Abstract
This paper brings out an understanding of Yolŋu bodyness and languageness. People of respective Yolŋu clan nations from east Arnhemland have their distinct and collectively owned language and practice of their body; ŋurru ŋarra ŋänitj (my nose is honey bee) for example. Dr Waymamba and Muthamuluwuy present a different way of doing their bodyness and of doing languageness. How could Yolŋu body be constituted and embodied in their world, and how do their different bodies embody their world in the form of language?
