Iramba, also known as Nilamba (there is no distinction between [ɾ] and [l]) is a Bantu language spoken by the Nilamba and Iambi people of the Iramba District in the Singida Region of Tanzania.
The 50,000 Iambi speak a slightly divergent dialect, sometimes listed as a distinct language. On the other hand, the Isanzu language is sometimes included as a dialect.
