Onhan is aregionalWestern Bisayan language spoken, along with theRomblomanon andAsi languages, in the province ofRomblon,Philippines.^[2] The language is also known asInunhan andLoocnon.

• The Onhan language has three variants – those spoken in the municipalities of Santa Maria and Alcantara use/l/ instead of/r/. Example:kararaw iskalalaw, and other speakers change/r/ or/l/ to/d/ as inrun orlun todun.

Specifically, Onhan is spoken on the following islands within Romblon:

• Tablas: themunicipalities ofSan Andres,Santa Maria,Alcantara,Ferrol,Looc, andSanta Fe and some upland sitios inOdiongan.
• Carabao: the sole municipality ofSan Jose.

As a variant of theKinaray-a language, some speakers are found on the island ofBoracay inAklan province as well as parts of the island ofPanay, specifically in the following municipalities:Malay,Nabas andBuruanga. In the provinces ofOriental andOccidental Mindoro, migrant Onhan speakers from Tablas Island brought the language to the following municipalities:San Jose,Magsaysay,Bulalacao,Mansalay,Roxas, and some parts ofBongabong. As such, it is very much related toKinaray-a andKuyonon.

TheNew Testament was translated into Bisaya-Inunhan byEldon Leano Talamisan and published in 1999.

The Harrow (Ang Singkaw), an official publication ofRomblon State University, publishes Inunhan poems, stories and other genres of literature.
