Ghale is a
dialect cluster of Nepal that may be part of the Tamangic family. The people who speak them are ethnically Tamang, but their languages are too poorly known to be sure.[clarification needed] The two languages, Kutang (Bihi, Chak, Rana) and Ghale
(Barpak, Kyaura, Laprak, Khorla, Uiya, Jagat, Philim, Nyak), might each be considered more than one language.
