Kala Lagaw Ya Language
Kalaw Lagaw Ya, or the Western Torres Strait language, is the language indigenous to the central and western Torres Strait Islands, Queensland, Australia. On some islands it has now largely been replaced by Brokan. Before colonisation in the 1870s–1880s, it was the major lingua franca of the area in both Australia and Papua, and is still widely spoken by neighbouring Papuans and by some Aboriginal people. However many second language speakers it has is unknown. It also has a "cut-it-short" form, as well as a pidginised form. The simplified form is fairly prevalent on Badu [Badhu] and neighbouring Moa, particularly among younger people.
