The Kangjia language (Chinese: 康家语; pinyin: Kāngjiāyǔ) is a Mongolic language spoken by a Muslim population of around 300 people in Jainca (Jianzha) County, Huangnan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai province of China. As to its taxonomic affiliation, Kangjia seems to be an intermediate between Bonan language and Santa language (Dongxiang).[citation needed]
