Ngoni is a dead Bantu language of Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique. Since the Ngoni men who fled from South Africa were only men with no women, when they arrived in Malawi, they married different tribes. Children born from these mothers adopted their mother language than their fathers'. As of 2025, there are no Ngoni speakers in Malawi and Zambia, as even Ngoni chieves speak other languages such as Chitumbuka and Chichewa, but on Ngoni traditional ceremonies.
