Pirriya language

Pirriya (Birria, Bidia) is an extinct, unclassified Australian Aboriginal language. Geographically it lay between the Karnic and Maric languages, but had no obvious connection to either; the data is too poor to draw any conclusions on classification.[3] Another language by the same name was Maric.
