The Jarrakan (formerly Djeragan) languages are a small family of Australian Aboriginal languages spoken in northern Australia. The name is derived from the word jarrak, which means "language" in Kija.
The three main Jarrakan languages are:
- Jarrakan
- Kija (about 160 speakers)
- Miriwoongic
- Miriwoong (about 150 speakers)
- Gajirrawoong (3 or 4 speakers)
These are divided into two groups: Kijic, consisting of only Kija, and Miriwoongic, consisting of Miriwoong and Gajirrawoong; Dixon (2002) considers the latter to be a single language.
Doolboong may also have been a Jarrakan language, but this is uncertain as it is extinct and essentially unattested.
