 | Too little is known of their languages to be able to classify them, although they seem to have had some phonological similarities with languages of the mainland. |
| These languages share the phonology and grammar of the standard language, but the lexicon is different and usually very restricted. |
| Most Australian languages are commonly held to belong to the Pama-Nyungan family, a family by no means unproblematic but still accepted by most linguists (with RMW Dixon as a noted exception). |

| Australian languages, aboriginal languages spoken on the continent of Australia. |
| The Australian languages do not appear to be related to any other linguistic family. |
| The exact number of these languages and their dialects is not known, but has been estimated at about 200. |
