Hehe language : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hehe language
Hehe is a Bantu language spoken by the Hehe people of the Iringa region of Tanzania, lying south of the Great Ruaha River.〔 It was reported to have "Ngoni" features, that is, words of a Zulu-like language introduced when conquered by a Nguni or Zulu-like people in the early 19th century. However, other "Ngoni" speeches seem to have lost most of these distinctive features over the past 150-odd years, the language more resembling those of the neighbouring peoples. In 1977 it was estimated that 190,000 people spoke Hehe. There has been some Bible translation (British and Foreign Bible Society). Hehe may be mutually intelligible with Bena.〔Dwyer, D.

Prepublication Edition. http://www.eric.ed.gov/PDFS/ED256170.pdf〕 Hehe has 15 noun classes (akin to the genders of European languages); it marks this class with a prefix.〔David Odden, ''Introducing Phonology'' (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005), 177.〕 ==References==
