Kangean or Kangeanese (referred to as Besa Kangean or Ocaq Kangean by local people) is a language spoken by the Kangeanese,[2] which is an ethnic group originating from Kangean Island in the Kangean Islands region, north of the Bali Sea.[3][4][5] It is native to Kangean and the surrounding islands. Kangean lies to the north of Bali, the northwest of Lombok and the east of Madura. The Kangean language is closely related to Madurese and partly mutually intelligible with it, and is often considered a dialect of Madurese.[6]
