Macaronesian is a subbranch of South Albic. The Macaronesian languages are spoken in Macaronesia. They are, generally speaking, the most conservative Albic languages in terms of morphology, though they have substantially innovated in terms of phonology (they are tonal and have simplified consonant clusters).
