Bobo (Bɔbɔ; also known as Bobo Fi, Bobo Fign, Bobo Fing, Bobo Mandaré, Black Bobo) is a major Mande language of Burkina Faso;
the western city of Bobo Dioulasso is named partly for the Bobo people. Bobo consists of: Southern dialects: Syabéré (Sya),
Benge, Sogokiré, Voré, Zara (Bobo Dioula/Jula) Northern AKA Konabéré dialects: Yaba, Sankuma (Sarokama), Jèrè, Tankri, Kure,
Kukoma (Koma). Northern and Southern Bobo share only 20%–30% intelligibility according to Ethnologue, and by that standard
are considered separate languages. The terms Bobo Fing 'Black Bobo' and Bobo Mandaré are used to distinguish them from the
Bobo Gbe 'White Bobo' (the Bomu people of Mali) and the Bobo Oule (the Bwa people of Burkina). |
