Abau
Sepik-Sprachen (Obersepik)
Abau ist eine Papuasprache der Untergruppe Ober-Sepik der Sepik-Sprachfamilie, die von etwa 7.500 Menschen entlang des Sepik-Flusses in der Provinz Sandaun in Papua-Neuguinea nahe der indonesischen Grenze gesprochen wird. Bemerkenswert ist sie für das einfachste phonemische Inventar aller Sepik-Sprachen sowie für ein gut dokumentiertes System der Pfeifsprache, das über große Entfernungen verwendet wird. Sie verfügt über ein achtklassiges Nomengenussystem mit einem ausgefeilten Verwandtschaftswortschatz, der zwischen den von männlichen und weiblichen Sprechern verwendeten Begriffen unterscheidet.
