Mpakwithi dialect

Mpakwithi is an extinct Australian Aboriginal dialect of Queensland.

Mpakwithi is generally regarded as a dialect of a broader Anguthimri language, which is part of the Northern Paman family.

While other Anguthimri dialects and Northern Paman languages have three fricatives, /β ð ɣ/, Mpakwithi has a fourth, /ʒ/.

Sounds [s, ʃ] may also occur, but only rarely and in a small amount of words.
