The Nara language is a Nilo-Saharan language spoken chiefly in western Eritrea.[1] The language is often confused with the Kunama language as they are within the same language family and geographical region. According to Tsige Hailemichael, the "...Nara language is in danger of quickly disappearing."[2]
