Nukumanu Language in Papua New Guinea – New Testament completed.
http://www.wycliffeassociates.org/prayer/prayerdetail.asp?id=4052
Papua New Guinea: Bible Translators have completed the New Testament in the Nukumanu language, a community on Tasman Island north of Bougainville. The village celebrated the launching of their New Testament on February 4. This milestone was reached after more than ten years of hard work in the translation process.
The Nukumanu people number over 700 and live on Tasman Island in Papua New Guinea. Not be confused with Tasmania south of Australia.
Needed: Linguists who can help survey the Romani languages in Eastern Europe.
Europe: The Roma (gypsy) peoples, starting from India hundreds of years ago, spread across the Middle East and Europe.
They are found in almost every country across this region. The Romani languages diverged and multiplied as the speakers adapted to the languages around them.
It is estimated that there are two or three varieties of Romani in each country in Europe, but much more survey needs to be done to provide a clear picture.
Needed are gifted linguists into the exacting work of language survey.
