Xaasongaxango

The Kassonke (Khassonké) language, Xaasongaxango (Xasonga) is a Manding language spoken by the Khassonké and Malinke of western Mali. Kassonke is an official language in Mali. Western and Eastern Maninka are 90% mutually intelligible, though distinct from the Mandinka (Malinke) of southern Senegal, which is a national language there. Manding languages are a sub-branch of Mande languages that are part of the hypothetical Niger-Congo language family. However, as the Mande languages lack the noun-class morphology, linguists increasingly treat Mande and Atlantic–Congo as independent language families and reject the Niger-Congo hypothesis.
