Abstract | This document presents a classification of Western Queensland aboriginal languages based on a lexicostatistic methodology. Over 50 languages are considered and compared according to a cognate test list of 250 words. The resultant subgroups and groups are described and classified. An appendix includes the word list used for comparison and the terms found in each language. A second appendix presents a classification of the Janda languages. (VM) |
