The Dusunic languages are a group of languages spoken by the Bisaya, Dusun, Kadazan, Rungus, and related peoples in the Malaysian province of Sabah on Borneo.
Languages
The languages are divided as follows,[3]
- Bisaya–Lotud: Brunei Bisaya, Sabah Bisaya, Lotud
- Dusun: Central Dusun, Kuijau, Papar, Labuk-Kinabatangan Kadazan, Kota Marudu Talantang, Kimaragang–Tebilung–Rungus, Klias River Kadazan, Coastal Kadazan

Not all languages spoken by the Dusun people belong to this group; the East Barito languages include several which are also named 'Dusun'.
