Interesting Facts
Enga holds a unique position as the most widely spoken indigenous language in New Guinea, second only to Papuan Malay overall. This translation carries profound cultural significance for the East New Guinea Highlands region. The language's rich expressiveness is beautifully demonstrated in its rendering of John 3:16:
"Dopana, Goteme yuunya endakali dupa etete auu kayamo dokome kapa lao baanya Ikiningi mendai iki doko maiya. Doko lao masoo minatamino endakali doko pitaka alu napyoo lete katawaka katataminopa lao maiya."
As a Trans-New Guinea language from the Engan family, it represents the linguistic heritage of one of the world's most diverse regions.
