Ngendan Languages

	Ngendan Languages Boan (Buan, ''Ababuan'') is a proposed intermediate group of Bantu languages coded Zones C and D in Guthrie's classification.McMaster, Mary Allen. 1988.

	Nyali Languages The Nyali languages are a clade of Bantu languages coded Zone D.33 in Guthrie's classification. They are: : Budu, Ndaka, Nyali, Vanuma, Mbo They might belong in with the Mbole–Enya languages, but the connection could be with Lengola, which constitutes the Lebonya proposal (Nurse 2003). The Nyali languages were treated as a dialect cluster by Guthrie. ''Ethnologue'' notes that Mbo, Ndaka, Budu, Vanuma, and Nyali are quite close. However, Beeke and Ngbee are more distant; ''Ethnologue'' suggests Beeke is closer to Bali Bali () is a province of Indonesia and the westernmost of the Lesser Sunda Islands.
