Bosha is an extinct Omotic language of Ethiopia. Ethnologue lists it as a dialect of the Northern Omotic Kafa language, but notes that it may be a distinct language. Other sources list it as unclassified.[1] The Bosha state, the Kingdom of Garo, was a culturally Gonga enclave within the southern Oromo area.
