Yali (Yaly, Jalè, Jaly) is aPapuan language of Indonesian New Guinea. TheYali people live east of theBaliem Valley, in the Western Highlands.

Dialectical differentiation is great enough thatEthnologue assigns separate codes to three varieties:

  • Pass Valley, also known as Abenaho, North Ngalik, and Western Yali; subdialects are Pass Valley, Landikma, Apahapsili.
  • Ninia, also known as North Ngalik and Southern Yali (Yali Selatan).
  • Angguruk, also known as Northern Yali.

However, almost nothing is known of this language. Not even the pronouns were attested for Ross (2005) to base a classification on.

Siegfried Zoellner, a German missionary, has between 1960 and 1973 translated the bible into the Yali language.
