The Admiralty Islands languages are a group of some thirty Oceanic languages spoken on the Admiralty Islands. They may include Yapese, which has proven difficult to classify.
Languages
According to Lynch, Ross, & Crowley (2002), the structure of the family is:[1]
- Eastern
- Western
- Northern Kaniet and Southern Kaniet (†)
- Seimat
- Wuvulu-Aua (as two languages)
As noted, Yapese and Nguluwan may be part of the Admiralty Islands languages as well.
