Kovojab (Kovojap, Kvolyab, Kopoyap) is a Bayono–Awbono language spoken in the highlands of Papua Province, Indonesia.

All that is known of Kovojab is a few hundred words recorded in Wilbrink (2004).[1] The Kovojab word list in Wilbrink (2004) was originally recorded by Peter Jan de Vries.

Names

Ethnologue gives the name Kvolyab as an alternative name for Awbono.[2] However, Glottolog classifies Kovojab with Bayono rather than with Awbono.

The name Kopoyap is given by Hischier (2006).[3]
