The Gippsland languages are a family of Pama–Nyungan languages of Australia.〔Bowern, Claire. 2011. "(How Many Languages Were Spoken in Australia? )", ''Anggarrgoon: Australian languages on the web'', December 23, 2011 ((corrected ) February 6, 2012)〕 They are spoken in the Gippsland region, the southernmost part of mainland Australia, on the Bass Strait. There are three rather distant branches; these often considered single languages, though the dialects of Gaanay are sometimes counted separately: *Gaanay (Kurnai): Muk-thang, Nulit, Thangquai, Bidhawal *Dhudhuroa *Pallanganmiddang All are now extinct. The Gippsland languages, especially Gaanay, have phonotactics that are unusual for mainland Australian languages, but characteristic of Tasmanian languages. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gippsland languages」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
