Southern Nicobarese, also known as Nicobara, Great Nicobarese, and Sambelong, is a Nicobarese language, spoken on the Sambelong aka Southern Nicobar Islands of Little Nicobar, Great Nicobar, and a couple small neighboring islands, Kondul and Pulo Milo (Milo Island). Each is said to have its own dialect, as does the Tafwap region of Little Nicobar, though Kondul was evacuated to Great Nicobar after the 2004 tsunami.
