The Ngiyambaa language is a Pama–Nyungan language of the Wiradhuric subgroup. It was the traditional language of the Wangaaybuwan
and Wayilwan peoples of New South Wales, Australia, but is now moribund; according to Donaldson by the 1970s there were only
about ten people fluent in Wangaaybuwan, whilst there were only a couple of Wayilwan speakers left. Ngiyambaa (meaning language),
or Ngiyambaambuwali, was also used by the Waangaybuwan and Wayilwan to describe themselves, whilst 'Waangaybuwan' and 'Wayilwan'
(meanining 'With Waangay/Wayil' were used to distinguish both the language and the speakers from others who did not have wangaay/wayil
for no. |
