The Central New South Wales languages (Central NSW) are a geographic grouping of Australian Aboriginal languages within the traditional Pama–Nyungan family, partially overlapping the Kuri subgroup of the Yuin–Kuric languages.

The languages are:

  • Wiradhuric (Wiradhuri, Ngiyambaa, Gamilaraay)
  • Dyangadi (Dyangadi, Nganyaywana)
  • Worimi (Worimi, Awabakal)
  • Muruwarri
  • Barranbinja

    • Bowern (2011) uses the term Central NSW as a synonym for the Wiradhuric languages, elsewhere known as Central Inland NSW.
