The Central New South Wales languages (Central NSW) are a largely geographic grouping of Australian Aboriginal languages within the traditional Pama–Nyungan family, partially overlapping the Kuri subgroup of the Yuin–Kuric languages.
The languages most often included are:
- Ngiyambaa, Gamilaraay)
- Nganyaywana)
- Worimi, Awabakal)
- Muruwarri
- Barranbinja
Bowern and Atkinson use the term Central NSW to group the Wiradhuric languages with Muruwaric.[1] Elsewhere it is known as Central Inland NSW.
