Wiradjuri (/wəˈrædʒʊri/;[2] many other spellings, see Wiradjuri) is a Pama–Nyungan language of the Wiradhuric subgroup. It is the traditional language of the Wiradjuri people, an Aboriginal Australian people of New South Wales, Australia. Wiraiari and Jeithi may have been dialects.[3][4]
A revival is under way, with the language being taught in schools, TAFE college, and at Charles Sturt University.
