Yans (Yanzi) is a Bantu language spoken in the Democratic Republic of Congo. There are six language varieties Guthrie classified as Bantu B.85 (Yans). According to Nurse (2003) most belong with the Yaka language though one or two are assigned to Boma–Dzing languages (ex-Yanzi) though he does not say which. Maho (2009) notes that the Tsong variety of Yansi is Ethnologue’s unclassified Songo language and so may be the one that does not belong with the rest.
