Thiin, also spelled Thiinma, is a Pama-Nyungan language of the Mantharta branch of the Kanyara-Mantharta group, traditionally spoken in the southern Pilbara region of Western Australia, and unlike its three sister varieties it was reported as still spoken as of 2026. It is one of four mutually intelligible members of the Mantharta dialect cluster, alongside Tharrgari, Warriyangka and Jiwarli, a group distinguished from the neighboring Ngayarda languages within the wider Pama-Nyungan family.
