Nai or Biaka is a language of Papua New Guinea. It is spoken in Amanab District, Sandaun Province, in three villages: Konabasi, Biaka, and Amini.

Due to an alignment error in the published data, Nai (as Biaka) was mistakenly placed in a spurious family with the Fas language Baibai; this was then linked back to the Kwomtari family as "Kwomtari–Baibai". (See Kwomtari–Fas languages for details.)
