Ronga language

Língua ronga

XiRonga ', also referred to as Ronga, ShiRonga or GiRonga, is one of the languages ​​originating in the province and city of Maputo in Mozambique. It is part of the Tswa-Ronga branch of Bantu languages. There are about 650,000 speakers in Mozambique and 90,000 in South Africa. Some linguists consider that this language is a form or dialect of the XiTsonga language. At present, the language, which was once the most widely spoken in the country's capital, is threatened by the preponderance of Portuguese and xangana. Local authorities have been taking steps to prevent the decline of this language, making it the language of teaching and work. This language is also known as landim by the Portuguese speakers, since their speakers refer to their language as xilandi. XiRonga', também referido como Ronga, ShiRonga ou GiRonga, é uma das línguas originárias da província e cidade de Maputo, em Moçambique. Faz parte do ramo Tswa-Ronga das línguas bantu. Tem cerca de 650 mil falantes em Moçambique e 90 mil na África do Sul. Alguns linguistas consideram que esta língua é uma forma ou dialecto da língua xiTsonga. Na atualidade a língua, que já foi a mais falada na capital do país, está ameaçada pela preponderância do português e do xangana. As autoridades locais têm vindo a tomar medidas para evitar a decadência deste idioma, tornando-a língua de ensino e de trabalho. Esta língua também é conhecida como landim pelos falantes de português, uma vez que os seus falantes se referem à sua língua como xilandi.
