Mandinka  

Definition

  • Mandinka (Mandingo) is a Mande language spoken by the Mandinka people in Senegal, the Gambia and Guinea-Bissau. Mandinka is written by Latin or Arabic scripts. Mande languages 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.
