Ongota also known as Birale or Birayle or Ifa'ongota is a critically endangered language spoken in Southwest Ethiopia.
Ongota language has approximately 56 native speakers.
The language is being abandoned in favour of neighbouring Ts’amakko (Cushitic) and is only spoken by Ongota elders
We are on a mission to document and preserve all native languages in Africa and help many people learn these languages while at it.
Join the movement by adding definitions in your mother tongue.
Your name will forever be carved in history as the person who kept that word alive.
Hundreds of native speakers are adding definitions every single day.
Comprehensive instructions on how to contribute are available in the Help Page
If you can help us accomplish this mission in any other way, say you wan't to become a sponsor, provide recordings or written text of your language or suggest corrections/additions to the data on this page, feel free to reach out to us here: [email protected].
