	By number of speakers, the '''Central''' branch is by far the largest, as [[Sinatolean]] is a member of this branch. However, by number of languages in the branch, it is the smallest; even the extinct Sinat’ branch had more at its peak. The Central languages contain two languages: [[Sinatolean]] and [[Ya’anguí]], the latter a moribund language with only a dozen native speakers remaining, that is often considered a dialect of Sinatolean.
