As is an Austronesian language spoken in the village of Asbaken, on the north coast of the Doberai Peninsula, on the Indonesian portion of the island of New Guinea.[1] It was possibly originally spoken on Gag Island.[2]
In 1987, Berry & Berry found approximately 300 speakers of As, but by 2020, Arnold found only six speakers, all elderly. The language is considered moribund as a result, though there is some interest among younger people in documenting the language before it is fully extinct.[1]
