AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINAL LANGUAGES

- Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
Australia is home to hundreds of Indigenous languages, though the exact count is uncertain, ranging from around 250 to possibly 363. These languages belong to numerous language families and isolates, possibly up to 13 in total, spoken by Indigenous peoples across mainland Australia and nearby islands. The relationships between these language families remain unclear, with proposals to group some together. Despite this uncertainty, they collectively fall under the term "Australian languages" or the "Australian family", which also includes Tasmanian languages and the Western Torres Strait language, though their genetic connection to mainland Australian languages is unknown. As of the early 21st century, fewer than 150 Aboriginal languages were in daily use, with the majority highly endangered, and by 2020, over 90% of the barely more than 100 still spoken were considered endangered, with only thirteen still being actively transmitted to children, mostly located in isolated areas.

De, dhoma nyin dhajuba Andy! Hello, dearest sister Andy, from Yorta Yorta country! Your channel is such a valuable resource, keep up the amazing work 🖤💛❤
Thank you so much for your support!!! 🧡🧡🧡
The Australian languages show so much variety. Wonderful!
4:24 that's a mouthful
Considering she's the only native speaker, "hello" can be whatever the hell she claims it to be 😂

Please video about Proto-Pama-Nyungan language - the ancestor of the majority of Australian Aboriginal languages.
It's important to know that Australian Aboriginal cultures are generally poorly studied. The languages and the relationships between them aren't nearly as well understood as most languages in Afro-Eurasia are. I say this because the Pama-Nyungan family is really more of a hypothesis than a linguistic fact; to my knowledge nobody has been able to reconstruct a proto language. Imo, Robert Dixon's case that it's a sprachbund makes sense given what we understand about Australian prehistory.
@@azazelazelAustralian aboriginal culture, languages etc not being researched much or well is really sad
@@Victoria08822 tis a sad thing as their level of intelligence and connection to the land has never really been respected or valued by white western society. Luckily we’re coming to a reckoning and new horizons are opening up for young students who have an interest and want to perpetuate the further study and analysis of this beautiful language and culture that has been as yet unstudied.
I’ve been waiting for this! Thank you Andy

It’s so unfortunate how almost all indigenous Australian languages are dead or dying..
All this is the fault of England and their colonialism, what good things has England given us?
@@eduardobenitez4584nothing, they killed in Australia, in North America, in Africa, everywhere, such an infectious behaviour
Unlike the Spaniards, and similarly to the Dutch and the Portuguese, the British seldom cared to write grammatical texts about the languages of the native peoples they came in contact with, sadly many cultures have been lost forever in this way since they either got completely anglicised or died out without passing their customs and culture to the younger generations.

australian aboriginal languages show so much variety.. Wonderful! Australian native-Aboriginal languages!
1:30 Skip to this part, for a start.
Great video thanks.
This is so cool! I love this style of video!
The original Australians, the Aboriginal people.
Descendants of the Dravidians.
I notice that my particular region of the derwent valley is blank, no tibal name. That's because we assimilated into the settler population, not because the region was uninhabited.
Ayyang ❤❤❤
Kaya!
Kaya means rich in Indonesian and Malaysian
kaya!

Our country was previously colonized by the Dutch for 350 years and after that it was colonized by Japan for 3.5 years, our country is still not affected by 100% Dutch and Japanese language.
Greetings of peace.
indonesia?
That's because the Dutch didn't try to eradicate your people and replace them with settlers, thankfully! The Japanese had a plan to do so, but fortunately failed after their defeat in WW2. 🇮🇩
@@teehee4096 The dutch helped clean up tasmania over a century ago. The native survivors assimilated into white culture. Then in the 90s during a recession our government thought we'd be too politicially unstable without a "black culture" they could manipulate to keep us away from land rights. So they invented palawa culture. And due to the palawa, DNA testing is not allowed as a means of proving indigenous ancestry.
The Dutch did a lot of harm but unlike the British, they are an honest culture. British will invent an entire tribe to justify their political goals.
@@tinfoilhomer909 The lack of distinction between Indigenous Tasmanian groups has nothing to do with recession, and everything to do with genocidal policies of Tasmania,
@@teehee4096The Dutch actually did it.

tribute to Mr. Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu, an australian aboriginal singer, I love their aboriginal song, Wiyathul. greeting from Indonesia.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very interesting.
Most Australian “languages” are just dialects of each other. I’d say there’s probably only like a little more than 10 Australian languages and hundreds of dialects. There are a few different language families in the north then the rest is the Paman-Nyugan language family which has some distinctive subdivision. The Torres Strait Island languages are a completely thing, they’re Papuan not Australian, they’re just legally in Australia so are grouped together with Australian languages
I think sounds similar to Dravidians
How similar or different are they?
Why you forgot Kala-Lagaw-Ya language? 🥺😭
Some of these sound similar to the South Asian and Southeast Asian Languages.
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!~ It's Very Funny At 2:15 If You Speak Malay / Indonesian, You Will Hear It Like A Swear Words!
Borongan, mborong jamot

Wow I'm surprised you got aboriginal languages here.
You can pretty much guarantee these languages evolved in isolate from the Dravidian homeland.
I have no doubt the Aborigines we originally from Tamil origin.
Good but I miss the Australian English video
Kaayi!!

Very interesting that some of these have the retroflex sound which is found almost exclusively in the Indian subcontinent. Looks like there is some distant relation between Indian and Aboriginal Australian groups.
Come to Norway and you will get surprised of the sounds we use
Many languages have the voiceless retroflex fricative ʂ, I guess you're talking about the other sounds
@@amerain1729 I was talking about other sounds, e.g. the one at 2:12
I had never heard this sound anywhere outside South Asia before this video. Does this exist in other languages as well?
There isn’t any
@@vishalsah5879 to me it sounds like what we call a thick L. It's very common in Norwegian (mostly from the south eastern part of the country to Romsdalen and further north) as well as swedish dialects bordering Norway. You hear it in words like Blå (blue) but also in words with 'rd' like Gård (farm) so it's pronounced like "gawL". Also some spanish (in the caribbean you can hear "Mi amor" sounding like "Mi amoL" and northern portuguese accent (Braga -> BLaga, Guimarães -> GimLaish) has that too)

Too much
