Lunguda (Nʋngʋra) is a Niger–Congo language spoken in Nigeria. They settle western part of Gongola mainly in and around the hills of the volcanic Lunguda Plateau, Adamawa state. Joseph Greenberg counted it as a distinct branch, G10, within the Adamawa family. When Blench (2008) broke up Adamawa, Lunguda was made a branch of the Bambukic languages.[3]
According to the Ethnologue, the current number of speakers is based on an SIL figure of 45,000 from 1973.[1] But recent studies has shown 50,000 in the 2006 census.
Variants of the name Longuda include Languda, Longura, Nunguda, Nungura, Nunguraba.
Dialects
In the Adamawa Languages Project website, Kleinewillinghöfer (2014) lists five dialects in the Longuda dialect cluster.[4]
- Longuda/Lunguda of Guyuk and Wala Lunguda
- Nʋngʋra(ma) of Cerii, Banjiram
- Longura(ma) of Thaarʋ (Koola)
- Nʋngʋra(ma) of Gwaanda (Nyuwar)
- Nʋngʋra(ma) of Deele (Jessu)
Partly due to word taboo customs, there is considerable lexical diversity among Longuda dialects.[5]
Geography
The Lunguda settle in the northeastern part of Nigeria, mostly in Guyuk, Adamawa state in Guyuk LGA, Balanga LGA of Gombe state and some parts of Borno.[citation needed] They have approximately 504,000 according to 2006 population census.
