Vengo is a member of the South Ring Grassfields group of Southern Bantoid languages. It is spoken by about 27,000 people in the village of Babungo (Vengo) on the Ndop plain in the Ngoketunjia Division of the North West Region of Cameroon.
Vengo is also known Babungo, Vengoo, Vengi, Pengo, Ngo, Nguu, Ngwa or Nge. Vengo speakers call their language gháŋ vəŋóo ("language of the Vengo") and they call their village vəŋóo.
There are ways to write Vengo written with the Latin alphabet based on the General Alphabet of Cameroon Languages, which was adopted in 1979 by the National Committee for the unification and harmonisation of the alphabets of Cameroon languages. The one shown below was devised by Gratien Gualbert Atindogbe in 2003.
