There are innumerable amounts of languages and dialects spoken in Southeast Asia. Most Southeast Asians speak languages from the Austro-Asian and Austronesian family of languages. I can't exaclty name you all of the languages, but I'll list down what I do remember as I said, Southeast Asia and East Asia have countless amounts of languages.

The officially recorded languages spoken in Southeast Asia that I can name (including dialects and indegenous languages) are Malay, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Lao, Cambodian, Filipino, Taiwanese, Hokkien, Chinese Mandarin, Chinese Cantonese, Tamil, Hindi, Burmese, Yawi, Javanese, Sundanese, Illocano, Cebuano, Barito, Kayan, Tausog, Balinese, Karo, Angkola, Dairi, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, Tetum, English, Chavacano, Bugis, Bisaya, Bikol, Waray-Waray, Taman, Mamuju, Mandar....(please feel free to add this list!)

Yeah as I said..the actual amount is nothing near the amount that I listed.
