Gooniyandi
50 speakers
0 language specific characters
ISO 639 code: gni
Gooniyandi is a member of the Bunuban language family, along with Bunuba, and is spoken by about 50 people in Fitzroy Crossing in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia, and in a number of outstation communities in the river areas between there and Halls Creek.
A system of spelling Gooniyandi in the Latin alphabet was adopted by the community in 1984, and subsequently revised in 1990 and again in 1999. It is not phonemic, as it omits some distinctions made in speech.
Gooniyandi is not being passed on to children, however since 1982 various programmes have been developed to teach it to Gooniyandi children in some schools, and increasing numbers of children are using the language on a daily basis.
