Sabüm is an aboriginal Aslian language of Lenggong, Malaya, extinct as of 2013.[3] It was nearly extinct by 1976. Sabum became a distinct dialect from Lanoh around 610 AD. It split from Semnam between 730 to 985 AD; it then came into close contact with the Yir dialect of Lanoh. The Sabum have since switched to Temiar.[1]
