This study is an investigation into the comparative phonology and
lexicon of six barely-known Bantu varieties spoken in Kenya. These
varieties (Imenti, Igoji, Tharaka, Mwimbi, Muthambi and Chuka)
belong to the so-called Meru group. The study develops a new
classification of these six dialects. Therefore, a dialectological
approach is used, which includes the analysis of wordlists and
lists of short phrases elicited in the field. From the data,
isoglosses and similarities concerning morpho-phonological
processes are drawn. The results show in which respects the
dialects differ from each other. Thus, the present work contributes
to comparative Bantu linguistics.
