Comment
Comments: 
Oates and Oates (1970:218) also Djarn as a Wulamba dialect listed by Capell (1963) and recorded by Schebeck, but in her later work Oates (1975:386) deletes Djarn saying it is probably not a language name. Schebeck (2001) does not list Djarn. Given this, and the fact that there are no catalogue records in the collection containing this name, Djarn is described as unconfirmed.

Speaker numbers were measured differently across the censuses and various other sources listed in AUSTLANG. You are encouraged to refer to the sources.

Speaker numbers for ‘NILS 2004’ and ‘2005 estimate’ come from 'Table F.3: Numbers of speakers of Australian Indigenous languages (various surveys)' in 'Appendix F NILS endangerment and absolute number results' in McConvell, Marmion and McNicol 2005, pages 198-230 (PDF, 2.5MB).
