Abstract
This paper provides a sketch of the phonetics and phonology of Tomoip, an Austronesian
language of New Britain, Papua New Guinea. Tomoip does not appear to be closely related to
the other Austronesian languages of New Britain. Furthermore, it has been in contact with
multiple non-Austronesian languages of the island. These two facts suggest that the language
may have had a particularly interesting history. As the first publication dedicated to Tomoip,
this paper is intended to serve as a starting point for further description, analysis, and
classification of the language.
