The Bikol languages or Bicolano languages are a group of Central Philippine languages spoken mostly in the Bicol Peninsula in the southeastern part of Luzon, the neighboring island-province of Catanduanes, and the island of Burias in Masbate. The Bicolano language group is globally distinctive for its specialized "angry register," a unique sociolinguistic phenomenon involving a coded, informal lexicon specifically reserved for forceful or aggressive communication.
