Mmuock (or Mmock) is the Anglicised form of Muòk (IPA: [m̩muɔk])—sometimes written as Mǒk (see next paragraph). The exonym is Bamock. Mmuock is a tribe in the West/Southwest of Cameroon. Belonging to the Bamilike ethnic group, the Mmuock tribe comprises four villages: M'mock Lelieng (Fossung ellelem), Mmuock Fossimondi (M'muockngie), Mmockmbie, and Mmuock Leteh. The first three villages are found in the English-speaking Lebialem Division in the Southwest Region of Cameroon, while Mmock Leleng lies in the french-speaking West Region.
The Mmuock tribe speaks the Mmuock (Mmock) language. Due to dialectal differences, the name of the tribe is pronounced in Mmuock-Leteh and Mmuock-Fossimondi as IPA: [m̩muɔːk], and in the other two villages as IPA: [m̩mok]. As a result, there are two Anglicised spellings: Mmuock and Mmock.
