The Wiradhuric languages or Central inland New South Wales subgroup form one of the subgroups of the Pama-Nyungan family of Australian Aboriginal languages. They consist of three languages:
*Wiradhuri, after which the family is named,
*Ngiyambaa,
*and Gamilaraay.All of these languages are now moribund.

Wiradhuri and Ngiyambaa are more closely related to each other than to Gamilaraay, as they show some common features that Gamilaraay lacks.
