Teke–Mbede languages
Proposed language family
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Teke–Mbere is a proposed intermediate group of Bantu languages, coded Zone B.50–80 in Guthrie's classification, along with the erstwhile Mbundu language Songo. According to Nurse & Philippson (2003), they are:
| Teke–Mbere | |
|---|---|
| Linguistic classification | Niger–Congo? |
| Subdivisions | |
| Language codes | |
Ethnologue suggests that the unclassified Songo "dialect" of Yansi (B.80) may be the same as the Songo here.
