Teke–Mbere is a proposed intermediate group of Bantu languages, coded Zone B.50–80 in Guthrie's classification, along with the erstwhile Mbundu language Songo. According to Nurse & Philippson (2003), they are:

• Nzebi (B.50)
• Mbete (B.60)
• Teke (B.70–80)
• Songo (H.20)

This article needs attention from an expert in Linguistics. The specific problem is: Teke–Mbede (as in title) or Teke–Mbere (as in lead section)?. (October 2023)

Ethnologue suggests that the unclassified Songo "dialect" of Yansi (B.80) may be the same as the Songo here.
