Karranga (purple), among the non-Pama-Nyungan languages (grey)

Karranga is an extinct, unclassified Aboriginal Australian language spoken by the Karrangpurru people.

McConvell suspects Karrangpurru was a dialect of Mudburra because people said it was similar. However, it is undocumented and thus formally unclassifiable.[1]
