TheDigaro (Digarish),Northern Mishmi (Mishmic), orKera'a–Tawrã^[1] languages are a possible small family of possiblySino-Tibetan languages spoken by theMishmi people of southeasternTibet andArunachal Pradesh.

The languages areIdu andTaraon (Digaro, Darang). Lexical similarities are restricted to certain semantic fields, so a relationship between them is doubtful.^[2]

They are not related to the Southern MishmiMidzu languages, apart from possibly being Sino-Tibetan. However, Blench and Post (2011) suggests that they may not even be Sino-Tibetan, but rather an independent language family of their own.

Blench (2014) classifies the Digaro languages as part of theGreater Siangic group of languages.

Autonyms and exonyms for Digaro-speaking peoples, as well asMiju (Kaman), are given below (Jiang, et al. 2013:2-3).

Idu,Tawra,Kman, andMeyor all share a system of multiple language registers, which are (Blench 2016):^[3]

1. ordinary speech
2. speech of hunters: lexical substitution, the replacement of animal names and others by special lexical forms, and sometimes short poems
3. speech of priests/shamans: more complex, involving much language which is difficult to understand, and also lengthy descriptions of sacrificial animals
4. poetic/lyrical register (not inIdu, but appears inKman)
5. mediation register (only inIdu?)
6. babytalk register
