Sungor (also Assangorior, Assangor, Assangori, Songor, Asongor) is an Eastern Sudanic language of eastern Chad and western Sudan and a member of the Taman branch. It is closely related to Tama with some researchers speaking of a Tama-Assangori continuum.[2][3][4]

Sungor is spoken in an area located to the south of Biltine and to the north of Adré (Ouaddaï) in Chad, as well as in Darfur in Sudan.[5][2] It is spoken by the Sungor people, of which a majority are Muslim.[3] The number of speakers was estimated at 23,500 according to the 1993 census of Chad.[4]
