Hi Bex !!!That's a great list!Naya and Balun... What language your counsin' wife's speaks? There are so many Indigenous Australian languages. It would be great to know what it is.

I'm not sure exactly which language they come from. I know her family has ties to Biripi and Kamilaroi countries, but I know her family has ties to more as she is very proud of her heritage and her family has pretty detailed knowledge of what different countries her relatives are from.
