Pallanganmiddang (Balangamida) is an extinct Aboriginal language of the Upper Murray region of the north east of Victoria (Australia).

The language is not highly similar to any other. Minjambuta may have been a dialect. It has been suggested that the language may be slightly similar to Yota-Yota, Dhudhuroa and several Wiradjuri dialects.
