Lambya (Rambia) is a Bantu language of Tanzania and Malawi. In Northern Malawi it is spoken particularly in the Chitipa District.〔University of Malawi Language Mapping Survey for Northern Malawi (2006) (see External links).〕 Sukwa, once thought to be a dialect of Nyakyusa, is a dialect of Lambya.〔Nurse, Derek (1988) "The Diachronic Background to the Language Communities of South Western Tanzania" in ''Sprache und Geschichte in Afrika'' vol 9, 15-115.〕 The University of Malawi Language Mapping Survey for Northern Malawi (2006), agreeing with this, found that Cilambya, Cindali, and Cisukwa form a single dialect group, although there are differences between them. For example: *Person = umunthu, umundu, umundu *Grasshopper = imphanzi, imbashi, imbasi *Scorpion = kalizga, kalisha, kalisya *Maize = ivilombe, ifilombe, ifilombe The Language Mapping Survey gives further vocabulary and also a short text (the Tortoise and the Hare) in all three dialects.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lambya language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
