Kare (Kãrɛ̃ Kareng) is an Mbum language of the Central African Republic There are a few thousand speakers in Cameroon. Ethnologue 17 reports that Kare is intelligible with Mbum proper. However languages more closely related to either are not reported to be intelligible. Ethnologue lists Tale (Tali) as a dialect but Blench (2004) leaves it unclassified within the Mbum languages. Ethnologue also lists Kali as a synonym; Blench lists a Kali language in a different branch of the Mbum languages.
