The two groups are Nangga (west) and Yura–Kadli (east) }} The Yura or Thura-Yura languages are a group of Australian Aboriginal languages surrounding Spencer Gulf and Gulf St Vincent in South Australia, that comprise a genetic language family of the Pama–Nyungan family. The name Yura comes from the word for "person" in the northern languages; this is a lenited form of the thura found in other languages, hence Thura-Yura. Similar words for "person" are found in languages outside the group, however. The following classification is proposed by Bowern & Koch (2004):[1]
A Nukunu speaker reported that the Nukunu could understand Barngarla and Kuyani, but not more distant varieties.[1] Peramangk may have been a southern Thura-Yura language, close to Kaurna. Dixon (2002) lists a Nantuwara language, but there is no data for it. References1. ^1 Bowern & Koch (2004) Australian Languages: Classification and the Comparative Method
