Yangkaal · 16.7°S 138.0°E

The Yangkaal language, also known as Yanggaralda, Janggal, Gananggalinda, Nemarang, among other names, is an extinct Australian Aboriginal language. Geoffrey O'Grady grouped it as a variety of Yukulta within the Tangkic language family. The implication was that "Yanggal" was simply an alternative name for "Njangga", which is an alternative ethnonym for the Yanyula (Yanyuwa), from which the word Yanggal may have derived.
