Angami-Pochuri languages

Eurasian Language Families

The Angami-Pochuri languages are a small family of Sino-Tibetan languages spoken in southern Nagaland and northern Manipur in northeast India. Conventionally classified as Naga languages, they are not clearly related to other Naga languages and are conservatively classified as an independent branch of Sino-Tibetan, pending further research.

Why this is disputed. Angami-Pochuri is one of the Naga languages within Sino-Tibetan; it is linked directly to Sino-Tibetan here because the intermediate Tibeto-Burman and Naga nodes are not yet represented as their own entities in this atlas.
