The Eastern Grassfields languages, spoken in the Western High Plateau of Cameroon, are a branch of the Grassfields languages including Bamun, Yamba and Bamileke.
There are four or five branches to the family:
Nkambe languages (north)
Mbam–Nkam (south)
Ngemba languages
Bamileke languages
Nun languages
Nurse (2003) reports that Bamileke might be two branches.[citation needed]
