The Vunjo language, or Kiwunjo, is a Bantu language, spoken mainly in Tanzania and by some over the border in Kenya, by approximately 300,000 Chaga people(1992 UBS). It is spoken in the Chaga area of the Kilimanjaro region. Vunjo is closely related to the other Chaga languages Rombo, Moshi, and Machame languages, with which it is said to form a dialect continuum.

Famous quotes containing the word language:
“Repeat thy song, till the familiar lines
Are footpaths for the thought of Italy!
Thy flame is blown abroad from all the heights,
Through all the nations, and a sound is heard,
As of a mighty wind, and men devout,
Strangers of Rome, and the new proselytes,
In their own language hear thy wondrous word,
And many are amazed and many doubt.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
