Tiruray is a Philippine language spoken in the Mindanao Region of the Philippines by about 60,500 people. It is particularly spoken in the municipalities of Datu Blah T. Sinsuat, Upi, the South Upi in the southwest of Maguindanao Province, and in the municipality of Lebak in the northwest of Sultan Kudarat Province.
Tiruray is also known as Tirurai or Teduray. It is written with the Latin alphabet, and contains loanwords from Chinese, English, Hiligaynon, Maguindanao, Spanish and Tagalog.
There appear to be different ways to write Tiruray. The glottal stop is not always marked, and it is unclear what á signifies.

So when you pray, you should pray like this: Our Father in heaven, we pray that your name will always be kept holy. We pray that your kingdom will come, and that the things you want will be done here on earth, the same as in heaven. Give us the food we need for each day. Forgive the sins we have done, the same as we have forgiven the people that did wrong to us. Don't let us be tempted, but save us from the Evil One.
