Rawo is a Papuan language in the Skou family, spoken on the north coast of Papua New Guinea in the vicinity of the village of Leitre. The language of Leitre itself is a dialect of the Vanimo language (also known as Dumo). Although Rawo and Vanimo are both in the Skou family, they are in different branches of the family.
