Language: Betawi Malay (Tengahan dialect)

Source/Author:  Kevin Yusuf Tj. 
Identifiers:  ISO-639-3:  Glottocode: tang1384 
Notes:  Chaer, Abdul. (2009). Kamus dialek Jakarta. Depok: Masup Jakarta, revised edition. (with spelling corrections that are considered more relevant)

Also considered from observe in society, and as a native speaker. Traditionally spoken in many places around the central of Jakarta, and more concentrated in; Kebon Jeruk, Kemayoran, Kramat Jati, Jatinegara, Palmerah, Tanah Abang, and it surrounding. 
Problems:  May there's a different pronounciation for the end of syllables /ah/ (on the general Malay varian) which in Betawi Tengahan dialect it can be /ɛh/ or /a/.

The difference between /ɛ/ and /e/ can be not obvious.
