Nhanda
Pama-Nyungan
Nhanda (also Nanda or Nhanta) is a critically endangered Pama-Nyungan Aboriginal language of the Murchison-Gascoyne mid-coast of Western Australia, near Geraldton and Kalbarri. The language has ~30 fluent elderly speakers plus ~60 partial speakers among the broader ~750 ethnic Nhanda population. Nhanda preserves classical Pama-Nyungan features including ergative-absolutive alignment, suffixing nominal morphology, and rich kinship terminology. The Blevins 2001 reference grammar (Nhanda Aboriginal Language) made the language accessible to academic linguistics, and the community-led Nhanda Aboriginal Language Centre supports ongoing revitalization through school programs, oral history projects, and the Wajarri-Nhanda Cultural Centre.
