Shinji (Sinji), or Yungo, is a Bantu language of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, between Mbangala and Yaka.

According to Multitree, the spellings are Şinji (Shinji) and Nuŋgo, rather than Yungo as in Maho (2009),[1] and mentions of the language in the literature are almost entirely in reference to Guthrie.[2]
