The Balinese language is an Austronesian language spoken primarily on the island of Bali, Indonesia. It is the native language of the Balinese people and has several dialects influenced by regional variations. The language uses a script derived from the Brahmi script, which is also used in other languages in the region. Balinese is known for its complex system of speech levels, which reflect social hierarchy and context. There are three main levels: high, middle, and low, each used in different situations and with different audiences. This linguistic feature highlights the cultural importance of respect and social relationships in Balinese society.
