Chintang (Chintang: छिन्ताङ् Chintāṅ / Chhintang) is an eastern Kirati language spoken by 5,000 to 6,000 people in Chhintang VDC and Ahale VDC in Dhankuta District, Province No. 1, Nepal. The language has two dialects, Mulgaun and Sambhugaon.[2] Most speakers of Chintang are also fluent speakers of the Indo-European Nepali language, which is the lingua franca of Nepal and the sole language of instruction in school, and the Sino-Tibetan Bantawa language, which is closely related to Chintang.[3][4] The UNESCO World Atlas of Languages classifies the language as definitely endangered.[5]
