Elomwe
Lomwe
Atlantic-Congo (Bantu, Makua-Lomwe)
Lomwe (Elomwe in Mozambique, Cilomwe in Malawi) is a Bantu language of the Makua-Lomwe (P30) cluster, closely related to Makhuwa (vmw). The Lomwe of southern Malawi descend from Mozambican migrants who fled forced labour on Portuguese plantations in the late 19th-early 20th centuries. Despite its large speaker base, Lomwe lacks formal recognition in either country; the NELIMO orthography (Núcleo de Estudo de Línguas Moçambicanas, 1989) is the Mozambican standard.
