Korana /kɒˈrɑːnə/ or ǃOra /ˈkɔərə/ (!Gora) is a moribund Khoe language of South Africa. An ethnic Korana population (also called Griqua) of 10000 live in South Africa and perhaps Botswana with perhaps half a dozen elderly speakers as of 2008. Korana is related to Khoekhoe and the sound systems are broadly similar. The strongly aspirated Khoekhoe affricates are simply aspirated plosives [tʰ kʰ] in Korana.
