Ottilien languages
The Ottilien or Watam-Awar-Gamay languages are a small family of clearly related languages,
They are generally classified among the Ramu languages of northern Papua New Guinea.
The Ottilien languages are all spoken in Yawar Rural LLG, in locations mostly along the coast of Madang Province, Papua New Guinea.
Watam and Bosman share plural morphology with Lower Sepik (Nor–Pondo), supporting the Ramu – Lower Sepik language-family proposal.
The family is named for the mouth of the Ottilien River, now known as the Ramu.
Usher (2020) reconstructs the consonant inventory as follows:
Pronouns in proto-Watam-Awar-Gamay (proto-Ottilien) reconstructed by Foley (2005) are:
