Tira, also called Tiro or Thiro is a Kordofanian language that is spoken in Kordofan in Sudan.

It belongs to the group of Heiban languages ​​within the Niger -Congo language family.

Since the speakers were exposed to a strong Islamic Arab assimilation pressure from the Sudan Arabs, the number of speakers of the language is declining: The speakers are increasingly about to take over the Arab high-level language as a mother tongue and so also teach their children.
