Ngarinyin or Ungarinyin is the traditional language of the Wilinggin Native Title Determined Area, in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Ngarinyin speaking people are linked to Worrorra and Wunambal people through their law and belief in the Wanjina creator being. These days only old people speak Ngarinyin well.
This app is designed for people of all ages, to enable and increase use of the Ngarinyin language. The hope is that younger people will use the Ngarinyin they have learnt from this app to better understand Ngarinyin country and keep the language alive. It provides a companion resource to the book 'Bunda Ngaala-gu di Wuran-gu Wurlawa Ngadi: We are Talking about Animals and Trees'. The content in this app is the same as that in the book but with extra features and a few extra photos.
