Kankanaey (also spelled Kankana-ey) is a South-Central Cordilleran language under the Austronesian family spoken on the island of Luzon in The Philippines primarily by the Kankanaey people. It is widely used by Cordillerans, alongside Ilocano, specifically people from the Mountain Province and people from the Northern part of the Benguet Province.〔Allen, Janet L. 2014. * *Kankanaey: A Role and Reference Grammar Analysis * * Dallas:SIL International〕 ==Phonology== This language should not be confused with a related, but different, language in the Sagada area called * *Kankanay * *. Of particular phonological interest is the very common occurrence of what is called the "barred i" in IPA. It is the unrounded, high mid vowel on the IPA chart. The letter e in Kankanaey is to be pronounced as this sound, and not as the e in words like ''bet'' or ''wet''. This is also one of the vowel in a few other Northern Luzon languages like Ilocano and Pangasinan. Some words with this sound are as follows: ''e''mey - to go ''e''ntako - let's go (a contracted form of ''e''mey tako) ''e''d - a preposition showing location or time marker (e.g. ed Baguio = in Baguio, ed nabbaon = in the long-ago times) ip''e''-''e''y - to put ''e''ng-gay - only, finish Image:Kankanaey Hymal Cover.jpg|Cover of the Kankanay Hymnal .
