'''Nambisha''' is a village located south of [[Ukhrul]] in Ukhrul district, [[Manipur]] state, India. The village falls under [[Kamjong]] sub division. Nambisha is connected by Ukhrul-Kamjong state highway. The village is flanked by [[Punge]] in the west, [[Kangpat]] in the south, Kongkan Thana in the east and [[Ningchou]] in the north. Locally, the inhabitants speak Nambisha dialect that belongs to the Tibeto-Burman language family. Some researchers are of the view that the dialect spoken by the inhabitants has some affinity to that of the Koireng tribe.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thesangaiexpress.com/page/items/51265/korens-koireng-affinity-with-tribes-inside-and-outside-india|title=Linguistic affinity|publisher=The Sangai Express|accessdate=2015-10-11|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20151222101507/http://www.thesangaiexpress.com/page/items/51265/korens-koireng-affinity-with-tribes-inside-and-outside-india|archivedate=2015-12-22}}</ref>
