Järawa or Jarwa is one of the Ongan languages. It is spoken by the Jarawa people inhabiting the interior and south central Rutland Island, central interior, and south interior South Andaman Island, and the west coast of Middle Andaman Island. Järawa means "foreigners" in Aka-Bea, the language of their traditional enemies. Like many peoples, they call themselves aong, "people". The Jarawa language of the Andaman Islands is considered vulnerable.
