Woria is a nearly extinctPapuan language of theIndonesian province ofPapua, on the eastern shore ofCenderawasih Bay. It is spoken in Botawa village,Waropen Regency, where the Lakes Plain languageSaponi was also spoken.[2]
Woria is lexically similar to theEast Geelvink Bay languages and presumably belongs in that family, but is too poorly attested to be sure.
