Anuki language

The Anuki language is an Austronesian language spoken by the Gabobora people along Cape Vogel in the Milne Bay Province of Papua New Guinea. The language was named after a highly respected deity of the people, whose sacred remains now rest in Australia.[citation needed]

a /ɨ/ is only found in the diphthong /ɨi/.

Additionally, the following diphthongs can be found: /ɨi/, /ae/, /ai/, /au/, /ei/, /eo/, /eu/, /iu/, /oe/, /oi/. /ɨi/ is written as ⟨ii⟩.

Stress is always found on the penultimate syllable.
