North Midland Tasmanian, or Tyerrernotepanner ("Cheranotipana"), was an
aboriginal language of northeastern
Tasmania, along the
Tamar River and inland of
Ben Lomond and
Great Oyster Bay.
Tyerrernotepanner is attested in the 125 words of the
Port Dalrymple vocabulary collected by J.-P. Gaimard in the Tamar River region. It is most closely related to
Northeastern Tasmanian, and Bowern considers it a variety of that language.
