Kambot language

Compared to its nearest relative, Ambakich, Kambot drops the first segment from polysyllabic words.Foley (2005) finds the data does not support this assignment, but re-adds them to the Grass family in 2018.[5] Foley and Ross (2005) agree that the language belongs to the Ramu – Lower Sepik family.That is, the Iatmul may have called the Kambot nyɨn "you", and they then used that pronoun for themselves, resulting in it meaning "I".Similarly, the Iatmul pronouns have not been borrowed from Kambot, as they have cognates in other Ndu languages.
