The Ibaloi language (pronounced as //əsəl ivaˈdoj//) belongs to the Malayo-Polynesian branch of the Austronesian languages family. It is closely related to the Pangasinan language, which is spoken primarily in central and southern Benguet, and western Nueva Vizcaya and eastern La Union. Its dialects include Daklan, Kabayan, and Bokod.

Ibaloi phonemes are similar to those found in other Philippine languages with a few exceptions. Many variants of the Ibaloi tongue have naturally occurring pronounced as /link/, pronounced as /link/ and pronounced as /link/, as in (interrogative 'who'), ('to lose one's grip on something or someone, to let go') and (a traditional wrap-around skirt). pronounced as /link/ is also commonly heard in the La Trinidad valley and nearby areas, as in (a particle usually equivalent to the prepositions in, on, or to depending on the sentence construction), but may be occasionally heard as pronounced as /link/ in some communities.[1]
