<b>Description:</b>

Kako or Mkako or Mkaka, is a Bantu language spoken mainly in Cameroon, but also has speakers in the Central African Republic and Congo. The main population centers of Kako speakers includes Batouri and Ndélélé in the East Region of Cameroon.
Once grouped with the Gbaya dialect cluster and often still refereed to as part of a undefined "Gbaya-Kaka" group, Kako is now grouped in the Bantu subgroup of the Niger-Congo language family.
Kako can be divided in three main closely related dialects stretching from eastern dialect (Bεra) near the Bertoua-Doumé area to a middle dialect (Mgbwako) in near the Batouri area to a western dialect (Mbondjóo) near the Cameroon-Central African Republic border area. The difference is the greatest between the eastern Bεra dialect and the western Mbondjóo, with the Mgbwako dialect forming a middle ground.
All three remain mutually intelligable. The Bεra and Mbondjóo dialects have 85.5% of their words in common, of which 26.4% are identical and 59.1% are cognates.
Linguistic and documentary evidence support oral traditions claiming that the people speaking Kako, and thus the language have migrated to their present positions from further east. Current<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=14852858 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
