Sundanese...
"Sundanese is the language of about 12 million
people living
primarily in the highlands of western Java. Racially, culturally,
and linguistically, the Sundanese differ from other groups living
on Java. Racially they are Proto-Malays, with admixtures of
later comers. Their culture, following the Malayan pattern, is
based upon village life, with a headman and council of elders.
Both the B_ddhism they adopted earlier and their later accept-
ance of Isl_m have been underlaid by many ancient
customs and
beliefs. Their language, closely related to Malay and Javanese,
belongs to the Malayo-Polynesian
family. Sundanese has a
greater number of speakers than any other Indonesian language
except Javanese. It is written in the Javanese-Sundanese alphabet,
an adapted Latin alphabet, or a modified Arabic script, which is
commonly used in religious writings.
Such modern developments as roads, foreign plantations, and
village schools, are said to have made the Sundanese less unlike
their neighbors." --1000 Tongues, 1972 [Info only]
