet.


Kalanguya is similar to most other languages in the Philippines in that it’s a member of the Austronesian language family, specifically hailing from the Philippine branch. So, while it’s related to major languages in the Philippines, like Tagalog and Cebuano, it’s more closely related to languages like Pangasinan or Ibaloi. Grammatically, Kalanguya features the unique phenomenon of sometimes using a dual pronoun to refer to oneself, but this is only possible in the right contexts. This usage of the dual pronoun is dying out in the younger generations, but it can still complicate the translation process—which is why it’s important to rely on native-speaking Kalanguya translators like the ones on our team.
