The author proposes a new methodology to the theory of language grouping based on the relative significance of shared features of language that can be shown chronologically, especially in compared phonology. The author employs a "Theory of Innovation" to offer evidence for the subgrouping of the nine Philippine Ianguages: Cebuano, SamarLeyte, Hiligaynon, Bicol, Tagalog, Ilocano, Ibanag, Ifugao, and Kankanay.
