Kinyarwanda is a Bantu cross-border language spoken in all regions of Rwanda and beyond its borders mainly in the African Great Lakes region especially in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, in South-Western Uganda and in North-Western Tanzania ( Carte linguistique de la Région des Grands Lacs, Tervuren).
In the neighboring country of Burundi to the south, Kinyarwanda is almost mutually intelligible with Kirundi, the national language of Burundi. The difference between the two languages lies mainly in intonation, in a limited number of vocabulary, and to a lesser extent, in grammar. There may be greater differences between varieties within Kinyarwanda and Kirundi than between the two languages.
Kinyarwanda language is also spoken in Southern Uganda (by Bafumbira people) and in the Southern and Northern Kivu Provinces (Democratic Republic of Congo). Kinyarwanda is also mutually intelligible with Ha, another Bantu language spoken in Tanzania.
