The Nuclear South Bird's Head, Core South Bird's Head or South Bird's Head proper languages form a small language family of western New Guinea. They either form part of a wider South Bird's Head language family, or may be an independent language family if not related to the Inanwatan and Konda–Yahadian languages.[2]
Languages
There are six languages:[3]
- East South Bird's Head branch:
- Kemberano (Weriagar, Barau)
- Arandai (Dombano) [dialect cluster]
- Kokoda (Tarof, Kasuweri)
- Kaburi
- Kais (Kampong Baru)
- Puragi (Iwaro)
Although traditionally classified as part of the South Bird's Head family, it is classified by Glottolog 4.0 as an independent language family.
