Sula is a Malayo-Polynesian language of the Central Maluku branch. It is related to the Buru language.
It is definitely endangered, currently under pressure from the local variety of Malay.[2]
Sula has borrowed many lexical items from Ambonese Malay, as well as Ternate, a more dominant language of North Maluku.[2]: 141, 342–535 Dutch loans have entered the language too, perhaps through Malay and Ternate. Standard Indonesian has also been influential.[2]: 141
Mangole is sometimes listed as a distinct language.[2]: 50
Voiced consonant sounds /b d ɡ/ may also be heard as devoiced [b̥ d̥ ɡ̊] in word-final position.
/e/ can also be heard as [ɛ] in lax form.[2]
