Boma–Dzing languages

Boma–Dzing

Linguistic classification:	Niger–Congo Atlantic–Congo Benue–Congo Bantoid Bantu (Zone B.80) Boma–Dzing
Subdivisions:	—

The Boma–Dzing languages are a clade of Bantu languages coded Zone B.80 in Guthrie's classification. According to Nurse & Philippson (2003), some of Guthrie's B.80 (Tiene, Mfinu, Mpuono) are related to the Teke languages (B.70), and some Yansi varieties belong with the Yaka languages (H.30), but the rest form a valid node. They are:

Boma, Ding (Dzing, Di), a variety or varieties of Yansi (perhaps Tsong?)
