Also Known As: Beri,Bari


Description:

  Bari is the language of the Sudan Bari . It is spoken by other Bari Speakers like Pojulu, Kakaw, Nyangwara, Mundari and Kuku people. It is an Eastern Nilotic language, and has several dialects. According to the SIL and The Ethnologue, there were 420,000 speakers of Bari in Sudan 2000. (The Ethnologue also lists 60,000 in Uganda, although there is no census year for that datum.) Bari is a tone language. It has vowel harmony, subject-verb-object word order, and agglutinative verbal morphology with some suppletion. A very competent dictionary and grammar were published in the 1930s, but are very difficult to find today. More recently, a dissertation has been published on Bari tonal phonology, and another dissertation on Bari syntax is available. The Bari language in Sudan should not be confused with the Bari language in Columbia and Venezuela. There are four digraphs 'B, 'D, 'Y and Ny.
