Mimi of Nachtigal, or Mimi-N, is a language of Chad that is attested only in a word list labelled "" that was collected ca. 1870 by Gustav Nachtigal. Greenberg (1960) classified it as a Maban language, though a distant one. Subsequent researchers have supported a remote relationship, though there is little data to go on.
