Chamorro (Finu' CHamoru) is an Austronesian language of the Western Malayo-Polynesian branch, indigenous to Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. Estimates put speakers at around 58,000 across the Marianas and the US mainland. After centuries of Spanish rule it absorbed many Spanish loanwords (around half of common vocabulary in some counts).
Chamorro has VSO word order in basic clauses, uses an Austronesian-style focus system, and marks the glottal stop with an apostrophe (CHamoru, na' is 'food'). It shows a productive infix -um- for actor focus (kati 'cry' → kumati 'cries') and -in- for object focus, plus reduplication for plurals and intensity.
