Jarawa language

In Aongəŋ (Jarawa), "Hello" is "Nǣngǃa". The Jarawa people, native to the Andaman Islands off the coast of India, have their own unique language that's part of the Andamanese language family. An interesting fact: Despite being endangered with fewer than 100 fluent speakers, the Jarawa language continues to evolve, incorporating loanwords from Indian languages like Hindi and Bengali due to increased contact.
