Also called Eastern Austronesian, it is one of the two major branches of the Austronesian language family, along with the Indonesian branch (Western Austronesian). It is indigenous to Micronesia, Melanesia, and Polynesia. Among the Micronesian languages ​​(meaning the languages ​​spoken in the Micronesian region; hereafter, the same applies to Melanesian and Polynesian languages), more than a dozen languages, such as Gilbertese, Marshallese, Nauruan, Truk, and Ponapean, belong to this Oceanic branch, while Chamorro (Mariana Islands), Palauan, and Yapese belong to the Indonesian branch.
