Northern Tasmanian, or Tommeginne (Tommeeginnee, Tommyginny[2]), is an Aboriginal language of Tasmania in the reconstruction of Claire Bowern.[3]
Northern Tasmanian is attested from word lists collected on Flinders Island by Joseph Milligan, which were published in 1857[4] and 1859.[5] One, labeled "northwest tribes", contains 268[dubious – discuss] words; the other, labeled "western tribes", contains 369.[6]
