Boazi (Bwadji), also known as Kuni after one of its dialects, is a
Papuan language spoken in the
Western Province of
Papua New Guinea by the Bwadji people in the vicinity of
Lake Murray and is written using the Latin script, with ⟨æ⟩ for /ɛ/, ⟨ø⟩ for /ʌ/, and ⟨꞉⟩ for (relatively infrequent) vowel length. Some recordings of songs and stories have been made in this language.[2]
