Numanggang (Manggang) is a language of Papua New Guinea.
Numanggang is preferred over Tok Pisin in the village court because its use is believed to have a calming effect on proceedings.
[1] The alternate names for Numanggang are Boana, Kai, Manggang, Ngain, Numangan, Numangang, and Sugu.
[2] The letter Ɋ, also known as Q with hook tail, was introduced by Lutheran missionaries in Papua New Guinea for use in the Numanggang language in the 1930s or 1940s.
