The Jarrakan (formerly Djeragan) languages are a small family of Australian Aboriginal languages spoken in northern Australia. The name is derived from the word ''jarrak'', which means "language" in Kija. The three main Jarrakan languages are: *Kija (about 100 speakers) *Miriwoong (about 20 speakers) *Gajirrabeng (three or four speakers) These are divided into two groups: Kijic, consisting of only Kija, and Miriwoongic, consisting of Miriwoong and Gajirrabeng; Dixon (2002) considers the latter to be a single language. Doolboong may also have been a Jarrakan language, but this uncertain as it is extinct and essentially unattested. ==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「Jarrakan languages」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
