Atong (A’tong) is a Tibeto-Burman language related to Koch Rabha and Garo. It is spoken in the South Garo Hills and West Khasi Hills districs of Meghalaya state in Northeast India and adjacent areas in Bangladesh. The correct spelling Atong is based on the way the speakers themselves pronounce the name of their language. There is no glottal stop in the name and it is not a tonal language.
