Dyangadi is a possible small family of extinct or nearly extinct Australian Aboriginal languages of New South Wales:
- Nganyaywana AKA Anaiwan
- Dyangadi AKA Burgadi
They were once included among the Kuric languages.
However, Bowern (2011) retains Dyangadi in Kuric, removing only Nganyaywana as a separate Anewan branch.
