The '''Ari''' language is a [[Papuan language]] of the [[Trans–New Guinea languages|Trans–New Guinea]] family. As of the 2000 census there were only 50 Ari speakers, living in two villages. As of 2010 the language is considered a [[dead language]]. The validity of this census is dubious as it was conducted in a country where the government is decentralized. Also the writer of this has first-hand experience in 2014 of speaking with Ari speakers.
