Nalu language

Nalu (nalɛ, nul;[2] also spelled Nalou[3]) is an Atlantic language of Guinea and Guinea-Bissau, spoken by the Nalu people, a West African people who settled the region before the arrival of the Mandinka in the 14th or 15th centuries.

[2] Today, the Nalu speakers are shifting toward the Susu language which is gaining more popularity in Guinea.

Nalu is spoken predominantly on the littorals, or shore regions, of Guinea and Guinea-Bissau.

[11] Most Nalu speakers in Guinea live north of the Nuñez River on the Tristão islands, in the sub-prefecture of Kanfarandé which is the prefecture of Boké.

In Guinea-Bissau, most speakers of Nalu live in the Cacine estuary in the Tombali region.
