Tenggerese (sometimes referred to as Tengger Javanese) is a language used by the Tenggerese people in the mountain region of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park which includes Pasuruan Regency, Probolinggo Regency, Malang Regency and Lumajang Regency of East Java, Indonesia.

Linguistically, Tenggerese is considered to be a dialect of Javanese, a Malayo-Polynesian language under the Austronesian language family. Some linguists regard Tenggerese as a descendant of the ancient Kawi language, as it has retained old vocabulary that is no longer used in modern.
