De Schryver (1999) proposes a slightly different map of localisation of speakers in DRC:

There are also locations for Kisongye (Songe [sop]), Kanyok [kny], Kilubà (Luba-Katanga [lub]) and Kaonde [kqn].

Dear Olivier,

Thank you for this information about the location of speakers of Tshiluba (Cilubà) [lua] and other related languages in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The Ethnologue cartographers will take a look at the De Schryver map for possible changes or updates on the DRC map.

Best regards,

Chuck Fennig
Managing Editor, Ethnologue
