Javanese Language

Javanese language is the language of the people in the central and eastern parts of the island of Java, in Indonesia. In addition, there are also some pockets of Javanese speakers in the northern coast of western Java. It is the native language of more than 75,500,000 people.

The Javanese language is part of theAustronesian family, and is therefore related to Indonesian language and other Malay language varieties. Many speakers of Javanese also speak Indonesian for official and commercial purposes and to communicate with non-Javanese Indonesians.

Outside Indonesia, there are large communities of Javanese-speaking people in the neighbouring countries such as East_Timor Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, and also Hong_Kong and Taiwan" . In addition there are also Javanese-speaking people in Suriname, the Netherlands, and New_Caledonia. The Javanese speakers in Malaysia are especially found in the states of Selangor and Johor.
