Barunggam (Murrumningama) is an extinct Aboriginal language spoken by the Barunggam peopleofQueenslandinAustralia.[2] The Barunggam language shared many words with the neighboring languages, including Jarowair to the east, Wakka Wakka to the north and Mandandanji to the west.[3] Kite and Wurm describe Barunggam as a dialect of Wakka Wakka.[1]

"Headwaters of Condamine River east of Jackson to about Dalby; north about Charley Creek to Dividing Ranges and west to Wongorgera and Woleebee; south to Tara; at 165 Chinchilla and Jandowae. Their country is on the red soils south and west of the Dividing Range".[4]
