The Fer language, one of several languages called "Kara", is a Central Sudanic language spoken by some five thousand people in the northern Central African Republic near the Sudan and Chad borders, in the region known as Dar Runga. While the Ethnologue lists it as unclassified, it is actually classified as a Bongo-Bagirmi language within the Central Sudanic family (Lionel Bender, Pascal Boyeldieu, Roger Blench).
