  • As part of State Library’s commitment to the 2019 International Year of Indigenous Languages, we will be promoting a ‘word of the week’ from one of the 125+ Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages and dialects from across Queensland.
    To start off the year, State Library’s Word of the Week is yulugi which is from the Gamilaraay language of South-Western Queensland and North-West New South Wales; it means ‘celebrate / to celebrate’. State Library of Queensland invites you to celebrate the 2019 International Year of Indigenous Languages as we raise awareness of the rich diversity of Queensland’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages.

    Join the conversation as we post a new word for each week!
