Rungus
Rungus is a variety of the Momogun language of Malaysia. It is an Austronesian language spoken by the Rungus people in Sabah by around 60,000 people (as of 2010), including 10,000 monolinguals (only speak Rungus). Its ISO 639 is drg, and its status is "threatened." However, it has extremely low digital support. It uses Latin script. This language is my first choice because my cat's name is also Rungus! I learned about the language after naming my cat, of course. She (my cat) is on campus and can help with the project.
