Tsogo languages

Tsogo
Okani
Linguistic classification: Niger–Congo
Subdivisions:

The Tsogo languages are a clade of Bantu languages coded Zone B.30 in Guthrie's classification. According to Nurse & Philippson (2003), the languages form a valid node. They are:

Tsogo, Himba (Simba), Pinzi, Vove, Kande

Nurse & Philippson also include (B.10) Myene, following Piron (1997) who makes Tsogo–Myene together a divergent branch of Bantu, though elsewhere Myene alone is accounted one of the most divergent of the Bantu languages.[1]
