Tso language

Tso (Tsóbó, Lotsu, Cibbo) is one of the Savanna languages of eastern Nigeria.

Dialects
The language is known as nyi tsó, while the people are known as Tsobo [tsó-bó]. The ethnic subgroups are,
 * Bərbou
 * Swaabou
 * Gusobu

A subsection of the Gusobu may also live in Luzoo settlement.

Each ethnic subgroup speaks a different Tso dialect. The Swaabou and Gusobu reportedly have trouble understanding each other. Tso lexical diversity is partly due to the tradition of word tabooing.
