Yes. There is still a small number of indigenous people who know some of the old languages, but the majority of aboriginal dialects have disappeared.

Prior to European settlement of Australia, there were 250 aboriginal languages spoken in Australia. Today, there are 145 aboriginal languages spoken in Australia, and of these 110 are listed as "critically endangered".
