Why  SEALANG-L provides an international forum for scholarly discussion of the spoken and written languages of Southeast Asia. Discussion includes formal features of these languages, as well as issues related to theory, research, software development, computational linguistics, history, sociolinguistics, language planning, teaching, and lexicography.

    The core SEA languages belong to five major families: Austronesian (AN); Mon-Khmer (Austro-Asiatic; AA, including Munda); Tai-Kadai (TK); Tibeto-Burman (TB; a branch of Sino-Tibetan ST); and Hmong-Mien (HM; also known as Miao-Yao). SEALANG interests also extend to languages of the Sino-Tibetan language family, as well as languages of the Austronesian language family, spoken in Vietnam and Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines, Brunei, Indonesia, Java, and the Micronesian, Melanesian, Polynesian, and Madagascar regions.

    Languages of historical importance, particularly Pali and Sanskrit, and recently introduced European languages, such as English, are included in the discussion to the extent they bear on SEA.
