 Bugis...
 | "Bugis, or Wagi, is spoken in southwestern 
Sulawesi (Celebes). It is an Indonesian tongue of the 
Malayo-Polynesian family, so
 closely related to Macassar that many 
consider them to be
 dialects of the same language.   The Bugis alphabet, probably the
 basic form from which Macassar developed, consists of 23 letters,
 of which five are compound consonants.   Points are added to
 indicate vowels."--1000 Tongues, 1972   [Info only]
