The '''Gonga languages''', or '''Kefoid languages''', belong to the [[Afro-Asiatic family]] and are spoken in [[Ethiopia]]. As of present, the [[Kafa language|Kafacho]] (southwestern Ethiopia), [[Shekkacho language|Shekkacho]] (southwestern Ethiopia), [[Boro language (Ethiopia)|Boro Shinasha]] (northwestern Ethiopia), [[Anfillo language|Anfillo]] (western Ethiopia) are the speakers of the Gonga languages. [[Bosha language|Bosha]] is extinct. The people were living together some 400 years ago, and because of different social, environmental, economic and political factors they disintegrated by migrating to their respective current places.<ref>Raymond G.
