Dinka is a Western Nilotic language spoken by the Dinka people of South Sudan, the country's largest ethnic group, mainly across the Bahr el Ghazal region and areas along the White Nile. Major dialect groups include Rek, Bor, Agar and Padang, and the differences between them can be considerable. The language is written in the Latin alphabet with a handful of added letters, and it makes grammatical use of vowel length and voice quality in ways linguists find unusual. Speaker estimates vary widely, but several million people are generally reckoned to speak Dinka. Civil war has driven many speakers abroad, and Dinka-speaking communities now exist in the United States, Australia, Canada and the UK.
