The '''Juang language''' is a [[Munda languages|Munda]] language of the [[Austroasiatic language|Austroasiatic]] language family spoken primarily by the [[Juang people]] of [[Odisha]] state, eastern [[India]].<br />
<br />
==Classification==<br />
The Juang language belongs to the [[Munda languages|Munda language family]], the whole of which is classified as a branch of the greater [[Austroasiatic languages|Austroasiatic language family]]. Among the Munda languages, Juang is considered to be most closely related to [[Kharia language|Kharia]], although Anderson considers Juang and Kharia to have split off from each other relatively early.<ref name=e18>{{Ethnologue18|jun}}</ref><br />
<br />
Juang can be roughly divided into the Hill and Plains varieties, both of which are spoken in [[Odisha]] (Patnaik 2008:508).<br />
*'''Hill Juang''': Gonasika Hills (in [[Keonjhar district]]) and Pallara Hills<br />
*'''Plains Juang''': about 147 villages in southern [[Keonjhar district]] and eastern [[Dhenkanal district]]<br />
<br />

Juang is spoken by about 30,875 people according to the 2001 Indian census. In [[Odisha]] state, it is spoken in southern [[Keonjhar district]], northern [[Angul district]], and eastern [[Dhenkanal district]] (Patnaik 2008:508).<br />
<br />
Juang is currently an [[Endangered language]] and is considered to vulnerable, or (not spoken by children outside of home).<br />
<br />
Juang currently has roughly under 20,000 speakers remaining<br />
<br />
