Ruuli language

Ruuli (also spelled as Ruruuli-Lunyala, Ruli, Luruuri-Lunyara, Ruruli-Lunyara, Ruruli-Runyala, and Luduuli) is the Bantu language spoken by the Baruuli and Banyala people of Uganda primarily in Nakasongola and Kayunga districts. It is closely related to the Nyoro language.

Ruruuli and Lunyala are two major varieties of the language that have approximately ninety percent mutual intelligibility. The Baruuli and Banyala people are considered to be two separate ethnic groups although both communities have very similar cultural practices, for example with names and the nomenclature systems.
