===Dialects===
Guugu Yimithirr originally consisted of several dialects, although even the names of most have now been forgotten. Today, two main dialects are distinguished: the coastal dialect, called {{Lang|kky|dhalundhirr}} 'with the sea', and the inland dialect, called {{Lang|kky|waguurrga}} 'of the outside'.<ref name="austlangY167">{{Cite web |title=Y167: Dhalundhirr |url=https://collection.aiatsis.gov.au/austlang/language/Y167 |access-date=2022-06-10 |website=Australian Indigenous Languages Database |date=26 July 2019 |publisher=[[Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies]]}}</ref><ref name="austlangY168">{{Cite web |title=Y168: Waguurrga |url=https://collection.aiatsis.gov.au/austlang/language/Y168 |access-date=2022-06-10 |website=Australian Indigenous Languages Database |date=26 July 2019 |publisher=[[Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies]]}}</ref> [[Missionary|Missionaries]] used the coastal dialect to translate [[hymn]]s and [[Bible story|Bible stories]], so some of its words now have religious associations that the inland equivalents lack. There was once also a ''Ngegudi'' or ''Gugu Nyiguudyi'' dialect, which is unattested.<ref name="austlangY79">{{Cite web |title=Y79: Guugu-Nyiguudyi |url=https://collection.aiatsis.gov.au/austlang/language/Y79 |access-date=2022-06-10 |website=Australian Indigenous Languages Database |date=26 July 2019 |publisher=[[Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies]]}}</ref>
