Public Comment
"Yalata, Koonibba (Capell): only a few people still speak Mirning.""O'Grady, Voegelin and Voegelin (1966:134): '10 speakers over an area of a million square miles (as far dispersed as Carnarvon and South Australia)'."
"Maureen Young, a descendant of Mirning and Ngatjumaya speakers says (p.c.) that there are no more speakers of Mirning."
