Pertame or Southern Arrernte is a Central Australian language that belongs to the country around the Finke and Hugh Rivers, 110km South of Alice Springs. Pertame country starts at Running Waters (Irpmangkera) and follows the Finke River (Lhera Pinta) down to the community of Finke. Pertame is a severely endangered language. There are currently less than 10 fluent speakers of Pertame, all over the age of 50. Pertame language has suffered through the process of colonisation, punitive language policies and the stolen generation. As a result, intergenerational language transmission has ceased.
