Ndonga (also called Oshiwambo, Otjiwambo, or Owambo) is a Bantu language spoken in Namibia and some parts of Angola. It is grouped with the closely related Kwanyama. The total number of Ndonga speakers is estimated to be roughly 690,000.
The Rev. Martti Rautanen, a Christian missionary, translated the Bible into the Ndonga language [1].
