The Celebic languages are a subgroup of the Austronesian languages spoken on the island of Sulawesi, formerly spelled Celebes. Almost all of the languages spoken in the provinces of Central Sulawesi and Southeast Sulawesi belong to the Celebic group. A few Celebic languages (e.g. Wotu, Bonerate) are located in South Sulawesi province. By number of languages (but not by number of speakers), Celebic is the largest subgroup of Austronesian languages on Sulawesi.

Subgrouping

Internal subgrouping

David Mead (2003a:125)[1][2] classifies the Celebic languages as follows.

  • Tomini–Tolitoli
  • Kaili–Pamona
  • Wotu–Wolio
  • Eastern
    • Saluan–Banggai
    • Southeastern
    • Bungku–Tolaki
    • Muna–Buton

Position within Austronesian

At the current stage of research, the Celebic languages are considered to make up a primary branch of the Malayo-Polynesian subgroup within in the Austronesian language family.[3]
