Ati language (Philippines)

Ati ("Inati") is an Austronesian language of the island of Panay in the Philippines. The variety spoken in northern Panay is also called Sogodnin (Pennoyer 1987). The Ati people also speak Kinaray-a and Hiligaynon.
Classification.
Pennoyer (1987) and Reid (2013) consider Inati to be an isolate within the Philippine languages. It differs markedly from the Visayan languages and has many features not found in the Central Philippine languages.
