Map of the Worrorran languages

The Worrorran (Wororan) languages are a small family of Australian Aboriginal languages spoken in northern Western Australia.

The Worrorran languages fall into three dialect clusters:

  • Worrorran
    • the Northern Worrorran group, known as Wunambal and related dialects
    • the Eastern Worrorran group, known as Ngarinyin, a.k.a. Ungarinyin, and related dialects
    • the Western Worrorran group, known as Worrorra, and related dialects

In addition, Gulunggulu is unattested but presumably a Worrorran lect.
