Duwet language (gve)

Also Known As: Duwet Language,Guwet,Guwot,Waing Description: Duwet, also known as Guwot or Waing, is an aberrant member of the Busu subgroup of Lower Markham languages in Morobe Province, Papua New Guinea. Duwet is spoken by about 400 people and appears to have been heavily influenced by its neighboring Nabak language (also called Wain) of the Papuan Trans–New Guinea languages. Traditional Duwet numerals include only three basic forms: 'one', 'two', and 'hand (= five)'. ^ Susanne Holzknecht (1989). The Markham Languages of Papua New Guinea. Pacific Linguistics.
