/ˌpɑməˈnjʊŋən/

Forms: 1900s– Pama Nyungan, 1900s– Pama-Nyungan, 1900s– Pamanyungan.

Origin: A borrowing from Australian Aboriginal, combined with an English element. Etymons: Australian Aboriginal pama , nyungaa , -an suffix.

Etymology: < north-eastern Australian Aboriginal languages pama person, man + south-western Australian Aboriginal languages nyungaa person, man + -an suffix.This term was apparently coined by Kenneth Hale after the words for ‘person, man’ in the languages spoken at the north-eastern and south-western extremities of the language grouping; compare quot. 1962 at sense A. and the following:1964 K. Hale in Oceanic Linguistics 3 251 The term Paman is derived from the stem pama person and is applied as a tentative label for the family to which most..Peninsular languages belong.

A. n.

A proposed language family which comprises most of the Aboriginal languages of Australia, excluding those spoken in the north-west, and covers nine-tenths of the continent.Typical features of languages in this proposed grouping include ergative case marking on the agent of a transitive verb and suffixing of all derivational and inflectional affixes.

ΚΠ

1962 Oceanic Linguistics 1 19 As a preliminary result of his work, he [sc. Kenneth Hale] could establish that perhaps 85% of the Australian languages are very closely interrelated, with the remaining 15% forming a large number of small groups, each of them coordinate with the large group for which he proposes the name Pama-Nyungan.

1976 J. E. Hoard & G. N. O'Grady in R. M. W. Dixon Grammatical Categories in Austral. Langs. iii. 51 Nyangumarda belongs..within the Marngu subgroup of the Nyungic branch of Pama-Nyungan.

1980 R. M. W. Dixon Langs. of Austral. i. 21 The non-Pama-Nyungan tongues show much more diversity (and were grouped into twenty-odd further ‘families’, each said to be on a par with Pama-Nyungan).

1994 Sci. Amer. Jan. 107 Farther south in Australia there is a single, embracing language family, Pama-Nyungan.

2003 Jrnl. Royal Anthropol. Inst. (Nexis) 1 Mar. 181 Dixon debunks the long-held idea that there is such a genetic grouping as ‘Pama-Nyungan’.

B. adj.

Of, relating to, or designating Pama-Nyungan or the languages regarded as belonging to it.
