Kasiguranin (Casiguranin) is the language of Casiguran town in the province of Aurora in the northern Philippines. It is descended from an early Tagalog dialect that had borrowed heavily from Northeastern Luzon Agta languages.[2]

Dilasag, Dinapigue, Maconacon, and Divilacan are primarily Ilocano-speaking towns just to the north of Casiguran.
