The Kembra language is an unclassified Papuan language spoken in Western New Guinea by some twenty persons. It appears to
be used by 20% to 60% of the ethnic population and is no longer passed down to children, which makes it an endangered language
In 2007, on a Papuan language website, a Mark Donohue reported that, Murkim [and and] Lepki [and and] Kembra are, along with
a number of other languages, unclassified groups living between the main cordillera and Mt. 6234, in the north of Papua near
the PNG border (where 'near' = up to about 6 days' walk). They don't appear to be related to each other, based on wordlists,
and they don't appear to show external affiliations. http://mailman. anu. edu. au/pipermail/papuanlanguages/2007-May/000142.
