Mor is a nearly extinct Trans–New Guinea language of Indonesia. It is spoken along the Budidi River and the Bomberai River on the Bomberai Peninsula.[2]

Classification

It may form a tentative independent branch of that family in the classification of Malcolm Ross (2005), but Palmer (2018) classifies it as a language isolate.[3] However, the only connections are the 1sg and 2sg pronouns na- and a-:

sg pl
1 na-ya ne-a
2 a-ya omase
3 mena morimene

Usher classifies it with the other Trans–New Guinea languages of the Berau Gulf.[4]

Nouns

Nominal inflection for number in Mor is limited to only certain animate nouns, such as mor ‘man’ and mor-ir ‘men’. Other nouns do not inflect for number, such as is ‘bird/birds’.[2]: 97
