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.
