A new Gamilaraay Yuwaalaraay language resource available for download.

Gayarragi, Winangali is an interactive multimedia resource for  
Gamilaraay and Yuwaalaraay, languages of northern New South Wales,  
Australia. It is a resource for language learners at all levels, and  
for anyone interested in the Gamilaraay and Yuwaalaraay languages. It  
contains extensive language material, including audio. The main  
features are:

     * a searchable Gamilaraay Yuwaalaraay Dictionary with over 2,600  
entries, all including audio

     * 957 spoken sentences from traditional speakers, all  
transcribed, and hyperlinked to the dictionary

     * 30 songs and 14 stories, all transcribed, and hyperlinked to  
the dictionary

     * games, including crosswords and memory/matching games

     * other language resources as pdf and text files

Gayarragi, Winangali was compiled by John Giacon and David Nathan. It  
was launched on Monday 23 March by Professor Larissa Behrendt, to an  
enthusiastic audience of nearly 80 people, including many Gamilaraay  
and Yuwaalaraay people, at the Koori Centre, University of Sydney. It  
was produced as a CD-ROM but is also available by download (about  
200MB, Win XP/Vista). It is free for individuals and Gamilaraay  
Yuwaalaraay organisations. Go to http://yuwaalaraay.org and follow the
