Kaili language : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kaili language
Kaili is an Austronesian dialect cluster of the Celebic branch, and is one of the principal languages of Central Sulawesi. The heartland of the Kaili area is the broad Palu River valley which stretches southward from Central Sulawesi’s capital city, Palu. Kaili is also spoken in the mountains which rise on both sides of this valley, and along the coasts of the Makassar Strait and the Gulf of Tomini. == Dialects ==
Taking a fine-grade view, it is possible to distinguish sixteen regional varieties of Kaili. Following the practice of Kaili people themselves, each variety is named after its negator. For example, in the Tawaili region northeast of Palu, Kaili speakers use ''rai'' as their word for ‘no,’ while speakers in the Parigi region on the Gulf of Tomini use ''tara''. These two varieties can be referred to as ‘Kaili Rai’ and ‘Kaili Tara,’ irrespective of whether one intends for these varieties to be regarded as languages, dialects, or subdialects. These varieties can also be referred to as ‘Tawaili’ and ‘Parigi.’ The following table is a list of lowest-level Kaili varieties, presented by negator and alternate name(s) by which each has been known.
