Paranan, also called Palanan, is a Philippine language belonging to the Northern Luzon languages. It is spoken in the northeastern portions of Luzon in the Philippines. Lexically, it is extremely close to Paranan Agta. However, this is due to convergence to that language; the sources of the two languages are different, and this is reflected in their grammar.[2]
