Soga, or Lusoga, is a Bantu language spoken in Uganda. It is the native language of the Soga people of the Busoga region of southern Uganda. With three million speakers, it is one of the major languages of Uganda, after English, Swahili, and Luganda. However, it is largely restricted to the Busoga region, which is mainly within the natural boundaries of Lake Victoria to the south, Lake Kyoga to the north, the Nile river to the west and the Mpologoma (Lion) river to the east of Namutumba district. Like most Bantu languages, it is tonal.
