Worrorra language
Worrorra (Worora), or ''Western Worrorran'', is a moribund Australian Aboriginal language of northern Western Australia.
Worrorra is a dialect cluster; Bowern (2011) recognizes five languages: Worrorra proper, Unggumi, Yawijibaya, Unggarranggu, and Umiida.〔Bowern, Claire. 2011. "(How Many Languages Were Spoken in Australia? )", ''Anggarrgoon: Australian languages on the web'', December 23, 2011 ((corrected ) February 6, 2012)〕
An alleged ''Maialnga'' language was a reported clan name of Worrorra proper that could not be confirmed with speakers (Tyndale 1974).
==Sign language==
The Worora have (or at one point had) a signed form of their language, used for speaking to kin in certain taboo relationships,〔Love, J.R.B. (1941). ''Worora kinship gestures'', Reprinted in ''Aboriginal sign languages of the Americas and Australia.'' New York: Plenum Press, 1978, vol. 2, pp. 403–405.〕 but it is not clear from records that it was particularly well developed compared to other Australian Aboriginal sign languages.〔Kendon, A. (1988) ''Sign Languages of Aboriginal Australia: Cultural, Semiotic and Communicative Perspectives.'' Cambridge: Cambridge University Press〕
