      Hi we have to come up with a name for our group which is doing Design Area 6.1. Can we use the Yirrganydji word for water in the title? Do you know where we can find a dictionary of their words, that is, if we are allowed to use them for our project name, and if it is appropriate. Thank you.

        Hi Ruth,

        Yes, you can incorporate words from the Yirrgay dialect into your design. We’ve compiled some words in our resource page. Check out Resources> Yirrgay dialect.

        Regards,
        Jean
