The Eastern Grassfields languages, spoken in the Bamenda grassfields of Cameroon, are a branch of Southern Bantoid languages including Bamun, Yamba, and Bamileke.
There are four or five branches to the family:
- Nkambe languages (north)
- Mbam–Nkam
Nurse (2003) reports that Bamileke might be two branches.
