Classification
Kaki Ae has been proposed to be related to the Eleman languages, but the connections appear to be loans.[3] Søren Wichmann (2013)[4] tentatively considers it to be a separate, independent group. Pawley and Hammarström (2018) treat Kaki Ae as a language isolate due to low cognacy rates with Eleman, and consider the few similarities shared with Eleman to be due to borrowed loanwords.[5]
Distribution
Kaki Ae is spoken in Auri, Kupiano, Kupla (7.990545°S 145.790882°E), Lou (8.015988°S 145.813268°E), Ovorio (7.987255°S 145.809446°E), and Uriri (7.978345°S 145.794638°E) villages in Central Kerema Rural LLG, Gulf Province.[6][7]

Phonology
Kaki Ae has no distinction between /t/ and /k/. (The forms kaki and tate of the name both derive from the rather pejorative Toaripi name for the people, Tati.)
