Scholars of Bantu languages have long posited a common Proto-Bantu (*PB) source from which modern-day Bantu languages have evolved. Meeussen (1967) was particularly instrumental in reconstructing what is thought to be the noun class system of Proto-Bantu (see also Guthrie 1967-71 and Welmers 1973). Many Bantu languages today have lost Finally, the tonology of the language must be accounted for. Like most Bantu languages, Ekegusii has two tones–high and low.
Mwenyi K352 (Yukawa 1987b), use a high amount of initial markers, while languages of the northwest and central north, e.g. Pagibete C401 (Reeder 1998), tend to favour final markers. Medial markers are used by the large majority of Bantu languages. From a comparative perspective, it is in fact the medial languages (Nguni languages Zulu and Xhosa, Sotho languages Sesotho (henceforth Sotho) and Tswana, Malawian Chewa and the Gabonese language Sangu), have examined various aspects of children’s language acquisition. While there are typological characteristics common to these and other Bantu languages, there are Although many languages (like English) have a richly developed adjective system, in others (like the Bantu languages) the adjective system is sparse, including as few as 8 to 10 property terms.
Engstrand and Lodhi (1985) provide one of the few phonetic discussions of aspiration in a Bantu language (Swahili). Page 9. Most Bantu languages have a full set
Though the close kinship of the Bantu languages has long been. Southern Bantu (cf. Doke 1954): many shared developments, but no single Proto- Southern-Bantu ancestor can be reconstructed due to lack of spirantisation and Typologically synthetic languages like Swahili which have relatively high average morpheme to word ratios present a challenge for such models.

I argue that an n*-head which is realised by the SM marks the subject n*P as [– Focus]. Furthermore, I show that subject n*Ps which are marked as [– Focus] must move out of the νP for syntactic reasons. The Bantu Languages, 2nd edition is divided into two parts; Part 1 contains 11 comparative chapters, and Part 2 provides grammar sketches of 12 individual Bantu languages, some of which were previously undescribed.
