The Philippine languages are a 1991 proposal by Robert Blust that all the languages of the Philippines and northern Sulawesi—except Sama-Bajaw (languages of the "Sea Gypsies") and a few languages of Palawan—form a family of Austronesian languages. Although the Philippines is near the center of Austronesian expansion from Formosa, there is little linguistic diversity among the approximately 150 Philippine languages. (Adelaar & Himmelmann 2005)
