Yau language (Trans–New Guinea)

Yau is one of the two major dialects of the Uruwa Language that is spoken by the Uruwa people. It is a Finisterre language of Papua New Guinea.
It is spoken in Boit, Boksawin, Komdaron, Sapmanga, Sapurong, Sindamon, and Sugan villages in Morobe Province. The Southern dialects are called Nungon or Nuon, and are spoken in the Kotet, Mitmit, Mup, Towet, Worin, and Yawan villages. The dialects are fairly equally divided among the 3,000 people that live in the Uruwa River valley.
The two major dialects are about 60-65% related based on shared vocabulary and don't have great clarity in understanding one another.
