"As far as could be gathered, the Nteng language remains vigorous and is still spoken by children on a regular basis." (3)
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
"Nteng is spoken in a group of eight villages, west of Gorom. These villages are Nteng itself, Gyeer, Ɗoop, Kelaghan, Loon, Kwakii, Zhep Morop and Gorom (though this is predominantly Bwal-speaking). None of these villages except Gorom are identified in any cartographic source." (2)
