Beti is not a language, it is a group of Bantu languages, spoken by the Beti-Pahuin peoples, who inhabit the rain forest regions of Cameroon, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, and São Tomé and Príncipe.[3] The varieties, which are largely mutually intelligible and variously considered dialects or closely related languages, are:
Beti has an ISO 639-3 code, but this was retired in 2010 because the varieties of Beti already had their own codes.[4]
There is a Beti-based pidgin called Ewondo Populaire.
