papuan language
Papuan languages are a group of non-Austronesian and non-Australian languages spoken on the island of New Guinea, and neighboring islands, by several million people. It includes approximately 800 languages, classified into dozens of different families and several isolates, with no demonstrated genealogical relationships among the families or with any other languages. The term "Papuan" is used to distinguish them from the Austronesian languages, which are widely dispersed throughout the Pacific.
