Bunuban languages

Australian Language Families

The Bunuban languages, also called Bunaban, are a small family of Australian Aboriginal languages spoken in northern Australia. The family consists of two languages, Bunuba and Gooniyandi, which are related to each other to about the same degree that English is related to Dutch. Bunuba has about 100 speakers and Gooniyandi about 200, and both languages are endangered.
