Inagta Partido (Isarog Agta) or alternativelyKatubung[2] is a nearly extinctBikol language spoken by a semi-nomadic hunter-gathererAgta (Negrito) people of thePhilippines. It is found onMount Isarog east ofNaga City particularly in the town ofOcampo where the most recent survey of the language was conducted.[3]
According to Lobel (2013),[4] there are no speakers of Inagta Partido under 60. It is a moribund language. TheEthnologue cites a report from 2000 that there were then only five speakers from an ethnic population of about 1,000.[5] Due to the lack of native speakers,UNESCO classified the language as "critically endangered".[6]
Inagta Partido has borrowed heavily from Bikol languages such as Bikol Naga and Bikol Partido, but has a non-Bikol substratum.[7]
