Note on Australian languages with no known speakers: For some languages, we haven't been able to confirm speaker numbers. In other cases, there isn't anyone who has grown up speaking the language, but there are still people who identify with the language, and who are working to revitalize their languages. We've chosen to include these languages in the Catalogue for this reason.

Information from: “Butchulla Language Program” . Our Languages
"The preservation of language and culture has been a strong focus of the Korrawinga Aboriginal Corporation. Traditional dance, fishing, horticulture, weaving, sewing, beading and woodwork are some of the activities offered for young and old. The Butchulla Language Program has been a particularly successful outcome from Korrawinga's work. The program owes much of its strength to the involvement of the young members of the community, who use tools such as story telling, oral histories, games, song and dance to teach and keep their language alive. Language programs are run in conjunction with after school, the respite centre, the detention centre, and the Uni of South Qld."

Jeanie Bell's master's thesis provides a linguistic analysis of the materials from historical sources.
Information from:
Speaker numbers are unclear; the program focuses on intergenerational transmission and on language teaching from existing materials.
