The Hawu AKA Havu language historically Sawu and known to outsiders as Savu or Sabu (thus Havunese Savunese Sawunese) is the language of Savu Island in Indonesia and of Raijua Island off the western tip of Savu. Traditionally classified as a Sumba language in the Austronesian family it may actually be a non-Austronesian (Papuan) language. (See Savu languages for details.) Dhao once considered a dialect is not mutually intelligible with Hawu.
