Sonjo or Temi is a Bantu language spoken in northern Tanzania 30–40 miles west of Lake Natron. Ethnolinguistically it is a displaced member of Guthrie’s E50 group most other members of which are found in Central Kenya. Within that group it is most closely related to Gikuyu. The Sonjo people number about 30000 (2002 SIL); many of them are bilingual in Swahili the local language of education. Sonjo is largely undescribed.
