Thaagurda (sometimes writtenDaguda, also calledNugan) is anAustralian Aboriginal language in theMid West region ofWestern Australia.
It is a member of theKartu subgroup of thePama–Nyungan family. According to Marmion (1996), the language has no speakers or individuals who identify with this group as their ethnicity, and there were only a few elderly people who recalled the name and some sentences from the language. This information was however sufficient to indicate that Thaagurda was likely a distinct language from its neighboursNhanda,Malgana andWajarri.
