Eastern Nilotic languages : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eastern Nilotic languages
The Eastern Nilotic languages are one of the three primary branches of the Nilotic languages, themselves belonging to the Eastern Sudanic subfamily of Nilo-Saharan; they are believed to have begun to diverge about 3,000 years ago, and have spread southwards from an original home in Equatoria in South Sudan. They are spoken across a large area in East Africa, ranging from Equatoria to the highlands of Tanzania. Their speakers are mostly cattle herders living in semi-arid or arid plains. ==Classification== According to Vossen (1982), the Eastern Nilotic languages are basically classified as follows by the comparative method. *Bari languages * Teso–Lotuko–Maa: * *Teso–Turkana (or Ateker; incl. Karimojong) * *Lotuko–Maa: * * *Lotuko languages * * * *Lango language * * * *Lopit language * * * *Lokoya language * * * *Lotuko language * * * *Dongotono language * * *Ongamo–Maa * * * * Ongamo language * * * * Maa languages * * * * * Maasai language (see also Mukogodo-Maasai) * * * * * Camus language * * * * * Samburu language (see also Elmolo-Samburu) It is generally agreed upon that Bari forms a primary branch, but lower-level splits are less clear.
