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][failed verification]

Galaagu (Kalarko) and Kalaamaya, once thought to be related to Mirning, turn out to be closer to Nyungar.[citation needed]
