The Rukwa languages are a group of Bantu languages established by Nurse (1988)[citation needed] and Fourshey (2002).[citation needed] They constitute half of Guthrie's Zone M, plus Bungu.

Languages

[edit]

The languages, or clusters, along with their Guthrie identifications, are:

Nurse (1988)[citation needed] had established a more limited Mbozi ("Corridor"), without Pimbwe or Bungu, and with the addition of Rungwe tentative.

Maho (2009)[citation needed] adds Penja (possibly extinct), to M30, and Kulwe as closest to Fipa.
