Lugha za Kikushi
Lugha za Kikushi ni kati ya lugha za Kiafrika-Kiasia. Zinatumika hasa katika Pembe la Afrika na nchi za jirani, kuanzia Misri na Sudan hadi Kenya na Tanzania, lakini zamani zilitumika katika maeneo makubwa kuliko leo.
Jina linatokana na Kush, mtu wa Biblia anayetajwa kama babu wa makabila ya aina hiyo.
Leo lugha kubwa zaidi katika kundi hilo ni Kioromo (35,000,000), kikifuatwa na Kisomali (18,000,000). Baadhi yake zimeshakufa.
