The 250 or so Narrow Bantu languages are conventionally divided up into geographic zones first proposed by Malcolm Guthrie (1967–1971). These were assigned letters A–S and divided into decades (groups A10 A20 etc.); individual languages were assigned unit numbers (A11 A12 etc.) and dialects further subdivided (A11a A11b etc.).
