Djadjawurrung (also known as Jaara or Ngurai-illam-wurrung) is an Aboriginal Australian language. It was spoken by the Dja Dja Wurrung people. They are part of the Kulin nation in central Victoria.

The Djadjawurrung language was used by 16 different clans. These clans lived in a wide area. This area stretched from Murchison and the central highlands. It went east to Woodend and west to the Pyrenees mountains. To the north, it reached Boort, and to the south, the Great Dividing Range.
