Runyoro
Nyoro
Atlantic-Congo (Bantu, JE Runyakitara)
Nyoro (Runyoro) is a Bantu language of the JE (Great Lakes) zone, spoken in western Uganda — principally in Hoima, Masindi, Kibaale, and Kakumiro districts — by the Banyoro people, the principal population of the historical Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom. With Tooro it forms the Runyoro-Rutooro pair (mutually intelligible), and is closely related to Nyankole and Kiga in the Runyakitara cluster. Bunyoro-Kitara was the dominant interlacustrine empire from the 13th-17th centuries before being eclipsed by Buganda. Latin script with five-vowel + length system.
