4501. Jacobs, 1., and Omeonga, B. LONKUCU: TEXTE ET LEXIQUE (Iwaji, KJ>IE, Kasai Oriental, R. D. Du Congo). Annales iEquatoria. 2004, 25:303-316. The Bankucu (Ankfucu) live in the eastern part of the Territoire de Kole which is situated in the Kasai Oriental Province. Our investigations on the Lonkucu language took place at Iwaji, a village of the Luculu group. The villages of this group are situated near the road between Bena Dibele and KJ> IE. The present study contains text and a word list. The text is the transcription of a tape recording. The word list is composed of substantives end verbs. The Lonkucu idiom belongs to the zone C according to the Classification of the Bantu Languages by M. Guthrie. This zone is subdivided into 8 groups of idoms. Tetela, Kusu and Nkucu have been classified together in one of these groups.
