Further information: Situbondo Madurese

Situbondo Madurese is a Madurese dialect spoken mainly in Situbondo Regency, in the eastern salient of Java. This dialect is especially closely related or very close to the Sumenep dialect spoken on the easternmost island of Madura.[5] Situbondo, where this language is spoken, although separated from the island of Madura, most or almost all of its population are Madurese, mainly migrating from Sumenep. Madurese people really dominates all the places there, this can be seen from the fact that in all the districts there the dominant language is Madurese.[6]
