	Aklanon
		The Aklanon belong to a larger group called Viasayan, and the Aklanon language is a subclassification of the Visayan language.
		It is said that Aklanon language substitutes the phonetic sound of "e" for "l," pronounced with rolling "r" sound, because Datu Bangkaya, the first ruler of Aklan, had a short tongue and therefore could not pronounce the "l" sound.
		Aklanon balitao is an extemporaneous poetical joust between a suitor and his lady.

		Moreover, the decision to call it either a language or a dialect also entails the question of superiority or inferiority.
		Aklanons usually differentiate themselves from other speakers through a particular linguistic peculiarity: the voiced velar fricative, or the ea--ei--eo-eu sound.
