The languages of Bicol are a group of four languages that are spoken in the Bicol Region of the Philippines.
Despite being mutually unintelligible, the four languages are all called Bikol (and to a lesser extent, Bicolano) by their speakers. This situation roughly mirrors that of the Visayan languages where roughly three dozen speech varieties are called Bisaya by their speakers. In both cases, more specific names based on the name of a municipality or province are also used.
