The Awyu languages are a cluster of Papuan languages in Indonesian New Guinea.
They number between five (bold below) and eleven, depending on one's criteria for a 'language':
South Awyu Bamgi River Awyu (Oser, Jénimu/Yenimu) Ia River Awyu (Sjìagha/Shiaxa) Southeast Awyu (Jair) Edera River Awyu Lower Kia River Awyu Upper Kia River Awyu Central and West Awyu North Awyu Central Awyu Mappi River Awyu (Aghu) Pasue River Awyu West Awyu Wildeman River Awyu (Pisà) Asue River Awyu Miaro River Awyu Kewet River Awyu
(The placement and diversity of North Awyu is uncertain, due to lack of data.)
