	Amdang (autonym: sìmí amdangtí) is a language closely related to Fur spoken in Chad by about 5,000 people (as of 1983), while Ethnologue places the number in 2000 at 41,000.

There are also small colonies of speakers in Darfur near Woda'a and Fafa, and in Kordofan in the Abu Daza district and at Magrur north of Bara. Most of the ethnic group now speaks Arabic.
