Language: Pulau (Arguni)
| Source/Author: | Blust, from Grace Notebooks |
| Identifiers: | ISO-639-3:agf Glottocode: argu1237 |
| Notes: | "In conclusion, then, the language of Arguni Island may be a divergent member of the North Bomberai group, or its similarity to these languages may be a product of borrowing as a result of prolonged contact between small language communities." (Blust, 1993, p.274) |
