Sesotho is also a Bantu language and was and still is used by the Kingdom of Lesotho. Sesotho is very closely related to other languages such as Venda and Tsonga. Except Sesotho is agglutinative and is made up of joined words. Sesotho can be heard in central South Africa.
XitTsonga is the language of the Tsonga tribesmen and it has spread throughout the country. Tsonga may be hard to distinguish from other Bantu languages but it uses a unique way of talking in the 1st, and 3rd person. Tsonga also doesn't make any sense in english because a majority of its words shouldn't be even next to eachother in english grammar.
