The Wati languages are the dominant Pama–Nyungan languages of central Australia. They include the moribund Wanman language and the Western Desert dialect continuum, which is sometimes considered to be a dozen distinct languages. It is not clear whether Antakarinya is Warnman or Western Desert.[citation needed]
Bowern (2011) adds Ngardi,[1] which had previously been classified as Ngumpin–Yapa.
Wati is generally included in Southwest Pama–Nyungan by those who accept that proposal.[2] However, SW Pama–Nyungan may be an areal group, and is not included in Bowern (2011).
