Coastal Kadazan language
It is the primary dialect spoken by the Kadazan people in the west coast of Sabah especially in the districts of Penampang, Papar and Membakut (sub-district of Beaufort).The state of Sabah has introduced policies to prevent this decline, which is also happening to other native Sabahan languages.Coastal Kadazan has adopted many loanwords, particularly from other northern Borneo indigenous languages and also Malay.Kadazan extensively employs the voiced alveolar sibilant fricative /z/ in their native lexicons, a feature found in only a few Austronesian languages.Sangti Maria, tina' do Kinoingan, pokiinsianai zikoi tu' tuhun do momimidouso, baino om ontok jaam do kapatazon za.
