(Chi)Tumbuka...
"ChiTumbuka is spoken by an estimated 750,000 people in
northern Malawi and adjacent Zambia.   A Bantu tongue, it is
spoken in several dialects, including that of the Kamanga, or
Henga.   Some consider the Malawi BaTonga to be linguistically
assimilated to the point that they now speak a Tumbuka dialect."
