Trans–New Guinea Central and South New Guinea? Mek? Momuna

The Momuna languages, Momina and Momuna, also known as Somahai, are a family of two closely related Papuan languages. Their pronouns, singular *na, *ka, *mo, are typically Trans–New Guinea, and they were placed in the Central and South New Guinea branch of that family by Wurm, though Ross could not locate enough evidence to classify them.
