About Sundanese

Sundanese is an Austronesian language spoken by the Sundanese people in the western part of the Indonesian island of Java. It is written using the Latin script today, although it historically used its own Sundanese script. Sundanese has around 42 million native speakers. An interesting fact about Sundanese is its traditional music, which includes the angklung, a bamboo musical instrument that is recognized by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage.
