Digo (Chidigo) is a Bantu language spoken primarily along the East African coast between Mombasa and Tanga by the Digo people
of Kenya and Tanzania. The ethnic Digo population has been estimated at around 360,000 (Mwalonya et al. 2004), the majority
of whom are presumably speakers of the language. All adult speakers of Digo are bilingual in Swahili, East Africa's lingua
franca. The two languages are closely related, and Digo also has a lot of vocabulary borrowed from neighbouring Swahili dialects. |
