Linguistically they belong to the Bodo-Naga sub-group of Tibeto-Burman group of Sino-Tibetan language family. Bodo language is one of the scheduled languages of India. It is spoken mainly in Assam and its adjacent areas of North Bengal, Nepal and Bangladesh. Tiwa is mainly spoken in the districts of Nagaon, Morigaon and Kamrup. They are also found in some areas of Karbi Anglong, Lakhimpur and Jorhat districts of Assam and some areas of Meghalaya. The Tiwa language is found only in spoken form.
