• How many languages are spoken in Papua New Guinea? I think it is a few thousands. At least a few hundreds only on the island of New Britain I suppose. - Darwinek 19:49, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
• I was reading a book about dying languages, and I remember that it said something like 1500 languages. --Dangherous 19:12, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
• Category:Languages of Papua New Guinea would be a good place to start.--nixie 03:46, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
