Ideally, too, a Two-Way School would also have access to a Literacy Production Centre with one or more Indigenous Literacy Workers who both produce materials and support the teaching program. Although there are still an incredible range of ' ad hoc spellings' for words in Aboriginal languages, most languages now have what are called 'standardised orthographies', ie there is generally a right way to spell words if people just take the time to find out. …was the growth of the Aboriginal movement.

Speakers often reject the name Kriol because they have often been 'shamed' for speaking 'rubbish language'. the first syllable is the 'heaviest' one), unlike English, where the position of stress varies from word to word, and is often not on the first syllable. If you come into contact with a language that you want to learn about, find out if there is a guide to the orthography (spelling system) so you can work out what sounds the letters represent. Ideally, a Two-Way program is supported by a Teacher Linguist, whose role it is to oversee and support both the first language and ESL programs. When Truganini did reappear in early October, Wooredy was ecstatic with gratitude, attributing her return to the awesome power of Robinson’s magic paper. There are probably around 4500-6000 speakers in all (Henderson and Dobson 1994). Within a language family, overlapping dialects/languages share common vocabulary and grammatical features, and the distinctions between the dialects may be quite minimal. Spoken approximately 300 kilometres to the north of Alice Springs. As English is the default language throughout Australia, people in Tasmania primarily speak English.However, there are different ethnic groups, all of which have their own language. Arandic 'e': Arandic languages also use the letter e, which takes on the following vowel sounds: after w and before a consonant, it has the sound 'u' as in "put"; after y , and before a consonant, it has the vowel sound 'ee' as in "speed"; otherwise it spells a neutral vowel, not unlike the e in "the", or the u in "but". in Ngaanyatjarra it is written with a 'double r' and in Pitjantjatjara with a 'single r'. ng & ngk: As stated, ng spells a single sound ng, like the ng in singer, not like the ng in finger – that would be written ngk as in 'mingkulpa' (bush tobacco).

Here are a few simple hints for pronouncing words that are written in their standard orthography. It is only relatively recently that Central Australian Aboriginal languages have been written down, from about 100 years ago for the earliest languages to some languages that are just beginning to be written today.

Speakers of Pintupi tend to come from across the border in the WA desert region around Kiwirrkura community. Eastern Anmatyerr is spoken at Stirling (Ilewerr). High mobility, intermarriage and historical factors have resulted in many Aboriginal people in Central Australia being able to speak not only their own vernacular (community language), but one or more other Aboriginal languages as well as English. This label is confusing as it also refers to the original landowners around Haasts Bluff (Heffernan and Heffernan 1999:5), as well as to dialects that were spoken in SA and Qld. Spoken further to the north and includes the communities in the Utopia homelands, Ammaroo (Amperlatwaty), Epenarra (Wetenngerr), Murray Downs, Alekarenge, Canteen Creek, Lake Nash (Ilperrelhelam) and also Tennant Creek. A second reason for mispronunciation is that the letters used in writing Aboriginal languages may have a different value in the Aboriginal language than is common in English.

A dialect spoken by only a few families around the WA border communities of Tjukurla, Warakurna, Blackstone (Papulankutja) and Docker River (Kaltukutjara). She was widely, but wrongly, believed to have been the last Aboriginal person to have survived the Tasmanian genocide. Notwithstanding the encouragement of Robinson and her father, Truganini was not about to transfer her psychosexual attachment to her ageing suitor.

Aboriginal Tasmanians are not extinct. The language families are known as Arandic, Ngarrkic and Western Desert. Since then, colonial rules systematically stripped Indigenous peoples of their languages through English-only education policies […] This is now quite close to the Common Arandic Writing System, e.g. A family of closely related languages includes a number of varieties of Arrernte, Anmatyerr and Alyawarr which comprise a network of mutually intelligible dialects, and Kaytetye which is a separate language. Soon the movement’s goals moved beyond recognition of Aboriginal identity to the pursuit of land rights. Other people speak Aboriginal English as their first language. So although at the end of the Whitlam Government there were 22 Bilingual schools, there are now only 11 in the whole of the Northern Territory.

There are various ideas about the origin of the term Luritja, one being that it comes from the Arrernte word for non-Arrernte people, Ulerenye.
