Aralle-Tabulahan is an Austronesian language that belongs to the South Sulawesi subgroup. It is spoken in Mamasa Regency, West Sulawesi, Indonesia.[2]

Aralle-Tabulahan has three major dialects: Aralle, Tabulahan and Mambi. The Mambi dialect is often regarded as the most divergent of the three dialects and is seen as at the centre of spectrum between the Aralle and Tabulahan dialects and the related Bambam language.[3]
