lang_description: "Note on Australian languages with no known speakers: For some languages, we haven't been able to confirm speaker numbers. In other cases, there isn't anyone who has grown up speaking the language, but there are still people who identify with the language, and who are working to revitalize their languages. We've chosen to include these languages in the Catalogue for this reason.",

public_comment: ""The Juru-Gnaro-Gia tribes of the coastal people between Ayr and Whitsunday and Proserpine speak The Birri-Gubba Language. Inland tribal groups of Biria and Janga & Wiri also speak Birri-Gubba Language with a slightly different dialect in some words, but communicate quite effectively. Our Language has been slowly introduced into schools, churches and youth groups and wider community. We have produced a set of Animal Language card games. We are now working on a dictionary book and also a storybook in Language and English."",
