Dyangadi is a possible small family of extinct or nearly extinct Australian Aboriginal languages of New South Wales:

  • Dyangadi
    • Nganyaywana a.k.a. Anaiwan
    • Dyangadi a.k.a. Burgadi

They were once included among the Kuric languages.

However, Bowern (2011) retains Dyangadi in Kuric, removing only Nganyaywana as a separate Anewan branch.
