Barolong

/ˌbɑroʊˈlɔŋ/ noun

Definition

A Bantu people of southern Africa, or the language spoken by this people.

Etymology

From Bantu languages of southern Africa, with 'Baro' or 'Barua' meaning the people and their linguistic group designation.

Kelly Says

The Barolong people have a rich history in South Africa and Botswana, and their name contains the linguistic marker 'ba-' which in Bantu languages means 'people,' so 'Barolong' literally means 'the people of Rolong'!
