TheKatla languages are two to three closely related languages that form a smalllanguage family in theNuba Hills of Sudan. Part of an erstwhileKordofanian proposal, they are of uncertain position within the hypothetical Niger–Congo family. They do not share the characteristic morphology of Niger–Congo, such as thenoun-class system. ThusRoger Blench classifies them as a divergent branch of Niger–Congo outside theAtlantic–Congo core. A similar situation holds for another Kordofanian family,Rashad; these are not closely related to Katla.
