Orya–Tor Languages
The Orya–Tor languages are a family of just over a dozen Papuan languages spoken in Western New Guinea, Indonesia. Classification The Tor family, named after the Tor River, is clearly established. Its closest relative appears to be Orya. Stephen Wurm (1975) linked Orya and the Tor languages with the Lakes Plain languages, forming a branch of his Trans–New Guinea phylum. Clouse (1997) found no evidence of such a connection. Malcolm Ross (2005) linked them instead with part of another erstwhile branch of TNG in a Tor–Kwerba proposal, and Usher makes a broadly similar proposal. ''Glottolog'' accepts only the link with Orya as having been demonstrated. Languages Foley (2018) Foley (2018) provides the following classification. Foley considers the inclusion of Sause within the Tor family to be questionable due to insufficient lexical evidence.
