The Burun languages are a branch of Nilotic proposed by Blench (2012). They had formerly been classified among the Luo languages. They are:
- North Burun (Maiak, Mughaja, Kurmuk)
- South Burun (Mabaan, Ulu, Jumjum)
They are a dialect chain, close enough for some mutual intelligibility between neighboring varieties.
