The Sentani languages form a language family in the "Bird's Head" Peninsula of western New Guinea. Sentani had been a branch of Stephen Wurm's proposal for Trans–New Guinea. The languages have lexical similarities with the Asmat–Kamoro languages, but Ross (2005) does not believe these demonstrate a genealogical relationship, and proposes instead that they are related to the East Bird's Head languages.
