Palaka (or ‘Kpalaga’) is a central Senufo language spoken by approximately 8 000 people in northern Ivory Coast. It is bordered to the south by Djimini a southern Senufo language and to the west by Nyarafolo another Senufo language. North and east of the Palaka area live Dioula people. Palaka constitutes a separate branch of the Senufo languages on its own being rather different from them in morphology and phonology.
