O QUE SIGNIFICA NIGER-CONGO EM INGLÊS
Línguas do Níger-Congo
As línguas do Níger-Congo constituem uma das principais famílias linguísticas do mundo, e a África é a maior em termos de área geográfica, número de falantes e número de línguas distintas. Eles podem constituir a maior família de linguagem do mundo em termos de linguas distintas, embora essa questão seja complicada pela ambiguidade sobre o que constitui uma linguagem distinta. Uma característica comum da maioria das línguas do Níger-Congo é o uso de um sistema de classe substantiva. As línguas Níger-Congo mais faladas por número de falantes nativos são Yoruba, Igbo, Fula, Shona e Zulu. O mais falado pelo número total de falantes é Swahili. Alguns estudiosos duvidaram se o Níger-Congo é uma unidade genética válida ou, em vez disso, um agrupamento tipológico, mas a maioria dos especialistas hoje considera que é uma família válida, embora não haja consenso sobre a subclassificação.
