The Naga languages are a geographic and ethnic grouping of Tibeto-Burman, spoken mostly by Naga peoples.

Northern Naga languages do not fall within the group, in spite of being spoken by Naga groups; instead, these form part of the Sal languages within Sino-Tibetan, while Southern Naga languages form a branch within Kuki-Chin languages subfamily.
