Gumbaynggirr

Gumbaynggirr is an Aboriginal language spoken by the Gumbaynggirr people, an Indigenous group from the mid-north coast of New South Wales, Australia. It reflects the culture, history, and connection to the land of its speakers. Like many Indigenous languages, Gumbaynggirr is integral to the identity of its community and contains unique concepts tied to local ecology and social structures. Efforts are ongoing to revitalize the language through education and community programs, recognizing its significance not only as a means of communication but also as a vital part of Australia’s cultural heritage.
