Dyirringañ, also spelt Dyirringany and Djiringanj, is an Australian Aboriginal language of the Yuin people of New South Wales.
Although it is not listed in Bowern (2011), the people are ethnically Yuin. The only attestation of the language are manuscripts and grammar, dating from 1902. It is sometimes classified with Thawa, as a dialect of Southern Coastal Yuin.
Bermagui Public School, a primary school in Bermagui, has taught local Aboriginal languages including Djiringanj and the Dhurga language, along with the associated cultures, since 2019.{{cite web | last=Milton | first=Vanessa | title=Bermagui students help reawaken Aboriginal languages | website=ABC News| publisher= Australian Broadcasting Corporation | date=3 June 2021 | url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-06-04/bermagui-students-help-reawaken-aboriginal-languages/100186188 | access-date=21 June 2021}}
