Mirniny languages (green) among other Pama–Nyungan (tan).

The Mirning or Mirniny languages are a pair of Pama–Nyungan languages of the Nullarbor Coast of Australia.[1]

Galaagu (Kalarko) and Kalaamaya, once classified with Mirning as part of a Kalarko-Mirniny family,[2] are now considered closer to Nyungar.[citation needed]
