Buja-Ngombe languages

African Language Families

The Buja-Ngombe languages are a group of Bantu languages that the linguists Derek Nurse and Gerard Philippson report to form a valid clade, comprising Buja, the Ngombe languages, and Tembo, along with related varieties including Bomboma, Bamwe, Dzando, Gendza and Kula. Two further unclassified Guthrie C.30 varieties, Doko and Londo, are also thought likely to belong to the group.
