Download coordinates as: Watiwa is a Rai Coast language of Papua New Guinea.
It is spoken by some 500 people living in six villages in Madang Province, Papua New Guinea, including Bebei (5°51′43″S 145°42′43″E / 5.861935°S 145.711953°E / -5.861935; 145.711953 (Bembe)) and Dumpu (5°53′20″S 145°44′10″E / 5.888972°S 145.736011°E / -5.888972; 145.736011 (Dumpu / Taborabo 1 and 2)) villages of Usino Rural LLG.
[2][3] It is more commonly known as Dumpu, but this is the name of one of the six villages, and is not accepted as a name for the language.
Surviving mostly as a secret language with which to talk amongst themselves when outsiders are present,[4] the majority of the speakers use Tok Pisin in daily life.
Due to its increasingly rare use, it is estimated that this language will be extinct in a few decades.
