Linguistic classification	Nilo-Saharan? Eastern Sudanic? Astaboran? Taman; ; ;
Glottolog	tama1329

The Taman languages form a putative branch of the Eastern Sudanic language family spoken in Chad and Sudan, though Glottolog notes that "no conclusive, methodologically sound basis for assigning Tama to Eastern Sudanic" has been presented.[1]

The languages are:

Tama
- Mararit (Ibiri, Abu Charib)
- (other)
  - Miisiirii
  - Tama–Sungor
    - Sungor (Assangori, incl. Erenga)
    - Tama (Damut)

Claude Rilly (2010)[2] includes reconstructions for Proto-Taman.
