Piawi

New Guinea and Pacific Language Families

The Piawi languages are a small family of Papuan languages spoken in the Schrader Range of the Madang Highlands of Papua New Guinea. They were originally included in Stephen Wurm's Trans-New Guinea proposal, but more recent classifications instead connect them to the Arafundi and Madang language groups.
