	Lozi language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lozi, also known as Silozi and Rozi, is a Bantu language (of the Niger-Congo language family) that is spoken by the Lozi people, primarily in southwestern Zambia and in surrounding countries.
		Lozi and its dialects are spoken and understood by approximately six percent of the population of Zambia.
		By that time, the Luyana language had been largely forgotten; the new hybrid language is called Lozi or Silozi and is closer to Sesotho than to any other neighbouring languages in Zambia.

	Language and Learning in Zambia
		Their own local languages, and even in the school s the medium of instruction was in their own local language at least up to the 4th grade.
		By 1950, the language policy in African schools was that the mother tongue was to be used as medium of instruction during the first two years of primary education and a dominant vernacular to be used up to standard Five and thereafter English was to replace the local languages.
		In other words, language is a tool used for the preservation of cultural heritage of the tribe and with it, the clan, the family and the individual.

		Language is the central consideration in localisation, and questions regarding choice of languages to localize, choice of dialect when a language has more than one, and prioritization of languages when there will be work on several, are likely to confront any localisation effort.
		The figure of 2000 languages is often cited for Africa, representing about a third of the living languages of the world.
		A total of 83 languages (grouped) were identified based on their importance in terms of number of speakers and regional use (Dwyer 1987).

		Consequently, speakers of those numerous Zambian languages lacking official status, -- the guess is that there are 73 languages in the country -- feel deprived of their ethnic identity, having to cling to a day-in day-out practice of code switching.
		For Angola, their acknowledgement as languages to be used in primary and adult education is the first such step in the country's history and must, of course, be highly praised.
		The phonology of Mbunda is at notable variance with all the other "Ngangela" languages and would really demand the use of phonetic symbols for the representation of some of its phonemes; in any case an orthographic system different from that proposed by the study group of the Instituto Nacional de Línguas, Luanda.

	Becoming a Better EFL Teacher: November 2005
		For both EFL teachers and ESL or foreign language students, the definition of a language teacher is useful in determining what qualities to seek or strive for when studying English or a foreign language.
		Using language in a relevant context to promote meaningful input and output from the learners is a key aspect of foreign language learning.
		In evaluations that university English and foreign language institute EFL students must take at least three times a semester, the area which is most critical and the one in which they experience the greatest difficulty is listening comprehension.

	A Preliminary Study of the Structure of Lexicon Entries
		Languages with a long written tradition have numerous, richly structured dictionaries.
		We do expect entries in the general format of the Lane dictionary to occur in some circumstances; for instance, a lexicon compiler in the first stages of studying a language might find it useful to make entries in an undifferentiated fashion, with the notion that the data could be sorted out and corrected later.
		We have sought to allow in the general model we have created from this data, as much freedom as a language researcher is likely to want or need, as well as the ability to manage generalizations.

	Michigan State University Press \| An Outline of Silozi Grammar \| George Fortune
		First published as a chapter in Language in Zambia: Grammatical Sketches by the Institute of African Studies (now the Institute of Economic and Social Research) in 1977, this is the second in a series of individual publications on Zambian languages and grammar.
		The intention of the series is to boost the meagre scholarship and availability of educational materials on Zambian languages, which became particularly in urgent in 1996, following the decision of the Zambian government to revert to the policy of using local languages as media of instruction.
		It is spoken on the central Barotse plain to the north and south of Mongu and on either side of the Zambezi river, all the way to Livingstone, where it is the main African language in use, and a considerable distance inland.

	Silozi language
		The earliest known language spoken by the Luyi peoples who came to the the Upper Zambezi Valley in a stepped migration from the Katanga region sometime in the sixteenth/seventeenth century is known as Siluyana.
		Meanwhile, Sikololo became known as Silozi and the dictionaries and language books that are used today are nearly all based on those written down by the Paris missionaries, particularly Adolph Jalla, who was himself an Italian.
		One place where you can be guaranteed of hearing some of the old language is at public appearances of the Litunga and Litunga la Mboela where praise sayers can be heard extolling the virtues of the royal personage during the course of their public appearances.

	Michigan State University Press \| Loanwords in Silozi, Cinyanja and Citonga \| Mubanga Kashoki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		Mubanga Kashoki is a scholar of linguistics and Zambian languages, is Professor of African Languages at the Institute of Economic and Social Research, University of Zambia.
		Specific to the issue of loanwords, the study raises questions about whether loanwords can be regarded as integral to the language in question; and whether besides the words recorded in this study, there are other foreign lexical items that deserve equal recognition as bona fide loanwords.
		The author anticipates that in the longer term this kind of information will materially assist the assemblage of data that will lead to the modernisation of Zambian languages, knowledge about the languages, in their spoken and written forms as living cultures, and the prospects of their ever expanding vocabularies.
