KutaiorKutai Malay is a Malayan language spoken by 300,000 to 500,000 people. It is the native language of Kutai people (Indonesian: Suku Kutai, Kutai Malay: Urang Kutai), the indigenous ethnic group which lives along the Mahakam RiverinBorneo, especially in North Kalimantan, Indonesia. They are the principal population in the regencies of West Kutai, Kutai Kartanegara, and East Kutai within North Kalimantan province.
Kutai Malay is part of the local Bornean Malay languages and is closely related but distinct to Banjar languageinSouth Kalimantan, Berau Malay, also spoken in North Kalimantan and to some extent Brunei-Kedayan Malay as well. Kutai Malay forms a dialect continuum between the two varieties and all three shares similar phonology and vocabulary with each other.
Kutai Malay for most of its history is mainly a spoken language and is mostly used as a form of poetry (pantun). During the period of Kutai Kartanegara Sultanate, most of the literature were being done in Standard MalayinJawi script instead of Kutai Malay.
Kutai, as with many Malay varieties on the island is a dialect continuum. Dialect continuum or dialect chain is a spread of language varieties spoken across some geographical area such that neighbouring varieties differ only slightly, but the differences accumulate over distance so that widely separated varieties are not mutually intelligible. There are three principal dialects of Kutai Malay language, all three have little mutual intelligibility with each other due to the geographical proximity of these dialects. They are divided into three main dialects that is Tenggarong, Kota Bangun, and Ancalong Estuary.
