The Kolhari language (Kolhari: ꡢꡡꡘꡦꡘꡋꡟ, qorar-nu) is a language spoken by roughly 40,000,000 people, mostly of Kolhari descent and primarily in Kolhar, where it is the official language. It is part of the Kolharic language family. There have been many attempts to link Kolharic languages to other language families, but none have been accepted by the academic community.
