Maranao - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (425 words)
Maranao is the term used for the people of Lanao, a predominantly Muslim region in the Philippine island of Mindanao.
The Maranaos primarily live in the provinces of Lanao del Sur and Lanao del Norte, and many are settlers in Zamboanga del Sur, Bukidnon, Cotabato, Maguindanao, and in many southern Philippine islands from Basilan exending to Tawi-Tawi.
The language can be traced from the Southern Philippine sub-branch of the Western Austronesian language family, and is closely related to the Ilanun language spoken in Sabah and Malaysia.
