Nuclear Malayo-Polynesian
Geographic distribution:	Indonesia and the Pacific
Genetic classification:	Austronesian Malayo-Polynesian (MP) Nuclear Malayo-Polynesian
Subdivisions:	Sunda-Sulawesi Central-Eastern MP

The Nuclear Malayo-Polynesian languages are a branch of the Austronesian family that are thought to have dispersed from a possible homeland in Sulawesi. In this case nuclear means central.

Nuclear Malayo-Polynesian is considered to have two branches:

The Sunda-Sulawesi languages or Inner Hesperonesian (Inner Western Malayo-Polynesian) languages, which include the languages of Sulawesi and the Greater Sunda Islands, as well as a few outliers such as Chamorro and Palauan; and
the Central-Eastern Malayo-Polynesian languages, which include the languages to the east (the Lesser Sunda Islands, Halmahera, Moluccas, New Guinea, and the Pacific).
